PRO-9 NATURE FLEX
The NSP Pro-9 is designed by Carl Schaper as a performance longboard, and it is the most high-performance longboard in the NSP lineup
:Construction
Consider the CSE-version of the Pro-9 the most performance-oriented version with carbon elements and a 6mm wood stringer. The Nature Flex version comes without carbon elements and is considered the more eco-friendly version of the Pro-9, while the Elements version of the Pro-9 features the most durable construction in the lineup with wide, fiberglass stringers and our precise- and ultra-durable Elements moulding technology
Bottom: Soft roll to mid-V to V to double concave
Rider: Intermediate – pro
Wave Type: All conditions
:Shape
The Pro-9 is a longboard with as much shortboard crammed into it as possible. Carl Schaper will often point out the back-third of the board, as it fits almost perfectly on his 6’2” step up, with the same thickness, tail dimensions and rails. The bottom has a soft roll to V in the middle, running into V with a double concave in the tail
Talking about this version of the Pro-9, we have to say that the most significant improvement is in its nose-riding capability
:Fin Setup
The Pro-9 comes in a 4+1 fin configuration enabling you to be creative in your setup as a quad, thruster or single fin. NSP placed the Surf 10 fin box slightly further back, creating an ideal configuration for a thruster setup. The board comes with FTU fin boxes, making it compatible with Futures® Fins (fins not included)

Who the Pro-9 Elements is for
This is a low-volume, high-performance, and durable longboard. Built-in NSP’s Elements Technology consists of an EPS SecureCell core, wrapped in lightweight fiberglass. This moulded, durable shell allows for highly accurate shape reproduction with dynamic flex characteristics that high-performance riders love
The consistent feedback is that this board comes together in the more powerful swell, where bigger riders like to roam and use their strength and weight to full effect. Think serious speed from a longboard
Shaper’s Union
The Pro-9 is a Shaper’s Union creation, a collaboration between NSP and world-class shapers like Carl Schaper. Established to bring new energy and high-performance to the surf line-up, Shapers Union is NSP’s way to showcase the incredible skill and talent of some of the most accomplished shapers in the world.
Having collaborated with numerous world champions, from longboarding to short boarding, these artists and their shapes are now accessible to riders worldwide through NSP and the Shaper’s Union.
Residing on the island of Oahu, Carl Schaper operates from the legendary Sugar Mill, creating longboard shapes, guns and mini mals for surfing royalty from Hawaii and beyond. His knowledge of shaping and construction is an essential part of the Shaper’s Union DNA.
