6'2 RETRO ROCKET

First shaped in 1990 for surfers like Danny Wills and Guy Walker, the Retro Rocket is a forward-thinking design that helped usher in a new era of hybrid high-performance boards. Decades later, this board still remains a key model in the Nev Future Shapes range—built with a proven shape that continues to resonate with a wide range of surfers.

Featuring a fuller nose and rounded squash tail, the Retro Rocket delivers a controlled and fluid feel, while maintaining the drive and responsiveness needed in critical sections. The slightly narrower tail accelerates cleanly through the pocket, while a medium rocker profile creates an ideal balance between down-the-line speed and tight-turning capability.

With extra volume distributed smartly through the board, this model offers high-performance elements with accessibility—well suited to a wide variety of waves, from playful beach breaks to more demanding reefs. The Retro Rocket’s versatility makes it a standout choice in the hybrid category, catering to progressive surfers as well as those seeking a touch more foam under the chest and forward deck.

A timeless shape that blends core 90’s roots with modern refinements, the Retro Rocket brings heritage and performance together in a design that consistently delivers across a variety of surf conditions.
