A shortboard for all riders and conditions
Accessible shortboard performance with some key design elements that help you paddle in and pop up. A flatter rocker helps you accelerate, while the rounder square tail allows for a host of setups for your surfing.
Wave Type: All conditions
Ideal Waves: 1-6 ft
Level: Intermediate to Advanced
Available in three different constructions, there is a Tinder-D8 for every rider wanting to take their surfing to the next level:
Protech
Protech performance custom lamination provides the sweet spot between custom shaping and high-end manufactured boards. This layup combines a 36g secure cell EPS core, laminated with a full 6 + 4oz deck and 6 + 4oz fin patch, carbon fiber-reinforced tail patches to distribute power to the fins, with a UV-stable resin tint and satin rub finish.
Thruster only for reduced weight
The Protech version of the Tinder-D8 comes as a thruster only. You can choose from five sizes, just like the Elements, but the Protech is significantly lighter. It has FTU boxes (all compatible with Futures® Fins) and comes out of the box with 3 MFC-designed fins. For a harder, even more performance oriented upgrade, make sure to add the Performance TR Thruster to your basket.
Colors
NSP’s tint lamination process gives each board a unique, artistic, and custom-like finish:
