Sea Biscuit
Every Offshore is pressed, finished and tuned by hand in our factory in Niseko, Japan.
A short, wide, powder displacement craft.
A short-wide shape engineered for maximum float and playfulness. The extra width keeps you high in deep snow and makes soft landings easy, while a healthy sidecut and Pow Camber bring energy and quickness underfoot. Ride it 5 to 10cm shorter than your usual all-mountain board.
The Sea Biscuit is short, wide and built for fun. The extra width floats you high in powder and lands you soft off drops, while the compact shape whips around quicker than anything its size has a right to. Pow Camber gives it real pop and energy.
It turns quickly, slashes on command and makes natural terrain hard to ignore. Trees, powder stashes, side hits, banks. It brings the youth back into your riding.
Crafted by us, customised by you.
Your name. Your design. Pressed into a hand-crafted board that didn't exist before you ordered it.
The iD is made the same way every Offshore board is made. The highest quality materials, hand-crafted in Moiwa by people who chose quality and joy over everything else. By the time it leaves, it has a wooden core, carbon, resin, fibreglass, and you, pressed into the kind of board people ask about at the bottom of the lift.
That's the iD. Made once, for you.
Custom
Black. For a reason.
Every Offshore has the same
high-grade black carbon-sintered
base. Fast, durable and consistent.
We keep it black and leave the
colour to the topsheet.

The Board
Sea Biscuit / Pow Camber / Short Wide Powder
Ride Profile
What it
does best.
Six metrics across all snowboard terrain. The further a petal extends, the stronger the board in that area.
Shaped for
What it
lives for.
- Powder
- Where it belongs. The width floats you high, keeps the nose moving and makes soft landings feel easy.
- All-Mountain
- Quick arcs, energetic turns and plenty of edge when you need it. Capable on firm snow, but always looking for something more interesting.
- Versatility
- Loads of pop, endless playfulness, low fatigue. A short board that never stops giving.

What’s Inside
The Intention
The Sea Biscuit exists to make riding fun again. We shaped it short and wide so you can size right down and let the board do the work. Less length, more float, and a shape that turns the whole mountain into somewhere to play. It is not about charging or chasing speed. It is about pop, slashes, soft landings and the kind of grin you had the first time you strapped in.
How It Rides
The Sea Biscuit rides quick, light and endlessly playful. The short-wide shape floats high in powder and pivots fast, so tight trees and quick line changes feel effortless. Pow Camber gives it genuine pop off the tail and energy edge to edge. The healthy sidecut pulls it into tight arcs and lets you slash on demand. It is not a straight-line speed machine, and it does not pretend to be. What it does is make turns, drops, side hits and little pieces of terrain much harder to ride past.
The Rider
For the rider who wants to play. Someone happy to size down, float high and slash everything in sight. Confident enough to enjoy a lively board, and after fun over everything else. Intermediate through expert. Directional, playful and young at heart.
The Terrain
Deep trees and powder stashes. Natural banks and side hits. Soft landings off rolls and drops. The Sea Biscuit finds the fun in terrain other boards ride straight past.

Soft

Stiff
8 / 10
Same shape, three layups. Soft is forgiving and playful. Regular is the most ridden. Stiff drives harder at speed.
Camber: Pow Camber
Camber under the feet, early rise nose, a touch of rocker in the tail. The contact point sits closer to the back foot, so the nose has room to rise and the tail can release. Camber between the feet is non-negotiable on Offshore boards, it’s the engine of the turn. The rockered nose and tail add surf and lift, effortless float on the deepest days. Pow Camber is made for powder and surfy terrain.
Shape: Short / Wide
The whole idea is short and wide. A compact outline and a broad waist give you the float of a much longer board on a fraction of the length. Fifteen millimetres of taper lifts the nose, while the stance sits centred over the effective edge with 30mm of setback overall, so it stays balanced and quick underfoot. A healthy sidecut pulls it into tight arcs and hard slashes. Pow Camber keeps the edge locked and the pop alive, so it holds a real line on firm snow too.
Same shape, three layups. The flex does not change what the shape was intended for. Only how hard you have to ask. It is the mood. The feel. There is no right or wrong. Just a preference we like to offer, made possible by building every board to order.
Soft · 4
Playful & forgiving
Easy to bend, easy to forgive. Presses and butters come cheap. It soaks up chatter and is more forgiving when a landing goes wrong. Good in tight trees, on slow days, and if you prefer a softer feel.
Regular · 6
Happy medium
The one most people ride. It holds an edge when you lean on it and lets go when you want to play. Stable enough for speed, loose enough for fun. If you are not sure which to pick, this is the answer. It is how we intended our boards to feel, and how we ride them.
Stiff · 8
Hard charging
Built for those who prefer a firmer flex. It holds a line through chop and stays calm as the speed climbs. It carves hard and rewards a strong back leg. You get back exactly what you put in. Not designed to be easy to ride. Designed to be ridden.
Tech · 01 / 04
Power Chords
Power Chords are pre-tensioned carbon tow that target the board's most critical sections, giving the rider greater control and stability when turning, landing and improving durability.

