The Paragon 5’6″ Foamy Mini Simmons, one of our shortest surfboard models, was inspired by Bob Simmons’ revolutionary design of the 1950’s. This soft top version is a modern twist that embraces many of the design elements that have made this shape so popular. This model is all about speed and flow. The front third of the board is very flat (speed), while the rest of the board transitions from a single to double concave. The rails are rolled and forgiving, yet they blend into a hardened edge toward the tail. Finally, the outline is wide, allowing for ridiculous down-the-line speed. This board excels in small conditions and it will guarantee to increase your wave count. Over the years, it is no surprise that the Mini Simmons has become a surfers favorite!

Great float and performance! I was a little hesitant to order a board on Amazon but when I saw that this Mini Simmons shape was available as a foamy I had to give it a try. Very impressed by how easy it is to catch waves with this board and how fast it rides. Its performance is nothing like a foamy. I showed it to my local surf shop and they were impressed too. Itâs definitely a user friendly shape, which I like. Iâve been recommending it to all of my friends, most of them average surfers, to ride it as their small wave…
Best small wave board
Just buy the board Don’t overthink it. For the price, you’re setting yourself up for having a maximum “have fun” board in your quiver. Just bought one from a local seller this weekend and had it out in mushy high tide 2-3′ surf, and was able to catch everything. Can’t wait to have this with me all summer. The Mini Simmons paddles like a long board, but turns on a dime! Not to mention, calling this a “foamie” in its true sense really under-sells the quality construction of the board.UPDATE: Fin…
