JS' favourite fusion of all time, the Monsta Box combines all the best parts of the much loved Monsta and Blak Box models. It falls right in the middle as a perfectly balanced daily driver that you can rely on to grovel whenever necessary, but also enjoy some of the most fun & rippable conditions imaginable.
The new Monsta Box has more rocker and a narrower outline than the Blak Box 3, while it's fuller and flatter than the Monsta. This gives it well blended curves to hide foam where you need it, without getting in the way of performing at a high level. A smooth single to double concave with a touch more depth creates lift in sub-par conditions, but allows you to remain in control when the waves turn on.
Whoever you are, the Monsta Box over delivers in several crucial parts of almost all surfer’s year round quivers. It’s the step down JS' Traktor Team use when the conditions don’t quite call for a Monsta. It’s the go-to when their friends who are lucky enough to surf every day want a performance board for smaller waves or less than pro abilities. And for the places and seasons that don’t get a lot of quality waves, it’s a forgiving option that will help you surf your best regardless of average conditions. The Monsta Box is JS' most popular hybrid, and now it’s better than ever.

- Volume: 34.5L
- Tail Shape: Squash
- Construction: PU
- Glassing: 4x3 oz. deck and 4 oz. bottom.
- Fin Layout: Thruster

- Wave Type: 2-6ft, or waist to well overhead. Great in many conditions from crumbly, flatter wave faces to good quality surf with hollow sections.
- Rocker: Medium low entry and exit rocker, with a bigger sweet spot under front foot. Overall height is the same as the original Monsta Box, placement of the curve has just been pushed more to the ends of the board.
- Rail Type: Medium full rails. This performance based rail shape allows for precision when the right section stands up, yet has enough volume to get you through fat sections or avoid catch in chop.
- Concave: Single concave under front foot moves to double concave between the fins. Based on team favourites, JS chose to go back to his "reverse concave" which is deeper under front foot and shallower at each end of the board. They found this to be the fastest of them all, as it creates maximum water flow.
