It’s the most compact one of our wave boards.
It’s the board for those intermediate level wave sailors that want to improve their wave sailing and really get into it!
It’s just easy; easy and fun!
And yet … as a surprise to us all, it can do much more than expected.

“You know how it is: two young kids and a job or business, right? I’ve hardly got time for anything! So when I have got some time to escape for a session, the conditions are what they are, and you simply have to make the most of them.
You just want to have fun!
Thanks to Ben, a customer from Tenerife that pushed me to try the Happy in stronger winds and bigger waves, I discovered the real magic of this board.
It’s a real surfboard in waves. The way it accelerates in the bottom turn; the speed it generates and how carvy or snappy it is in the top turn… It simply has no comparison or rival in the industry.”
“Planing abilities?”
Well, because of its wide tail, you’re going to be the first one planing … and you will always be planing!
“Turn-ability, Riding or Gybing?”
Easy, like never before! Contrary to what most of people think, the wide tail turns with less effort than a regular wide tail, because of what we like to call The Lever Effect. As a result, very little pressure applied through the tips of your toes will make The Happy turn just like that!
The half arc moon tail adds lots of grip and control, acting almost like two pintails.
Last but not least (and better than all our expectations), thanks to its more pronounced bottom shape, in high winds it’s the board that eats chop like nothing else, allowing you to maintain speed and jump effortlessly, whilst giving you the smoothest ride ever!
So, don’t simply pigeon-hole this board into the Stubby shape category; it’s a regular board that will just make you Happy!

SHAPE
The shape of the HAPPY is based on parallel rails that define the outline.
Its a compact-concept board – Short, thick, easy and fun: a skate board to windsurf on.
The extreme tail width, kept thin in the rails, allows to maintain feeling and connection on a waveface.
The thicker mid/front part of the board allows the ease of use while getting through the shore break.
This combination makes this board feel balanced from the first moment you step on it.
``Waves are soft and winds are light? Its Perfect! As everything in life, its all about Attitude. The right tool will help you, so pull it out! Leave the water with a big Smile. Be Happy!``

MORE DETAILS
TAIL SHAPE / ARC – HALF MOON
Back to maximizing rail length, maintaining some width, and removing some area behind the fins.
It almost could be compared to having 2 pin tails, combining grip with the effortless of turning ability of the wide tail.
BOTTOM SHAPE
A deep monoconcave starting around the nose area, maxing at the mast track transforming into a very pronounced double concave between the feet, then ending in an almost flat Vee in the tail.
Why?
The mono concave makes the water flow sucking the bottom surface of the board to the water, allowing control of the board in any hard, windy or choppy conditions.
The stronger pronounced double concave, compared to the other boards of the range, is there to help the board turn easier and keep the grip, as the board is wider.
RAILS
Our rails are very sharp from the tail to the back center of the board, pulling in progressively until they are rounded all the way to the nose of the board.
Why?
This is very simple to explain; the sharp rails on the tail, creates the lift and release to let the fins work and allow direction change with no effort to also give you the extra release on a top turn.
The rounded rails beginning right after your front foot, make the board bite the water and hold on to the surface on a gybe or bottom turn, giving you the amount of control you need to fulfill your turn.
THE ROCKER
All our boards are made to plane early, generate a lot of top end speed for high jumps and always maintain the control of the board, no matter what sort of conditions.
If you are just cruising around, or committing to the bottom turn of your life or going for the highest jump, you can do so with shut eyes.
The Rocker combined with the bottom shape make the board truly alive.
FIN BOXES
The Happy compared to the other 2 boards of the range, will only be available as a thruster set up.
The speciality of this board does not allow a lot of margin to play with other fin set ups, it works amazing as a thruster ticking all the boxes we were looking for and we can’t afford to offer something that does not work as good.
FINS
We recommend our boards to be used with the genuine Bruch G10 fins.
G10 is the most durable construction of a fin, but not only that, we have found the best compromise between durability and flex of the fin.
This will step up your game once again.
Through our package, you benefit from a great deal on some incredible fins as part of the purchase.

