XTR
- Thread starter isurfcardiff
- Start date
My favorite is the SL-CK as well with the high density blue foam stronger running the length, along with the carbon. Haven't tried the newest cabron offering yet tho
For those that have been trying to get ahold of XTR (like me) using the old email address "xtrsales@epoxysurfboards.com" it appears they have a NEW EMAIL ADDRESS on their website. "info@xtrepoxytech.com".
I sent an email to the old one last week and it bounced back about 4 times. So then i went to the website and noticed the new email.
Just wanted to share my findings. Carry on...

Whatever is going on, I hope they get their act together. I like XTR and think they have a good product but man, all these QC issues reported on here really bums me out. Definitely made me hold off any new orders the last couple years.
edit: This video from Bird talking about several "special" stock XTRs he got in the shop kinda makes it sound like Javier is liquidating his biz and moving back to Peru?... Maybe I mis-heard?

Birds Surf Shed on Instagram: "The Shed is legendary for having some incredible surfboards not only on display, but for sale on the new and used racks. These incredibly light and string boards from XTR came in this weekend and they are sick. Listen as Bird breaks down the boards and their construction in this weeks board breakdown. #birdssurfshed #xtrfoam #channelislandsurfboards #redbeauty #tomcurren #surfboard #epoxyresin"

I wonder why they took down (or at least I can't find them) stoke borts? There used to be a handful of ones for sale that were either customs with factory errors or true stoke ones.
Looks like a couple of them were dropped off at Birds!
When bird said what day it was, my brain was expecting him to follow up with the Surf Report.
I doubt those are Javier’s boards or that he’s moving to Peru. Dude has a family.
Im going to interview Javier at the boardroom show and get the low down on what is happening.
Unless Casa (the TMZ of the erBB) beats me to it.

Found an old response from Jon Pyzel on this thread: “When you order a board through XTR it gets shaped by my shaper, but after that it goes through Javier and his factory and we don't see it again.”
Looks like Pyzel finishes the blank which XTR cuts. Makes sense considering the factories are five minutes walking distance apart in Oceanside.

I thought the Pyzel's were scrubbed/finished by a guy that used a room at XTR. I thought his name was Manny? I met him once; pompadour styled grey haired Asian gentleman. I believe he was brought up to speed from Jon, but had decades of shaping experience.
Prices on varial pyzels aren't that crazy - and their in-house PU is really good. Not sure why you would go to XTR for one.
mods, can you please change the thread title to “XTR — Done”?
It seems really unlikely to me that XTR would be dissolving after they just put a bunch of money/time into a complete site redesign, promoting the new v10 foam, etc. I wonder if Javi is moving and Shey is taking over or something? Either way I hope they stick around and we get some more info soon.
