Cruise Elements
The Cruise Elements design is one of the most popular boards in the NSP range, and by design one of the most popular SUP in the world.
Paddling along, and gently crossing a quiet body of water is the essence of the stand-up paddling experience. We’ve found that most SUP athletes covered their first meters on an NSP Cruise at some point. Its forgiving shape and universal accessibility make it a worldwide favorite.
Cruise Elements Features
• A double concave delivers glide and rewards as a super stable board that performs best on flat water, small waves and breaks
• The combination of fiberglass, durable gel coat skin, glass stringers, a wood layer under the standing area and a secure-cell EPS core make this board durable, great value and with enough performance to enjoy it for years to come.
• Bungee cord on the nose to carry all your gear.
• Thermoformed EVA deck pad for ultimate grip and comfort
• FCS plug on the nose to mount your action camera

What riders are saying
Stable is the common thread. One owner says his Garmin times on the lake got much faster after moving to an 11' Cruise, and that it's easy to load on top of his Wrangler. Most of the rest are short, and a few are about shipping and service more than paddling.
Based on 7 reviews across 1 site, averaging 5.0 / 5.
