Channel Islands Better Everyday
Groveler · Channel Islands calls it a Step-Downs/Grovelers
A groveler is a shortboard with the volume moved forward and the rocker taken out, so it planes early and keeps going through a flat section. In Bali it is the board that makes a mid-tide Batu Bolong session worth paddling out for.

What it sells for used in Bali
Not enough Channel Islands Better Everyday boards have been listed here to quote a used price yet. As a rule of thumb in Bali, a clean recent shortboard from a known brand runs 250 to 450 US dollars, and every repair takes a slice off that.
What to check on a used Better Everyday
- Grovelers get surfed on shallow sandbars and hit the bottom. Look at the fin boxes carefully.
- The extra width means more deck to dent. Thumb-press the whole front foot area.
- Check the tail is the shape you think it is. Swallow, squash and diamond ride differently.
