Used Mid-Length Surfboards on Oʻahu

Mid-length surfboards typically range from 6'6" to 8 feet, with most falling in the 7'0" to 7'6" sweet spot. They're longer than shortboards but shorter than traditional longboards, designed to offer a blend of paddle power and performance.

Mid-lengths are great for a wide range of surfers. Intermediate surfers transitioning from longboards, advanced surfers wanting a fun small-wave option, and older surfers looking for easier paddling all benefit from mid-lengths. They've become one of the most popular board types in Hawaii for good reason.

For Hawaii's varied conditions, look for a mid-length in the 7'0" to 7'6" range with moderate rocker. Single fin or 2+1 setups work well for cruisy south shore waves, while thruster or quad setups handle more powerful north shore conditions. Local shapers often build mid-lengths specifically tuned for Hawaiian surf.
