The Temper 8'0 is a popular mini-malibu from the Classic range, designed for medium-sized surfers looking for stability and ease. With its 72 liters of volume, this board offers reassuring buoyancy for riders up to 85 kg. At 8 feet long, it combines the easy paddling of a longboard with the maneuverability of a mini-mal. Its Hybrid construction with fiberglass makes it stronger than foam school boards, yet as easy to ride as high-end epoxy boards.
The 8'0 size is perfect for riders up to 85 kg. Volume on the nose to prevent pearling, a square tail with plenty of surface area to forgive positioning errors. Easy to paddle, stable on the take-off, forgiving in turns. With its 22 9/16" width, the Temper remains maneuverable without sacrificing stability.
Why choose a Mini-Malibu?
The mini-mal is the ideal size to start with after your course. Shorter than a longboard (and therefore more maneuverable), but with enough volume to remain forgiving. The Zeus Hybrid construction (EPO + XPE + fiberglass + HDPE slick) gives you real glide and fast progression. The square tail forgives errors, the voluminous nose helps you paddle in small waves, and the reinforced EVA rails absorb impacts without flinching.
The Classic mini-mal is the smart choice for your first personal board. Do you want an easy, solid, and versatile board that helps you progress in all conditions? The Temper does exactly that.
