The new Custom Quad 9 Pro Carbon Haiku Package builds on the proven speed, ease of use, and wave-riding confidence of the Quad 8, while introducing a host of performance upgrades. Designed with a slightly more pulled-in nose and a progressive rocker curve, the Quad 9 delivers a tighter turning radius, while retaining the effortless glide riders loved in the previous generation, adding acceleration and top-end speed.
The new shapes and construction feel slippier, looser, and more rail-to-rail-oriented, offering performance once reserved for custom boards only. A refined building process with lighter, higher-density foam in varying thicknesses throughout, and continuous Carbon/S-Glass layering contribute to our best and lightest Custom Quad ever, elevating wave performance to a new level of precision and flow.
Board Bag.
Every Haiku Package board comes with its own bespoke MFC Single Board Bag. A streamlined, no-wall design optimized for daily use, commutes, and light travel.
Vent Plug.
Solid State vent plug that eliminates automatic plug failure points and leaks.
Haiku Package.
In the quest for refined style and soaring heights, every gram counts. And every athlete is willing to question the fundamentals in the pursuit of new performance levels, personal and absolute. With this attitude, we push the importance of gear out of the rider’s mind, letting the rider focus on the execution and smoothness of their maneuver. Welcome to the Haiku Package.
The Haiku Package reduces weight by 250 to 500 grams, depending on the model and size. By using lightweight components and materials, this reduction is achieved over the already-impressive specs of a Pro Carbon construction.
Directly reflecting our highest-level custom boards, as built in our development center in Haiku, Maui, Hawaii, home to our custom factory, engineering headquarters, and skunkworks alike.
This ultimate premium upgrade takes the same shape, honed over generations, and transforms it into a performance-driven masterpiece, infused with competition DNA. Backed by an abundance of world titles since 1994.
The Haiku Package is the exact construction our team riders ask for. This is the closest you can get to a custom competition board as used by Marcilio, Antoine, Takara, Kai, Javier, Keith, and Francisco.
In detail, the Haiku Package consists of the following features:
• Carbon. A full cutting-edge carbon schedule —deck and bottom —combining unidirectional, biaxial, and 0/90 carbon laminates —allows precise control of flex and strength, creating the cleanest, most responsive build with zero excess material. Faster acceleration, crisper rail engagement, and a more direct connection to the water.
• Materials. Fewer layers of stronger, more premium lightweight materials deliver the flex, refine the torsional stiffness, and eliminate the need for excess reinforcements, while maintaining compressive strength and giving an instant response to rider input exactly as needed. Higher Flotation leads to faster acceleration. Easier control in the air, faster rotations, and softer landings. Durable enough for the most dedicated and experienced riders. Not recommended for rental centers.
• Finish. The finishing process is refined, with a shorter mast box, trimmed pads, and reduced paint with color integrated directly into the construction for a lighter, cleaner, more durable finish. Everything is simplified for connection and response.
• Stiffness. Reduced weight and increased torsional stiffness deliver faster reflexes. A refined flex profile enhances responsiveness through turns while maintaining control at speed. World Cup performance. Lighter, Stiffer, Sharper. Built for riders seeking ultimate precision, connection, and efficiency.
Feeling.
Intuitive speed, power, and flow.
Speed.
By refining the rocker, reshaping the bottom contour, and tapering the rails, the board’s efficiency, drive, and flow have been brought to the next level. Quick planning, fast acceleration, and a noticeably higher top-end performance, resulting in our quickest and most responsive rail-to-rail ride to date. Meaning you can make that section, make that lip, where before it would have seemed a far reach.
Shape.
A true World Cup wave board, the Custom Quad delivers quick planing and forward-driving carving turns, perfectly tuned to perform as a quad without compromise. Each model begins from the same master design to ensure a unified feel and aesthetic, then undergoes careful, size-specific refinements. Since rider needs don’t scale in strict proportion with volume, length, or rocker, each board is hand-tailored to a precise balance between proportional calculations and riding feel—crafted to match intuitive performance in onshore to frontside World Cup conditions.
A more pulled-in, higher front improves fit and control in the most demanding, tightest sections, while the reduced width in the middle minimizes drag, increases core center flotation, and speeds rail-to-rail transitions.
Bottom.
V blends into a single concave further forward, making it easier and quicker to respond for fast rail-to-rail transitions.
Rocker.
A new progressive-curve rocker creates accelerating yet easily controlled rail turns from nose to tail, resulting in the highest-elevating yet forgiving experience and ride.
Rails.
Thicker and fuller ahead of the mast track, to accelerate tail flow, the board feels surfy and forgiving up front, yet sharp and precise at the back.
Agility.
A sleeker, pulled-in nose paired with a progressive, accelerating rocker line and bottom-V front-to-tail concaves unlocks turns once unimaginable—the added speed drives you confidently into the most radical sections and turns.
Pads & Straps.
Re-designed dual-density pads provide better grip, comfort, and durability. A new reduced layout and optimized dual-density blend mean you have the right support and cushioning where you need it, whilst saving weight and minimizing drag. The new square pattern is angled just right to give you maximum grip and connection to the board. A surf-inspired tail kick pad gives you that locked-in feel during air moves and turns.
Best-quality neoprene and fit MFC ® foot straps, with a size measurement guide. Set them as single-centered, offset, or double screw. Cover is compatible with or without shoes. Asymmetric washers let you custom-fit the strap width around your foot.
Finboxes & Fins.
Quatro ® US mast track and fin boxes, designed in-house and exclusive to Quatro/Goya, are lighter and stronger by design and bonding than conventional boxes. 4 x 5.5-inch US Boxes are 50% lighter—100g per box to minimize weight and seal the Carbon Monocoque™ construction.
MFC ® Quad Carbon fins are designed and constructed to match the Custom Quad 9, with a focus on ultimate speed and rail control. With a narrow core and added surface area at the tip, it provides enough support from the fin surface for earlier planning with high-speed rail-to-rail control. The Carbon Composites lay-up boosts Top Speed with progressive Torsion.
Boardbag.
• Water-resistant Tarpuleen® interior lining.
• 4mm foam padding – absorbs shock, not water.
• Reinforced zones at nose, tail & rails.
• Marine-grade corrosion-resistant zippers.
• Padded carry handle for added comfort.
