DJ, which are the “chalk and cheese” NSPs that you were referring to? Some of the old ones I've found to be pretty tough.

I don't mean it in a hard as chalk and as soft as cheese way.. I mean as in how different the old NSP surfboards and original 11' SUP etc are compared to the newer flat water race boards in particular the DC NSP boards.

Thanks. I'm guessing that's a down under idiom? I've never heard it before. I always like hearing new things like that.

Thanks for the replies. It's super cool to hear that an old bottom line company has upgraded their offerings to be competitive with the best. Definitely another couple boards to consider when I get my skills sorted and decide to replace the Falcon.  8)

The Pro Carbon is only offered in the skinny models, for the Sonic 14x23 and 14x24.5, and in the Puma 14x24 only.
It's the same for the 12'6 boards.

I have a lots of friends with the DC boards and they are state of the art quality designs and good enough for the best paddlers in the world to use and be very competitive on.. The new Sonic is an awesome board friends that have it says it's the fastest NSP DC ever.. It's a very serious race board.

BTW I just heard that DC (Dale Chapman) now has nothing to do with the race boards and only involved with the surfing range like shown in the link above so it will be interesting to see if they loose the DC graphics on the race boards in the future..

You can see the new DC NSP's in my vid from Merimbula at around the 9.20 mark..



thats interesting DJ knowing no more DC input to NSP race boards.
