DarkArts Surf

Dark Arts is a budding channel within the surf industry that collaborates with notable surfboard shapers around the world. Set on continuing our path to revolutionize how surfboards are crafted, our offerings are among the lightest and strongest models that excel in speed and durability.

Dark Arts references the art of building surfboards from shaping to glassing with black carbon fiber material. The brand was founded by long-time board builder and surfing purist, Justin Ternes, who assembles his 21 years of board-building and unites it with his conviction to innovate, while ensuring the essence of surfing remains preserved. Collaborating with prominent shapers in the surf industry, we’ve set our sights on pioneering design tactics that form a revolutionary board made in the USA.
