Walnut Stub
Walnut Stub
Stub member of our stunning new Walnut series. Each handplane made from this rich and decadent wood has subtle iridescent grain patterns that pop when in the water, while the beautiful deep Walnut body finishes with a silky finish leaving a handplane you cant take your eyes off.
The stub is our shortest board, designed for a range of conditions and especially suited to steep, powerful waves.
It is quick, manoeuvrable and light on the hand with its wooden build providing sufficient buoyancy. Its single concave and turndown rails provide all the lift and hold on wave required.
With a subtle rocker in the nose and smooth rails it provides a clean ride.
The superb water proofing properties of natural tung oil are used to seal each board before it hits the water. All boards come with a hand sewn adjustable strap, attached using our subtle and secure design - unique to Compass Handplanes
Approx ~ 10 1/2" x 7" x 3/4"(at thickest point)

Our hand made Sapele hard wood Crescent.
The Crescent is one of our mid sized boards, a great all rounder with a smooth cutaway crescent tail. This shape provides a wider tail with a larger surface area. Without adding excess length, the design allows for increased grip and control. Similar in performance to the fish but with a different aesthetic.
It has a balanced rocker in the nose and smooth, clean rails for excellent hold down the line.
The concave throughout the board combined with the natural buoyancy of the wood provides strong lift when pulling into a wave.
The superb water proofing properties of natural tung oil are used to seal each board before it hits the water. All boards come with a hand sewn adjustable strap, attached using our subtle and secure design - unique to Compass Handplanes
Approx ~ 13" x 7 1/4" x 3/4"(at thickest point)
Our hand made Sapele hard wood Pin.
The Pin is our longest board and great for all conditions, big and small. This shape provides a long tail with smooth lines and a deep concave. It allows you make the next section as well as hold your line when looking for the barrel.
It has a stable rocker in the nose and clean rails to allow for maximum rides.
The large surface area combined with the natural buoyancy of the wood provides sufficent lift when planing across the wave.
