The Mirage Activate Ultimate is the boardshort Gabriel Medina trusts—3x World Surfing Champion, zero compromises. Recycled Mirage Pro fabric cuts weight, resists salt, and dries before you paddle back out. DWR hydrophobic coating sheds water like a second skin, while welded critical seams keep the lineup’s chop from pulling threads. The compression liner isn’t just rash-free mesh; it’s body-mapped with silicon grip to lock your shorts in place through every snap. Mid-fit, 19″ outseam—just enough length to stay put, not enough to drag. Yucca colorway, engineered sublimation print, no logos screaming for attention. This is gear that performs when the wave does.

FAQ
Do these boardshorts have a liner?
Yes—compression liner with body mapping and silicon grip. It’s rash-free mesh, designed to align posture and stay put through turns.
How do I wash them to keep the DWR coating?
Cold machine wash, line dry. Skip the fabric softener—it clogs the hydrophobic coating. Reapply DWR spray after 10 sessions.
Are these good for all-day wear or just surfing?
Built for the water first—DWR coating, welded seams, compression liner—but the recycled Mirage Pro fabric breathes well enough for post-session hangs.
What’s the difference between 19″ and 20″ outseam?
19″ is the mid-fit length—covers the thigh without restricting pop-ups. 20″ adds an inch for taller surfers or extra coverage.
