HP 1 LONGBOARD

Description:

The HP 1 is our claim to fame. Ridden by professional longboarder Toby Smith (2007 Unsound Pro longboard champion) and NS shaper Mike Becker, the HP1 is our best all around performance longboard. Most longboards are designed for either performance or nose riding—the HP 1 does both. In order to achieve this, we have been modifying the shape in increments of 1/8th of an inch since 1997. For the surfer that wants a longboard that maneuvers like a shortboard but still noserides, this is the shape for you. The double barrel performance bottom with a hippy outline and drawn in tail makes for an extremely pivotal shape while the nose concave creates lift for maximum tip time.
