North CROSSFreeride Surf2023

NEW Compact Surf Outline

We’ve moved the wide point slightly further forward and kept the area in the nose, giving you a little bit more front foot stability and a nice planing surface forward of your front foot, which makes it easier and more forgiving to ride. Anyone can get on it and feel like a pro. There’s no 'where should I stand” or 'this feels twitchy” – it just locks in and feels totally comfortable.

NEW EcoLite Construction

E-Glass layered with bamboo veneer top and bottom for impact resistance. By using thin layers of bamboo veneers in the laminate, you gain global stiffness of the board and impact resistance at once, while keeping the board weight really low. The new Cross has a very agile and direct feel. There's no delay when you give a steering command. It is also soft on the landings and handles the choppy conditions extremely well.

Honeycomb mesh packaging 

Conventional cardboard box packaging is very rigid and offers little cushioning or support around large, curved items like our surfboards. As a solution, the space between a product and its box is often filled with polystyrene, bubble wrap and other single-use plastic materials to create a layer of protection. Many of these materials cannot be recycled and contribute to the plastic waste that ends up in our oceans and landfills.
