Aim: Win a Cord surfboard, a Finisterre wettie & more to raise essential funds for Centrepoint – helping young people facing homelessness

There's no place like home

Markie is our shaper from home. A hard charging Cornish surfer with board building in his DNA, he  heads up the iconic Cord Surfboards based in Wheal Kitty. That top shot is of Markie testing out one of his shapes. 

The crew at Finisterre HQ are just opposite. Champions of cold water adventure, their natural rubber Yulex wetsuits keep us toasty as the mercury dips. 

It got us thinking about the notion of home and what it means for those facing the prospect of winter without somewhere warm to go.

That’s why this year, through the LS/FF x BED & BOARD prizedraw, we have a CORD Surfboard & Finsiterre Wetsuit up for grabs to raise essential funds in support of Centrepoint – a charity that helps young people who are facing homelessness.

The Board

Win a hand shaped CORD twin fin fish: The Flying Vee.

“Great in waves up to 6 foot, “The Flying Vee” has a wider plan shape and flatter rocker meaning its a great paddler and has great acceleration and drive from the flatness through the wide swallow tail,” explains Markie.

“This thing will get you going super fast down the line with little effort and its impeccable rail to rail game comes thanks to its deep spiral vee between the twin boxes inspiring the boards name. This means better turns for you in critical sections and better cutting back on flatter sections.”

The Wetsuit

We’re stoked to partner with Finisterre – not least because of their commitment to seeking out those materials that help us as surfers limit the impact we have on the world around us. Their wetsuits are made from 100% sustainably sourced natural rubber - aka YULEX. They don’t compromise on the important things like warmth and flexibilty. You just have to check out the likes of Noah Lane, Sally McGee or Mike Lay surfing to see how good the suits are. There's a men's and a women's 5mm winter suit up for grabs.
