Duratech technology

How is it made?

Dura-Tec technology who uses an extrusion blow molding process . This one exists nowhere else than in Vannes , as proof the machine is huge!

She must do at least 10m high and even had to dig a big hole in the factory floor to put it down. With this technology , TAHE can manufacture solid, light products with a very good quality/price ratio, three essential elements to have fun on the water whatever your level of practice.

In this one we just perform an extrusion. To put it simply, a kind of liquid is continuously injected into the mould. The plastic-based liquid is propelled with air out of the mold leaving a central cavity.

The compressed air cools the part, which freezes in its final shape , that of the mould. So here we are with a kind of plastic sock in the shape of our surfboard . Next step, fill our sock with a foam to form the core of our board.

In a new mould, we just inject the liquid foam which will then cool to form the board . After a few minutes, you can open the mold and the board is ready! Simply install the stickers, the pad and the fin boxes in the slots provided and you're done. Our Dura-Tec board is ready to take its first waves.

7'3" MALIBU Surf Dura Tec

Presentation:

The BIC Malibu Surf range is the best selling surfboard range in the world with over 500,000 produced.


In 2021 BIC SPORT BECOMES TAHE, after more than 40 years of history. The new brand TAHE takes up the essential values that made the success of BIC Sport in order to continue a new adventure.

Our report of the visit of the Tahe Outdoor France factory in Vannes


No need to present the 7'3 Mini Malibu, a shape signed by Gerard Dabbadie, the most famous French shaper in the world.

The 7'3 Mini Malibu is the little sister of the 7'9 Mini Malibu, which made surfing popular and accessible all across the globe. This board is for all types of surfers, whether they are beginners or experienced.

It is the ideal board for beginners who want to acquire their first surfboard. The 7'3 is used by many surf schools around the world for its learning qualities and durability.

Technical specifications:

Beginners will appreciate its stability and more experienced surfers will love its scalability.

Its relatively wide outline, combined with a very tight rocker, offers the right characteristics for a smooth learning curve. Easy to paddle, it will be easy to stand up.

Although it is bulky with its 46L, it is still very scalable. So you can use the board in more powerful waves and start attacking your first maneuvers.

Over the seasons, the 7'3" Malibu has earned a reputation for versatility, durability and price point.

We recommend it for surfers between 45 and 70kgs.

It's the perfect choice for a first surfboard, easy to wear and durable.

Heavier surfers will appreciate its length and performance before moving on to more demanding shortboards.

  • Length : 7'3" 220 cm
  • Max width 54 cm
  • Maximum thickness 6,4 cm
  • Volume 46L
  • Weight 5.6 Kg
  • Thruster : equipped with 3 FCS M-5 drifts

DURA-TEC TECHNOLOGY

How is it made?

Ultra solid, it is made of Dura-Tec technology made in France, composed of a polyethylene shell and a polyurethane foam core. It is simply the best price/strength ratio on the market.

  • 100% Made in France: quality and respect of the shapes designed by Gerard DABBADIE
  • Integrated nose protection to improve the life of the product.
  • Reinforced graphics in T3+ material for a qualitative look.
  • Standard FCS fins included with each board.

By combining an ultra strong skin made of polyethylene injected under pressure in high precision steel molds with a polyurethane foam core, the result is unmatched.

This technology creates super-strong, high-performance boards at an affordable price, while offering an exceptional level of strength. They're not the lightest on the market, but they're by far the strongest.

Where is it made?

Made in France in the Tahe factory in Vannes.

We were lucky enough to be invited for a visit to the Tahe Outdoors France factory in Vannes . For those who don't know, the Tahe Outdoors group is the first European Outdoor sports group to buy Bic Sport in 2019. No more Bic surfboards, make way for TAHE boards, the group's new brand and SIC!

On the program, a behind-the-scenes visit to the factory that manufactures half of the world's surfboards . Today, the Tahe Outdoors France group exports a large part of its production. Renowned for their accessibility and solidity , TAHE and SIC boards have been part of the surf landscape for a long time.
