Sutton Smith is the latest addition to team Phase 5. Sutton is a ripper straight out of Tennessee and we’re stoked to have him on board for 2025. He’s only been riding for 3 years but has already shown some awesome potential and some solid technical skills. We’re looking forward to seeing what he can do this season as he competes and shreds all year long! Congrats, Sutton!

The very FIRST surf style board that we produced was the Aku. It’s always been a fun shape but we knew we could do better. With that in mind, the Aku V2 was born. This board is a speed demon that’s made for high-power slayshes and boosting above the lip of the wave.

John Akerman’s surf blade of choice, the Ahi, has been one of our most popular boards in the surf line the last few years. We believe this is partly due to the fact that not only does this board rip, John rides it all season long really putting it to the test so when the off season comes, he’s right there in the shaping room trying to make it even better, year after year.

When you go out and spend your hard earned cash on a brand new board, you want to rest assured that the board you’re riding has the same specifications as the pro you saw riding it, right? Well at Phase 5, that’s what we’re all about. We like to live by the motto “what you see is what you get”. There’s no fluff added behind the scenes to our boards and the boards that we send out to your local shop are the exact same boards that you see your favorite riders tearing it up on! Not only that but we make each and every board by hand in our factory in Venice, FL so we can monitor quality at the highest level.
