Since Charlie Sr. started shaping long boards in the early 60s, seeing someone paddling a Bunger log in a lineup on Long Island is a common occurrence. Tommy continues the family craft with the 9 footers so come get yours.
Shortboarding on Long Island can be a little tricky so that’s why it’s important to have the right equipment. Tommy Bunger understands the conditions and matches the right shape based on your style & skill level. He won’t steer you wrong.
If you’ve been shaping surfboards for as long as Bunger Surf then you know we have a good approach for the fish shape. Fish are great shapes for both navigating the mushy sections as well as charging heavy water waves.
