Do you have a question?
Why Zeus?
It's not soft, it's a Zeus!
"Foam board", "softboard", "soft top" are all the same thing. The term comes from the EPS (expanded polystyrene) core covered with a soft coating.
But beware: a Zeus has nothing to do with a beach toy. Reinforced construction, wood or composite stringer, high-density slick - this is pro equipment designed to last 3 to 5 years in surf school (intensive use).
In fact, some mass-market brands themselves state that their boards are "not suitable for intensive use in surf schools". Zeus, yes.
Depends on the deck.
EVA deck (Dolce, Cabianca, Classic, Burger) → No need for wax, the grip is integrated. This is the choice of 90% of surfers in France.
Deck IXPE → Wax recommended. Smoother surface, epoxy-like feel. Ideal for hot countries as EVA can slightly irritate the skin when you surf in boardshorts. But in France - and especially here in Brittany - it's pretty rare to surf without a wetsuit.
Check your board specs or contact us if you have any doubts.
An entry-level board costs less to buy, but let's do the math. Basic construction, generic shapes, limited lifespan: you buy again in 12-18 months. Resale value? Virtually nil.
A Zeus at 350€ lasts 3 to 5 years. On resale, you'll easily get back 150-200€ - shops will take it back, the second-hand market is active. Real cost: ~50€/year versus ~100€/year for the entry-level model.
Our +200 partner surf schools have made this calculation. Once they've invested, they're in the clear. So are you.
Rigid boards (epoxy, polyester) and softboards use different technologies.
Rigid board: PU or EPS foam core covered with fiberglass and resin. Hard surface, lighter, very reactive. Requires advanced level to be used properly (level 3.1+). Shock-sensitive: the slightest impact can create a ding to be repaired.
Softboard: EPS core with soft coating (EVA or IXPE). More forgiving, more stable, absorbs shocks. Ideal for progressing from beginner to advanced intermediate level.
And the high-performance Zeus? Our Dolce and Cabianca ranges are designed to rival the sensations of a rigid board - responsiveness, glide, radicality - while retaining the advantages of softboard construction: durability, safety, zero maintenance.
Maintenance - 3 simple rules:
- Rinse with fresh water after each session (or wipe with a damp cloth if no water is available).
- Avoid prolonged exposure to the sun, especially on the hull - it's your board's #1 enemy.
- Store in the shade, in a dry place, ideally on a vertical rack
Transport :
- By car: never leave your board in a trunk or on a roof in direct sunlight in very hot weather (+30°C).
- Use a cover to protect against bumps and scratches
- Straps on roof racks or bicycle racks: check that they are not too tight to avoid deformations
A well-maintained Zeus will last you for years.
