NSP
The Magnet is a funboard shape for weekend warriors appreciating PU and glass construction and vintage surfing style in general.
Based on our best-selling funboard shape, the Magnet benefits from a PU (polyurethane) core, adding some weight that translates to more hold in hollow waves, and a more composed riding character.
Wave Type: All conditions
Ideal Waves: 1-6 ft
Level: Beginner – Expert
Design
A stunning combination of style and performance, the Magnet is one of the most popular shapes in the NSP range, with built-in classic PU & glass construction, available in the clear coat, sky blue, or Sunburst design.
The 6mm stringer doesn’t just look pleasing, it also improves the strength and rigidity of the board. A satin rub finish differentiates its look from more conventional designs.
A semi-rounded nose with a low entry rocker design puts more volume upfront, giving you more paddle power to catch waves early and easily.
The domed deck profile allows a forgiving but sensitive rail feel, while the rounded pintail is pulled in, adding control in bottom turns and cutbacks. The concave bottom creates a fast water transition through to the tail – providing balance and control in a range of conditions.
Fin cluster
In addition to the 8″ single fin that the Magnet comes out of the box with, the five-fin cluster on the tail section that’s Futures compatible offers plenty of tuning options. Combine the 8” center fin with side bites or go quad on average-to-smaller days. Keep the thruster setup for the bigger days when conditions allow for committed turns.

NSP was born in 2001 from the vision of Bruce “Buzz” Hansen, a life-long surfer, skater and all round waterman. While working on Maui as a custom surfboard builder, Buzz had an epiphany about producing affordable, versatile, durable and great performing surfboards. Thus, NSP was born.
