Naish Skater Surfboard 2026
$1,149.00
The Skater is built for progression, both strapless and strapped. It is fast and smooth on the water, and light and balanced in the air. You get easy upwind drive, predictable pop, and a board that stays controlled when you commit to airs and rotations.
SKATER
A wide tail, squarish nose, and parallel rails create a stable platform that planes early and tracks upwind with less effort. When you load up for takeoff, the wide tail and thinned-out, sharp rails in the back give you grip and release, so you can pop cleanly and repeat tricks with confidence. In the air the shape of the board and weight of the board make it easy for the wind to push it against your feet to make airs and strapless rotations part of your repertoire.
Fast, powerful, and predictable, every detail is tuned for comfort and control so you can focus on the next move, the next turn, or smashing through rough water. It comes with a full deck pad with cutouts and corduroy on the front two pieces, and diamond embossed on the rear pad with arch grip and tail kick for maximum grip and comfort.
Does not come with fins. Please purchase separately.
HIGHLIGHTS

For optimized traction underfoot without compromising positioning. The arch traction pad offers extra grip and comfort.
Tuned Profiling
Sharp, thin rails in the tail and square outline maximize a “twin tip” feel while maintaining surf roots.
Shaped to Pop and Fly
The wide tail gives your back foot a stable platform to push against. You get more lift off the water and more control on landings
Thruster Setup Control
Thruster fin setup balances drive and predictability. You get solid tracking upwind, control through chop, and confidence when you carve and load up.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Where's My Order's Tracking Link?
Tracking info is shared via email within 72 hours of most orders being placed. Be sure to check spam or "Promotions" folder in your Inbox, as sometimes our messages land there.
No Tracking Info Displays on Shipper's Website ...
It can take 48 hours for tracking info to display. Rest assured, your package is en route. Make sure to enter the BOL # (Bill of Lading) with no spaces in the tracking field.
Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico?
Yes, we have shipped to these locations for decades by quote. Please share your address, the item(s) you needed shipped, and if an airport cargo depot pickup is possible.
Canada and International Locations?
We ship to Canada lots, and the Caribbean some. Get a quote. We rarely ship items to Europe, Asia, and Australia as it's spendy. Quotes for international orders do not include import duties.
How Can I Be Sure My Board Arrives Intact?
Opt for our $99 "To Nearby Airport" shipping option at checkout. It relies on passenger planes, and offers our safest delivery. More far below.
What if My Board Arrives Damaged?
We'll work with our shipping partner to get you a repair credit or a replacement board. Please send photos of the damaged board (and box) to shipping@bigwinds.com.
My board made it ...
But no foot straps, fins, or vent plug?
Look closely through the packaging. Fins, foot straps and vent plugs are often concealed in a sheath of cardboard that's easy to discard. Also, check inside the board box, and shake the box to be sure. You'll likely dislodge a small box containing the missing items.
