CODE Surfboards
CODE Surfboards at Behind The Pines Amsterdam
CODE Surfboards is built around a simple idea: great surfboards start with great shapes. Rather than chasing trends or overly complex designs, CODE focuses on refined outlines, balanced rockers and carefully considered volume distribution. The result is a collection of surfboards that feel intuitive underfoot, paddle efficiently and perform across a wide range of conditions.
At Behind The Pines Amsterdam, we select surfboards that help surfers spend more time catching waves and less time fighting their equipment. CODE fits that approach perfectly, offering boards designed to maximise enjoyment, progression and consistency in the water.
Performance through thoughtful design
Every CODE Surfboard begins with a proven shape. Clean lines, balanced dimensions and practical volume placement create boards that generate speed naturally while remaining predictable through turns. Construction choices are used to fine-tune feel, flex and durability, but the shape remains at the centre of each design.
This approach creates surfboards that work for a wide variety of surfers, from those looking to progress their technique to experienced riders searching for dependable performance across different wave conditions.
Surfboards for every type of session
The CODE range covers a broad spectrum of surfing styles and conditions. Everyday shortboards offer speed, responsiveness and versatility for regular surf. Hybrid models combine paddle power with manoeuvrability, helping surfers catch more waves without sacrificing performance.
You'll also find grovellers designed for smaller and weaker surf, step-up models built for more powerful waves and mid-length surfboards that deliver smooth flow and easy wave entry. Each design aims to make surfing feel more natural, efficient and enjoyable.
Complete your setup with our collection of surfboard fins, surfboard leashes, traction pads and board bags and socks.
Designed to help you catch more waves
Good surfboard design is about more than performance on a perfect wave. It is about creating boards that paddle efficiently, generate speed easily and help surfers make the most of everyday conditions. CODE focuses on practical performance that translates directly into more waves and better sessions.
Whether you're surfing beach breaks, point breaks or reef setups, the goal remains the same: smooth paddling, natural turns and reliable performance when conditions change.
Why choose CODE Surfboards?
CODE Surfboards combines modern shaping knowledge with a clear understanding of what most surfers actually need. The boards are designed to be accessible, versatile and enjoyable across a wide range of surf conditions rather than focusing on one narrow performance category.
That makes them a strong choice for surfers looking for a board that performs consistently and continues to reward progression over time.
