The Desk Officer is the shortboard go-to board from Cardinal Surfboards, designed in collaboration with shaper Thomas Bexon. Its nose slightly wider profile provides comfort and easy takeoff, while the simple concave design nose that doubles concave as a footrest keeps the board agile in tight turns.

At what level?
Intermediate confirmed. It also fits very well on larger sizes, which can still be fitted with a shortboard short length without sacrificing maneuverability.
For which waves?
Beach breaks and medium-sized waves, with a preference for hollow sections where the board can work in the pocket. The nose wide board helps with late take-offs.
For what kind of surfing pleasure?
Radical maneuvers in the pocket. The Desk Officer is designed to make quick turns, stick to the curl, and make tight turns rather than drawing long lines.
What place in your quiver?
The quiver shortboard length: Cardinal advises taking it 2 to 3 inches shorter than your shortboard usual length. It complements a longer board for days when it’s windy.

It’s a guide, not a verdict. A shaper cross-checks it with your waves and the way you surf.
Is this your board?
What level?
Intermediate to advanced. It also suits heavier surfers really well, who get a short shortboard without sacrificing paddle power.
What waves?
Beach breaks and medium-sized waves, with a preference for hollow sections where the board can work in the pocket. The wide nose helps on late take-offs.
What kind of fun?
Radical manoeuvres in the pocket. The Desk Officer is made to turn tight, stick to the curl and throw in tight turns rather than draw long lines.
Where does it fit in the quiver?
Shortboard du quotidien.
