RACE FINS NEW GRAPHIC

Surf Race 20 Designed by Titouan Puyo, Travis Grant, Marcus Hansen, Alain Teurquetil and Trent Pedersen, the Surf Race fin is the final result of several iterations being developed parallel to the NSP racing program.

For beach racing, buoy racing and the ability to pull off consistent kick turns in the middle of a race, the NSP Surf Race 20 is the more appropriate fin. Or in Travis’s words; it’s the fin better suited for turning and surfing. The Surf Race 20 fin comes standard with all NSP Puma boards. Length: 200 mm

Designed and carefully crafted to deliver the desired fin properties required in SUP racing: tracking, stability, efficiency, speed and acceleration. Suitable for pros and intermediates alike, these performance fins have been optimized to maximize efficiency:

Design Features:

• Foil design is optimized specifically for the speeds of SUP Race board • Forgiving foil design that minimizes drag even at high angles of attack • Plan form minimizes tip vortices while stabilizing the board at speed • Flex properties produce smooth and stable board reactions, even in chop, bumps and rough conditions • Generates forward lift when swell energy passes over the unique foil design, giving the rider a forward speed boost that is noticeable, resulting in faster runs • Light weight and strong • Available in three sizes to best suit your board size, strength, weight and conditions • Most men start with 24cm, Women start with 22cm and pros use the 20cm

PADDLE

Our NSP paddle range is designed to get you where you want to go with ease, efficiency and speed. Utilizing the best materials, lay-ups and production processes, NSP paddles are engineered with just the right amount of flex, strength and weight to allow for longer paddle sessions on the water.

The power face of our Speedster and Allround models are exactly the same, however the difference lies in the lay-ups. We now offer our top of the line carbon, eco-friendly coco fiber hybrid and an eco, but yet price-friendly carbon hybrid with a more pronounced dihedral.

The raised and extended dihedral provides more strength to the blade and allows a smooth transition and thinner blade. The edge is only 1.7 mm thick which gives a super smooth water entrance with initial bite. The raised tip is parallel to the shaft for aggressive catch and controlling the pace going through the power face.

Every rider will have the same feel when the blade hits the water. The new blades produce a lot of speed, conserve energy and allow paddlers a great session every time. #justaddwater
