Naish SUP Hardboard Maliko Carbon 2024 – X23 Cobra – Thailand

Maintaining its legacy of being the best 14-foot open ocean and sprint board around, the Maliko has been awarded an endless collection of high-rank results across a multitude of race disciplines. With a raised nose rocker and added volume in the nose, the board is smooth with every stroke gliding through the chop. The rail has been refined with a smooth, rounded nose that transitions into a forgiving midsection, which finally morphs into sharp rails through the tail, providing excellent control and steering. Not only a downwind board, the Maliko is also a great sprint board, making this board the all-water superstar it is today. MFC Race Fin 24
