Fins

Whether you ride thrusters, quads or something even less conventional, with a very complete 4+1 cluster, the Instigator is going to accommodate your favorite fin setup. It comes with four FTU boxes (compatible with Futures® fins) and a single US10 slot.

Out of the box, each Instigator comes with a set of  J3 performance side bites and the Wave 6 center fin.

The NSP Instigator is an Alain Teurquetil design.

The Instigator is a take-no-prisoners performance board.

Featuring a deep single concave nose to tail and slightly curvier rocker complimented by a heavily influenced performance shortboard outline this Surf SUP board is designed for those who are about to rock.

With its curvy rocker, squash tail, and hard tail edges the concave acts to straighten the curve along the stringer creating a board that is blisteringly fast but has a short turning arc that wants to go vertical and fit into hollower waves.
