NSP 9’8 HIT Cruiser

IN STOCK!

The HIT Cruiser is ideal for paddlers wanting an all-around, family-friendly and durable paddleboard. Ultra-durable High-Impact Technology (HIT) was used to create this recreational SUP – a more durable and easy-to-use paddleboard for heavy-duty use. NSP worked on a proven shape from their successful Elements range and improved the outline, rail and bottom shape for a better glide on flat water. This directly affects the all-round paddling performance for everyday use, and with some key design characteristics accomplished paddlers will also appreciate taking the HIT Cruiser into small and medium waves.

NSP created the HIT Cruiser for paddlers requiring boards that are more durable, safer and bring additional key features to the table. A built-in hole on the nose allows you to quickly use a single steel cable to lock your boards at the end of the day. The full EVA deck allows beginners to safely explore the balance of the board, plus it’s comfortable on the knees for those who are not quite ready to stand up. Additional features include a standing guide, bungee tie-down and reinforced rails to protect your board.

Construction of the HIT Cruiser
HIT board construction uses eco-friendly SecureCell EPS cores that get fully wrapped in military-grade fiberglass. Once laminated with epoxy resin, the board is capped with extremely tough “bullet skin” (styrene-acrylonitrile), increasing longevity and impact resistance. Additional reinforcement of the rail bands protects HIT boards from paddle impact and general knocks. HIT construction also features a deck with premium thermoformed EVA over the entire length of the board. Delivering the ultimate in comfort and a ledge handle for easy carrying.