Next-level windsurfing board technology
Our Premium Responsive Carbon Construction (PRCC) is the result of many years of experience and hard work, dedicated to finding the perfect combination of light weight, flex and durability. It is used exclusively in all our boards.
While our competitors offer a wide range of constructions on different quality levels, our goal has been to solely develop and build the best windsurfing boards possible, to enjoy for many years.
At Bruch Boards we only use the most exclusive materials, taking our Responsive Carbon Technology to a quality level unmatched on the windsurfing market.
Pigments in the Resin and Ceramic Gel Code for the Rails
In the final lamination process we use color pigments to put into our resin, this way we hardly use paint sprayed onto our boards. To be exact, we use only 60 grams of paint for the whole board. Like that we reduce the weight and avoid paint chipping off when touching sharp objects, to maintain a great look for a long time.
The final touch are the rails: We add a ceramic gel code to harden up the first layer, which is the most exposed to scratches, when putting down your board coming off the water.
We want your board to maintain a shiny look for many many years!
Premium Bruch pads & footstraps
High quality straps with double velcro for adjustments and a stiff strong belt inside to maintain a well shaped, round strap on the board.
This will allow you to always keep the feeling of control trough your feet.
The board will react immediately once you initiate any type of pressure onto it, either for your bottom turn, top turn or gybe.
Soft neoprene around the stiff belt and no hard edges, a joy for your feet that you will always appreciate.
Once in the strap, the combination of 5mm sponch for softness and 6mm “HPE” pad will surprise you in therms of grip and comfortableness.
Deck & bottom 100% Biax Carbon 45º
We only offer 1 technology, because it is the best in performance, durability, flex and to maintain the “alive” feeling of the board. The “Responsive Carbon Construction”.
The “Responsive Carbon Construction”, is a full “Biax Carbon 45º” lamination of the deck and bottom of the board.
45º means, that the webbing of the carbon fibers, on the carbon matt, have a 45º angle when they are webbed together.
Applying this onto the board in a unidirectional way during the lamination process, thanks to this 45º angle, you will reduce stiffness and will allow the board to have a certain amount of flex, which is important when landing a jump or initiating a bottom turn or jibe.
All we want is a smooth ride!
Biax Carbon Reinforcements
We don’t safe in materials, it's more, we have some extra layers, all in Biax Carbon 45º, to reinforce the parts that suffer the most, to give durability and an extended life to our boards.
The first reinforcement layers go to the traditional parts: the area under your feet, from rail to rail across the whole length (to give the whole board more strength). Then the mast track, nose and tail will have their patches as most boards use to have.
We add another full layer of Biax Carbon 45º, all the way from the tail, until the front of the mast track area, protecting the board up to the part where we step while tacking. That way nothing can get soft, no matter how many times you step on all standing or walking areas of your board.
On the bottom, the fin boxes will have a full layer, from tail to the upper part of the boxes. The extra magic: To avoid the typical damage in the jumping and landing areas, that usually get more pronounced or where boards even bend, after a longer time of usage, specially when jumping a lot, we add another full layer of Biax Carbon 45º, from tail to all the way up to the center of the board.
Breakage is not allowed in our philosophy!
The Sandwich Method
The sandwich method is nothing new in windsurfing board construction.
There are several different types, densities and brands/suppliers of the Airex or PVC sheets used to create a more resistant shell, protecting the shape of the EPS.
The big difference is the thickness used of those Airex/PVC sheets: We find that the perfect compromise of durability and weight is 5mm for the bottom of the board and 3mm for the deck.
Heavy duty inserts, fin boxes and mast track
All our inserts, like fin boxes and the mast track, are put into an extra Airex/PVC block, so that these parts can never cause you an issue, no matter how long you have used your board.
Hard landings, or heavy hits on the rocks, will be taken just like that.
The EPS
The EPS core of each board is CNC-shaped and finished by hand, where the shaper uses precise templates to verify each step, guaranteeing the 100% accuracy of the shape.
Glass and Unidirectional Carbon
The EPS will get reinforced, before the “sandwich” goes on, with another layer of carbon on the deck. This time it's another high tech material that does not create any conflicts with the flex of the Biax Carbon 45º, the Unidirectional Carbon, a carbon that has full flex in direction of the length of the board, but full strength in the direction across the board, from rail to rail.
Thanks to this material, the core or heart of our boards stays intact, no matter how long you use it.
A thin layer of glass always has to be added to any carbon. Carbon fibres, after a long time of usage, start to splinter and break, but thanks to the glass layer, this just can’t happen.
Once again, this will extend the life of your board considerably.
