If you're looking for an all around board that can do everything, from cruising outside the break for leisurely paddles, to surfing the waves inside, this is your board. While the focus is certainly on wave surfing, the stability and ease with which this board paddles has made it a favorite for those looking for one board that can be used just about anywhere. The length and width make the Vesper a dream to paddle out through the rolling surf, and get you into position for your surf in. The classic "longboard" outline glides easily and smoothly on the wave face, and everything from bottom-to-top turning to nose riding is possible. If mixing it up is your thing, then the Vesper will deliver.
