The Zero is our longSUP dedicated to high performance. Its new 2022 version retains all its character in the curves with a little more versatility thanks to its buoyant nose as Mathieu notes in his feedback.

“Same but different! First wave session today.

When paddling, we feel that the balance has changed, there is more lateral tilting. The nose is a bit narrower but it has taken on curves, it looks like the XXS version of the NFA, it looks a little more buoyant and noserider than the 2021 model. On the take off, the entry into the wave seems more gradual and smoother than on the 2021 version, I had the impression that you need more downforce to pump as efficiently. Perhaps it is due to the rocker which seems a little more heavy?

In any case, it seemed to me that it is capable of turning even shorter at the bottom of the wave: the nose is not bulky and there is a big rocker under the feet. We feel an ability to go for turns that are quite improbable for a SUP of this length. One thing is certain, the efficiency of the tail is still there. For me it’s the best you can have under your feet, a real trigger to turn when you are all set!”
