History
Haydenshapes Surfboards was founded in 1996 by Hayden Cox in Sydney, Australia. At the time of establishment, Hayden was 15 and in high school. After snapping his favourite surfboard and not being able to afford a new one, he decided to make one of his own instead.[7] In 2006, Haydenshapes launched the newly invented and patented FutureFlex (formally known as FiberFlex, created by Hayden Cox[4]) a parabolic carbon fibre frame technology, a modern take on the traditional "wooden stringer" surfboard design. In 2011, Haydenshapes signed a global distribution deal[8] that launched the brand globally into 70 countries. In 2013, Haydenshapes opened a US manufacturing facility and office in El Segundo, California.[7] Haydenshapes currently manufactures surfboards in Australia, USA and Thailand.[9][10]
