The Rusta is Steven’s Supertubes board - a refined performance thruster and one of the most dependable shortboards in the Sawyer thruster range.
Built as a staple for progressive everyday surfing & competitive surfing. It responds when pushed, holds confidently through committed turns and gives the surfer the freedom to draw fast, precise lines without feeling overly demanding underfoot.
This is the board for surfers wanting one reliable shortboard that can form the foundation of their quiver. From open-face carving to tighter pocket surfing, the Rusta is designed to feel fast, connected and ready to perform.
Stevie’s Notes
The Rusta is my Supertubes board. It’s one of the best shortboards I’ve surfed and the kind of thruster you can always rely on.
It has that magic combination of speed, drive and control. You can push it hard through a turn, surf it tightly in the pocket or open it up across the face, and it just keeps responding.
For me, it’s the staple thruster - the board you keep coming back to because it feels familiar beneath your feet but never limits how far you want to take your surfing.