What Riders Say
5.0 · 3 reviews
OFSR / New Entry
Good to Know
The questions we get most, answered straight.
The Sea Biscuit
What is the Sea Biscuit best at?
Fun. A short-wide displacement board that floats high, turns on a dime, and pops off everything. It makes the whole mountain feel like a playground.
Is it good on groomers and hardpack?
Yes. Pow Camber and a healthy sidecut give it real grip and pop, so it carves tight arcs and holds a line on firm snow. Playful, not fragile.
How is it different from the Fugu?
Both are short and wide. The Sea Biscuit is softer, with medium flex and Pow Camber, built for pop and play. The Fugu is stiffer and directional, built to carve hard and charge. Sea Biscuit for fun, Fugu for performance.
How do I choose my Sea Biscuit size?
Ride it 5 to 10cm shorter than your usual all-mountain board. The short-wide shape floats like a much longer board, so let the width do the work. Between sizes, size down.
Do I need a wide board?
No. The Sea Biscuit is already a wide shape, so your feet are covered without a separate wide option. To be sure, check the waist width on the specs above or run the and match it to your boot. If your boots are very large or you need help deciding, email us and we will sort your fit.
Is my board waxed and tuned, ready to ride?
Yes. Every board is hand finished before it ships. Edges tuned to precise angles, sidewalls bevelled, base flooded with premium Japanese wax and brushed to a mirror finish. Strap in and ride.
Ordering & Shipping
How long does a board take?
Lead time is around six weeks from order, plus about two weeks for delivery if you are overseas. We make only a very limited number each year and sell out each season, so ordering early secures your board for the coming winter. There is no stock and no production line.
Do you ship worldwide?
Yes. Worldwide shipping is available. Wherever you are, we can get your board to you.
Can you deliver to my hotel in Japan?
Yes. We ship anywhere in Japan, including to your hotel or accommodation. Send us the details of where you are staying and we will have your board waiting for your arrival.
Do you offer tax free?
No. But if you ship outside Japan, your purchase is exempt from the 10% Japan VAT.
Can I pick up my board from the factory?
Yes. You are welcome to collect your board from our factory in Niseko. Just let us know when you will collect and we will have your board ready for you.
The Factory
Where are Offshore Snow Shapes boards made?
By hand at our factory in Niseko, Japan. Every board is hand-crafted, made to order in small numbers. Learn more about our factory in Niseko.
Can I visit the factory?
Yes. Outside winter we are open 9am to 5pm, and through winter 8am to 8pm. Come and see how the boards are made, pick up your new board, or demo one of our shapes.
Can I demo a board before I buy?
Yes. Demo boards are available at the factory for around 5,000 yen a day, and you can also demo at Rhythm in Hirafu. It is the best way to feel a shape before you order.
Can I watch my board being made?
In winter you are welcome to drop by. Walk-ins are fine and we are happy to show you around the workshop while boards are in build. Come and see how they are made.
Do you offer a free tune?
Yes. As an Offshore owner, your board includes one complimentary tune each year at our Niseko Kōjō.
We’ll confirm the board against its serial number or original purchase details when you bring it in. Additional tuning, waxing and repair work is available at our regular service rates.
Do you have a showroom?
Yes. We have a small showroom at the factory where we sell limited-edition apparel and OFSR merchandise.

Series
Information
Each season brings a new collection of Offshore graphics, designed by founder and designer Josh Monin in Niseko. New season, new art. The steady rhythm the brand was built on.
Drawing came before board building. Josh was designing long before the first Offshore was pressed, and the topsheet has always been treated as a small canvas. Composition, colour, weight and balance. The same attention given to the shape beneath it.
A Craft graphic belongs to its season. Years from now, someone will spot one on a wall and know the winter it came from.
Series
Information
Urushi is one of Japan’s oldest decorative traditions, with a history stretching back thousands of years.
For Offshore, the process begins with original artwork created by hand using genuine urushi lacquer. The finished piece is then photographed and digitised, translating its depth, movement and surface into a graphic that can be reproduced on a rideable snowboard.
The result is not a lacquered snowboard. It is a printed interpretation of the original work, made to be ridden.
A new artwork is created for the series each season.
Series
Information
SR stands for Special Release.
It is where Offshore can follow an idea without needing it to become part of the permanent collection. Some releases begin with Josh in the Niseko studio. Others begin with an artist, a collaborator or something we simply want to make once.
Numbers stay small. Some graphics appear across a short run. Others exist on a single board.
What they share is simple: once an SR is gone, it does not return.
A moment, made physical.
Series
Information
iD puts the final graphic decisions in your hands.
Choose the texture, colours, logo treatment and name, then see the design take shape as you build it.
The choices are yours. The board beneath them remains Offshore: the same shape, construction and performance, hand-crafted in Niseko.
Save a design, come back to it later, or keep working until it feels right.
Series
Information
Custom starts with your artwork.
It might be a finished design, something still taking shape, or files that need a little work before they are ready for a snowboard.
Send them through and we’ll take it from there. We refine the layout, balance colours and prepare the artwork for the proportions and production requirements of your chosen shape.
Before anything enters the Kōjō, you receive a final digital proof to approve.
Once you are happy, the artwork is prepared for sublimation and your board enters production.
From first file to final board, we stay with the details.

Your artwork is sublimated into the topsheet, then the board is pressed, tuned and finished by hand.
Made for sublimation.
Every Custom graphic is sublimated into the topsheet.
The process reproduces colour and fine detail beautifully, but not every material or effect translates. Metallic inks, screen-printed effects, resin tints and finishes that rely on reflective or physical materials cannot be reproduced through sublimation.
Colours can also appear slightly different on a snowboard topsheet than they do on a screen.
We review the artwork with you and flag anything that needs adjusting before you approve the final design.
Your artwork. Your Offshore. One of one.
Series
Information
Studio+ begins before there is an artwork.
Bring an idea, a reference, a colour, a photograph, a feeling or simply a place to start. Josh works with you directly to find the visual direction and develop it into something that belongs on your board.
Years spent creating Offshore graphics have taught him when to add something, when to take something away and when a design has found its balance.
The process moves through conversation, references, sketches and revisions. You see the work develop and have the opportunity to shape the direction along the way.
Once the final artwork is approved, your chosen shape enters the Kōjō and is hand-crafted in Niseko.
One rider. One board. One graphic.
