C1 PP - 40.5" COUNCIL

The Sniper Bodyboard Council takes its origins in our riders search for excellence. As a way to provide each of them a pro model, we decided to create a new range, using their custom boards specifications. Each member of the team defined the perfect board according to his riding and experience, to offer a high end range of boards suitable to all styles of riding and wave conditions . Each of these masterpieces fits the particular needs of our pros : shape, core, size, specific options. The Council is a step to the era of custom. JOIN THE COUNCIL...
