PRODUCT DETAILS
9' 1" Heritage Longboard
9' 1" × 23¼" × 3" – Volume 82.59L
Classic Trim & Timeless Style The 9'1 Longboard is built for the purist. This board is all about that effortless, "feet-in-the-wax" gliding experience. Shaped with a classic longboard template, it features a stable platform that encourages you to walk the board and spend time on the nose. The 9'0" length makes it slightly more manageable in the water than a traditional "log," giving you a bit more swing-weight for turns without losing that majestic longboard feel. If you're looking to master the art of the cross-step and want a board that looks as good as it rides, this resin-tinted beauty is the one.
Available in Bottle Green, Sky Blue or Duck Egg.
FCS II Fin Recommendations
The Heritage Longboard is a 2+1 setup. The two side finboxes are FCS II — the tool-free system compatible with the full range of FCS II fins. The centre finbox is a standard longbox (not FCS branded) and is compatible with any screw-and-plate centre fin, including FCS centre fin options. All fins are sold separately.
There's no shortage of fin options on the market, and the choice can be overwhelming. The options on the right aren't generic suggestions — they're hand-picked by us based on our knowledge of this board, how it's shaped, and how it performs in the water. We've selected recommended FCS side fin and FCS centre fin options to take the guesswork out of it. If you want our honest recommendation for what works best with this particular shape, these are it.

The Circle One Heritage Range
Step back in time without sacrificing the tech. Our Heritage range is a tribute to the golden era of surfing, using modernised shapes by the legendary Jeff Townsley, the founder of Circle One and an OG of the British shaping scene since the 70s.
These boards feature a Premium Epoxy Resin Tint finish. This traditional technique creates a deep, vibrant, and translucent colour that is "in" the resin, not just painted on. Because each board is hand-laminated and hand-finished, the tint creates unique colours and sometimes patterns, ensuring your board is a one-of-a-kind work of art. Combined with modern FCS II fin boxes (the most versatile system on the market), these boards offer vintage soul, wave catching ease combined with the reliability and performance of today's best materials.

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of waves is the Heritage Longboard designed for?
The Heritage Longboard is designed for everyday surf conditions — knee-high to overhead, with a preference for slower, more open waves where the board can find its line and you have time to move. Its length and volume make it one of the most effective wave-catching shapes available, meaning you'll be riding waves that shorter boards can't reach. For the kind of mellow, long-breaking surf the UK regularly delivers — particularly at point breaks and slower beach breaks — it's in its element.
Is the 9' 1" suitable for beginners?
Yes — a longboard is one of the best options for anyone learning to surf. The length and volume make paddling easier, take-offs earlier, and the ride more forgiving. At 9' 1" and 82.59 litres, the Heritage Longboard has more than enough stability for a beginner to build confidence quickly. As your surfing develops, the board opens up — longboarding has its own techniques and style that take years to master, so you won't outgrow it any time soon.
What is cross-stepping and can I learn it on this board?
Cross-stepping is the technique of walking up and down the board while riding a wave — moving your feet alternately across each other rather than shuffling. It's the foundation of classic longboard style and the skill that leads to nose-riding. The Heritage Longboard's stable platform and classic template make it ideal for learning to cross-step. The length gives you room to move, and the board's predictable feel means you can focus on footwork rather than fighting to stay in control.
What volume do I need for a longboard?
The Heritage Longboard comes in at 82.59 litres, suited to surfers in a wide range of weights and abilities. For beginners, more volume generally means easier paddling, earlier take-offs, and greater stability — so erring on the higher side is usually the right call. More experienced surfers can work with less, but at 9' 1", this board already carries enough volume to suit the vast majority of surfers comfortably. If you're unsure, get in touch and we'll help you work it out.
Which FCS II fins work best with this board?
We've hand-picked specific fin options for the Heritage Longboard based on our knowledge of how this board is shaped and how it performs. The side fins are FCS II compatible, and we've selected recommended FCS II side fin options accordingly. The centre fin uses a traditional longbox (screw and plate), and we've also hand-picked an FCS centre fin to complement the setup. Our recommendations — standard and premium — cover both, so you can order everything you need in one go. You'll find them via the fin upgrade buttons above. If you'd like further guidance, feel free to get in touch.
What is the difference between the Heritage Longboard and the Heritage Noserider?
Both are longboards, but they're shaped for slightly different styles of surfing. The Heritage Longboard at 9' 1" is a classic all-round trim board — stable, flowing, and ideal for cross-stepping and general longboard technique. The Heritage Noserider at 9' 6" is specifically optimised for spending time on the nose — it has a nose concave, 50/50 rails, and a single fin setup designed to keep the board locked in the pocket while you walk forward. If nose-riding is your primary goal, the Noserider is the one. If you want a more versatile longboarding experience, the 9' 1" is the better choice.
