The Circle One Heritage Range

Step back in time, without sacrificing the tech.

The Circle One Heritage Range is a tribute to the golden era of surfing, reimagined for how we surf today. It brings together timeless design, modern performance, and decades of shaping knowledge into a collection of boards built for progression and feel.

At the heart of the range are shapes by Jeff Townsley, the founder of Circle One and a true original of the British surf scene. Shaping since the 1970s, Jeff’s influence runs deep, and this range reflects a lifetime spent refining what makes a board work.

These aren’t replicas. They’re evolutions.

Classic outlines have been subtly modernised, refined rockers, tuned bottom contours, and balanced volume so you get that unmistakable heritage glide, with the responsiveness needed for today’s waves.


Crafted, Not Just Built

One of the defining features of the Heritage Range is its Premium Epoxy Resin Tint finish.

This is a traditional technique, where colour is layered directly into the resin itself, not painted on afterwards. The result is a deep, translucent finish that has real depth and character. Every board is hand laminated and hand finished (sanded and polished).

    …the tint behaves slightly differently each time. Subtle variations, unique tones and occasional patterns within the resin.

    Each board in this range is a functional piece of craftsmanship, built to be surfed, but beautiful enough to hang on your wall!


    Heritage Meets Modern Performance

    While the look and feel draw from the past, the performance is firmly rooted in the present.

    Every board in the range is built with FCS2 fin boxes, one of the most versatile and widely trusted systems in modern surfing.

    This brings a new level of reliability and performance to heritage-inspired shapes:

    • Tool-free fin installation
    • Secure, consistent connection
    • A system designed to perform under pressure

    More importantly, each board has been designed and tested with specific fin setups in mind, ensuring that what you’re riding is not just a board, but a fully considered setup.


    Built for Feel, Designed for Progression

    The Heritage Range sits in that sweet spot between tradition and progression.

    Boards that:

    • Paddles well
    • Catch waves with ease
    • Flow naturally down the line

    These boards are approachable enough for your first step into a hard board, yet refined enough to reward a more experienced surfer looking to draw cleaner lines, push harder through turns, and generate real speed.


    The Result 

    Vintage soul.
    Modern control.
    Timeless design, built to perform.

    The Circle One Heritage Range isn’t just about how boards used to be. It’s about how good they can feel today.
