Hamboards Pescadito 43 Birch — Swallow Tail Surfskate Longboard

The Pescadito 43 (Spanish for "little fish") is a compact, responsive longboard with the classic pointed nose and swallow tail of an old-school fish surfboard. The birch deck is built layer by layer, then finished with a UV-resistant grip coating that keeps your feet locked in even during hard slides and feels good on bare feet too.

Choose Your HST Truck Configuration

All three setups deliver deep board lean, mounted on riser blocks with Hamboards' signature cast polyurethane wheels. Buttery smooth and wide enough to deflect small rocks before you ride over them.

CARVE — 40/40 "Dig and Carve" Equal front and rear turning for maximum versatility. Throw the tail like you're hitting the lip and carve back down the face. The performance all-rounder for advanced riders who want everything from mellow cruising to aggressive rail-to-rail shredding.

SURF — 55/20 "Pump and Glide" Front-drive balance that prioritizes flow. This is the setup for footwork, cross-stepping, and that smooth glide-down-the-line feeling. Build speed, make your turn, and walk to the nose — this configuration makes the transition seamless.

PUMP — 55/0 "Cross-step Nose rider" Maximum rear stability with a snappy front. Locks the backend in place so you can confidently cross-step, nose ride, and walk the board. Also the go-to configuration for long-distance pumping with a SUPSKATE paddle — same physics, two communities.
