As a core brand connected to windsurfing as well as surfing we started experimenting with boards and paddles about 4 years ago monitoring where the sport is heading and decided to launch a board and paddle program that suits the roots of this newly recovered ancient form of surfing. With master longboard shaper Harold Iggy it was only a question of time to find the right balance between longboard performance and the right easy access even for first timers.

The boards can be ridden :
- As stand up surf boards where the rider paddles into waves already standing up. You see the waves easier as you are higher up, you are faster to get to the right position in the lineup and last but not least it is easier to get to uncrowded spots. As a general rule it helps to stay away from crowded surfing lineups or at least show the proper respect and share waves.

- You can distance paddle using classic canoe paddling technique. In some locations like Maui we race downwind trying to catch the open ocean swells and surf them by connecting as many glides as possible. At the same time we try to catch breaking waves at the different outside reefs along the shoreline.

- Stand up Surf 11'6"; this board offers enough volume to suit any first timer to the sport. The width combined with enough thickness allow for plenty stability to focus on the paddling. The design also makes it easy to turn the board around which helps a lot when you need to get into the right position to paddle for waves. It features a carry handle. The board is laminated in a full wood venier construction, which makes it extremely tough against impact, and pressure dings. It shows a full wood venier reveal in the deck area and uses wax like a classic surfboard.

The Naish paddle is a classic Hawaiian blade design with a carbon/ glass blade and a specially treated T8 aloy shaft. The advantage to most carbon paddles is clearly the price as well as the fact that the paddle is tougher in terms of daily use and impact damages.
