NSP Instigator 2.0 SLX Flax Surf SUP

The NSP Instigator 2.0 SLX Flax is a high-performance Surf SUP built for riders who want speed, tight turns and progressive surfing in more powerful waves. Featuring a deep single concave running from nose to tail, combined with a curvier rocker line and performance shortboard-inspired outline, the Instigator 2.0 is designed to go fast, turn hard and attack the wave vertically. Designed by Alain Teurquetil and developed alongside Ty Judson and the NSP team riders, the Instigator 2.0 SLX Flax has become a serious choice for paddlers looking to push their surfing further. The deep single concave works together with the rocker profile to generate exceptional speed and lift while maintaining a loose, responsive feel underfoot. Its squash tail, hard tail edges and compact turning radius allow the board to fit naturally into steeper, hollower waves while still carrying speed through turns and critical sections. The Instigator 2.0 feels lively and reactive, making it ideal for experienced riders wanting a more aggressive Surf SUP experience. The versatile 4+1 fin box setup allows multiple configurations including single fin, 2+1, quad or thruster, giving riders the flexibility to tune the board for different conditions and riding styles. Constructed in NSP’s SLX Flax technology, the Instigator combines lightweight performance with impressive durability and a responsive flex pattern for dynamic surfing performance.
