NSP O² Pioneer FS Stand Up Paddle Board Review - VIDEO

  • 2021-07-06 07:50:49
    Ken Hoeve and the NSP team spent over two years designing the new O² Pioneer FS Stand Up Paddle Board. Their goal was to create an extra-rigid SUP that was customizable for river exploration while still being fast and stable on both flat and moving water. While designed primarily as a river and fishing SUP, the O² Pioneer FS is 11’ long which allows it to meet the size requirements for most organized downriver races. Not only is it wide and thick it’s also long so it is as fast as it is stable.
