Available in three different constructions, there is a Tinder-D8 for every rider wanting to take their surfing to the next level:
NSP’s high-performance line comes with an epoxy lay-up, a UV-stable resin, a satin rub finish, and fiber patches in the tail for rigidity. CSE shapes benefit from specific glassing schedules and the Tinder-D8 in CSE comes with a 5-fin cluster for various tuning options.
Nine sizes, five-fin cluster
The CSE range features nine sizes from 5'6" up to 6'10", fin boxes are FTU (Futures® Fins compatible) - Fins not included. CSE high-performance construction comes in a single design. So if you want to ride quad, make sure to add a set of NSP Performance Quad QD 4.0 to your basket, or pick the Performance TR Thruster 4.7

Protech performance custom lamination provides the sweet spot between custom shaping and high-end manufactured boards. This layup combines a 36g secure cell EPS core, laminated with a full 6 + 4oz deck and 6 + 4oz fin patch, carbon fiber-reinforced tail patches to distribute power to the fins, with a UV-stable resin tint and satin rub finish.
Thruster only for reduced weight
The Protech version of the Tinder-D8 comes as a thruster only. You can choose from five sizes, just like the Elements, but the Protech is significantly lighter. It has FTU boxes (all compatible with Futures® Fins) and comes out of the box with 3 MFC-designed fins. For a harder, even more performance oriented upgrade, make sure to add the Performance TR Thruster to your basket.
Colors
NSP’s tint lamination process gives each board a unique, artistic, and custom-like finish:
