The RNF ‘96 originated in the mid-1990s when shaper Matt Biolos began experimenting with fish designs alongside surfers Chris Ward and Cory Lopez. At a time when surfboard design had fallen into a long performance plateau, these early prototypes helped kickstart a new generation of performance hybrid boards.
Unlike traditional fish shapes influenced by wide-tailed kneeboards, the RNF ‘96 was designed with high-performance surfing in mind. Drawing inspiration from Mark Richards’ competitive twin-fin boards of the ’70s and ’80s, it features a more pulled-in tail that allows surfers to drive harder through turns while maintaining control in a broader range of conditions.
Over the past 25 years, Biolos has continued refining the concept, applying decades of shaping experience to create a modern version that honours the original while improving speed, response and versatility.
The RNF ‘96 is built to perform across a wide range of wave types. While many fish designs are limited to small surf, this board is designed to handle everything from playful beach breaks to more powerful conditions.
Its balanced outline and responsive feel make it a reliable option for surfers looking for speed, drive and manoeuvrability without losing control.
The RNF ‘96 combines classic design heritage with modern performance. It offers the effortless speed and flow fish boards are known for, while still allowing for powerful turns and progressive surfing.
Built using advanced construction techniques, it’s significantly tougher than traditional surfboards. The durable design resists dings, won’t easily absorb water, and makes it a great option for travel or everyday use. Environmentally conscious materials, including plant-based resins and recycled components, also help reduce environmental impact without compromising performance.
Now ½ lb (¼ kg) lighter, this board features Lib Tech’s cutting-edge construction for strength, durability and performance:
Bio Matrix Plant-Based Resin – Low VOC, high-strength eco-friendly resin
G+ Glass (0°/90° axis) – Lightweight reinforcement for improved responsiveness
Magnesium Fiber – Extremely tough, impact-resistant material
Quad Axial G Glass Reinforced Rails (0°/90°/45°/45° axis) – Strengthens rails while maintaining light weight
Pressure-Treated Hexylite Thermo-Fusion Honeycomb Power Panel – Reduces vibration and improves impact resistance
Nitrogen Cell Upcycled Foam – Environmentally responsible foam with low VOCs and recycled content
The result is a surfboard that is lighter, stronger and more environmentally responsible, while still delivering the high-level performance the RNF ‘96 is known for.
