A flat deck board suited for all paddlers, in all conditions.
Athletes who prefer a conventional shape over a recessed cockpit race the NSP Puma. The most versatile and user-friendly board in the NSP range, the PUMA Pro Carbon shares its bottom and rocker line with the latest Carolina, improving stability at equal width and significant improvements in speed.
Originally designed for beach racing, the Puma has evolved into a very capable downwind- and flat-water board.
Increased stability over previous models, with the same width as last year’s design, will let you come racing on top every time. Whether it’s a crowded buoy turn, a difficult beach break, or a demanding sprint; stability is everything.
If you want to kick-turn easy, if you want to play in the waves, if you want to downwind and you love flat-deck race shapes, the NSP Puma is for you.
The Puma boards share a rocker line with the latest and greatest Carolina Pro Carbon race board, giving racers that extra stability and speed that will get you to the finish faster.
Our world-class Surf Race 20 is the more appropriate fin for beach racing, buoy racing and the ability to pull off consistent kick turns in the middle of a race or in Travis’s words; “It’s the fin better suited for turning and surfing.”

Elite Pro Carbon technology construction when winning is all that matters!
– Cutting edge aerospace carbon fibers and ultra-light core materials are combined with our unique vacuum construction, making Pro Carbon the lightest, stiffest and fastest racing construction technology available.
– Featuring a PVC reinforced deck for integrity plus carbon rails for stiffness reducing flex and making the board ultra responsive.
– Carbon Innegra™ reinforcement adds impact protection around the rail lip, the nose and tail for close quarter battles at race starts and from the chasing racers in a draft train.
– Pro Carbon is an elite construction technology that is standard in our production race boards allowing you to own exactly the same boards that NSP pros Travis Grant, Titouan Puyo, Annie Reickert and Ty Judson win on.
By using Innegra™ Carbon for the rail lips in favor of “conventional” biaxial carbon, one of the most ding-prone areas on any race board is drastically reinforced without weight penalties. Ding resistance, durability and damage tolerance all increase, protecting your equipment. All 2020 recessed NSP Raceboards benefit from this new construction, along with Uni-directional rail bands (on the side) and 100% biaxial carbon layups (on the deck and bottom).
