At a volume of 200.5 liters and a width of 31 ¾”, this 9’10” board has more floatation and better stability than most “traditional” 11’6” plus cruisers on the market. It will effortlessly float a 250 lb paddler, or even an adult paddler and a small child riding on the nose. In a world of 30+ pound behemoth SUPS that barely fit in a garage, this sub-25 lb SUP is a featherweight that transports easily and stores more like a surfboard than an SUP. It achieves this by going a little wider (the primary determinant of stability), a lot thicker, and counter-intuitively almost a couple feet shorter. Volume and floatation is added (using more foam, which is the light part) while weight is reduced by minimizing the overall surface area (minimizing the epoxy resin and glassed surface area, the heavy part). What’s more… its outline shape is more like a great big shortboard, rather than a long board, so it enjoys performance benefits in the surf as well.

Perhaps as classically beautiful as it is functional, the Tower Fit 9’10” is a perfect meeting of form, function, and good looks. A classic, triple stringer surfboard look with ample rocker, a thin, sexy squash tail, and a simple, yet elegant sanded finish make for a 60’s throw-back Southern Californian look. It feels like a surfboard. It looks like a surfboard, intentionally. Don’t be surprised when it turns a few heads at the beach… in stark contrast to the majority of goofy, painted windsurfer-like SUPs flooding the market.

The finishing touches on the board were given just as much thought. Unlike many SUPs, where the traction pad is an afterthought, the sharp looking Tower branded traction pad was designed as an accessory to enhance the beauty of the board. A five Futures fin box configuration was added to allow for flexibility in intended use, and a screw in air vent is built into the board.

The Tower Fit 9’10” - a great board that’s easy on the eyes, easy to carry, easy to store, and quite simply easy to fall in love with.
