The HI4 is for the longboarder who wants real performance in average conditions without giving up the noseriding feel that makes a longboard worth riding.

• The longboarder stepping back into a competition-pedigree shape who wants something that works in everyday surf, not just chest-high and above
• The all-around longboarder building a one-board quiver who wants a board that walks, noserides, and turns on a rail
• The progressive longboarder who wants to push the board harder on bigger days without losing the tip time on smaller ones
• The noserider looking for a more responsive, lighter-feeling platform that still locks into the pocket
• The intermediate longboarder ready to graduate from a forgiving log into a board with real performance DNA

This is the board for surfers who don't want to choose between trim and turns.

The HI4 is built for the wide middle of longboard surf — it starts working in knee-to-thigh-high waves and only gets better as the surf builds. The continual high-performance rocker, with a slight flip in the last six inches of the tail, keeps the board controlled in the pocket on bigger days, while the wider nose and even rocker through the middle let it glide and trim through softer sections that would stall a tighter performance shape. Riders consistently report taking the HI4 out in surf well over head and finding it still locked in. Hawaii's mix of clean small-wave longboard days and bigger, lined-up swells covers the exact range this board was designed around.

Billy Tolhurst shaped the HI4 by taking Harley's two-time world tour HIHP outline and tuning it for everyday surf. The board is wider all the way through, with a more curvaceous plan shape between the feet that loosens it up and makes it noticeably easier to turn off the tail. The continual HP rocker carries through most of the board, then flips in the last six inches of the tail to keep the tip out of the way on vertical maneuvers and hold the board in the pocket on steeper drops. A long teardrop nose concave, set behind the nose flip, paired with the wider nose itself, is what makes the HI4 the easiest noserider in the HI Series — there's a defined platform up front that catches and holds when you step forward. The 4+1 fin box layout opens the door to riding it as a single fin, a 2+1, a quad, or a tri — different conditions, different setups, same board.
