Stand Up Paddle Boards (SUPs) and Surf Boards

"Surfing on a lake? I never knew you could surf around here." We heard this 10 years ago and we still hear it today. Yes, you can definitely surf on a lake, at least if its one of the Great Lakes. As a matter of fact, Tom Blake, who is credited with revolutionizing the sport by attaching a fin to the modern surf board, hailed from Wasburn, WI.

Check out the trailer from "Unsalted" on the 'video ' page if you've never seen a surfer catching a little fresh water stoke. Superior Surf Systems is now the North Shore's resource for boards, including Stand Up Paddle Boards (SUPs).

Stand Up Paddle Boards by NSP ($895-995)

The NSP SUP range has a board to accommodate all levels Stand-Up Paddleboarding...

10'0" — The 10' NSP SUP is the perfect SUP for new smaller Stand Up Paddlers or experienced wave riders that are looking for a traditional Longboard shape in a SUP. The 10'0" is equally at home in the flat-water cruising the lake with friends or jamming a cut back in solid surf, setting up for your nose ride routine! The NSP construction is super light and tough at these high volumes. That means this board will perform with board.

10'6" The Noserider — The 10'6" features all of the performance characteristics of the 10'0" board in the surf, and was originally designed for 70kg intermediate SUP'ers as an all-rounder. It surfs great and as the design intended, is a stable workout and cross training platform for working on those abs. However, this board noserides to the end of the earth! It is absolutely unreal and so easy to noseride you won't believe it – and for riders up to 85kgs! The durability and fact that it comes complete with full deck traction, leash and all the fins too, make it an unbelievable SUP for the price. The 10'6" will be an instant favourite at your local beach.

11'0" The Cross Trainer — The 11'0" NSP SUP is the perfect “do it all' SUP for anyone up to 90kgs. As the cross training wave of SUP paddlers are now finding their way into some surf, this board is gaining in popularity. The 11'0" is VERY stable, durable and light. And the fact that is has a surfing pedigree makes it that much more fun to ride. A blast in the surf or exploring the local fishing hole, while “working out" the 11'er does it all well.

11'6" This is a lot of board — Big paddlers, first timers, schools and flat water adventure paddlers will love this board. This board is super stable; noserides, surf's well, and can double as the family tandem too! Choosing the right board for your fist SUP experience is the difference between having a good time and a hard time. With the 11'6" NSP SUP, whether you are training, fishing, surfing or looking for a board that can easily do it all, the 11'6" NSP is a very good choice.

NSP E2 construction is as tough as it gets, we really like it and know you will too. The NSP SUP boards are a complete package with a leash, traction already applied and removable fins system all included. All you need to do is surf!

Fish Boards

Featured Fish Board - Super Fish Board by 7S ($465)

The Super Fish is one of the most popular boards ever made and continues to win converts worldwide! The reason for the Super Fish's success is that it blends high performance surfing with wave catching ability in a way that no other board has before it - a Shortboard with a step deck that works!

The Super Fish has high volume under the chest that allows you to ride a shorter board than usual while still raking in a high wave count. Add to that the performance low volume rail that lays over and cuts back like a performance Shortboard with half the volume, and it's a ripper anyone can ride!

The single concave and low entry make the board super fast down the line and aids in early entry as well as getting up onto a quick plane for easy speed. The board also has the optional tri/quad fin setup and comes with all five fins so you can ride it either way! This is one of the most fun designs ever shaped and it comes in a size range for every surfer! Enjoy!!

The number one McTavish design, the Fireball Evolution, features all the stand out design features that keep riders on the Evolution year after year. The pronounced nose bevels make noseriding and walking the nose effortless without losing the sensitivity to sideslip at will. The deep nose concave keeps you firmly perched out front. The deeper tail concaves to spiral vee keep the tail lively when you’re ready to hit that cutback and the revised tail lift keeps your cutback tight.

Funboards

Featured Funboard - Mini Magic Board - X-2 epoxy by Walden ($645-695)

The MINI MAGIC was designed for two groups of surfers asking for the same Magic board! One group of Magic Model Longboard riders wanted to try the Magic rails and bottom design in a smaller size range as they rounded out their quivers with smaller performance funshapes. The other group of Magic Model riders were smaller surfers and women that needed a narrower/shorter performance shape. Steve was only too happy to help them out and the Mini Magic was born!

The Mini Magic is built in the new durable X-2 epoxy construction. For 2011 we have also managed to reduce the weight of these boards to increase performance yet again!

With a thin wood veneer sandwich, the X-2 boards have the lively feeling and the durability to remain in your quiver for years. Feel good that the X-2 series was built with wood. It's a step forward for epoxy sandwich technology, performance and the environment.
