Introducing the Tower SUP Line

Double-concave bottom improves flat-water tracking and speed in the
surf
Purposefully Shaped and Designed
The Tower SUP line was designed and developed in Southern California by a 25-year
veteran surfboard shaper that’s been featured in Surfer Magazine. While
they were designed within earshot of the breaking ocean waves in San Diego,
both designs are that of all-around SUPs with a focus on fitness-oriented stand
up paddle enthusiasts – one that will likely be used 50% of the time for
just paddling around for fitness, about 30% for sea and lake exploration, and
about 20% for surfing. They are designed to be very surf friendly in smaller/fun
2-4 foot waves, but with a mind towards flat water paddling as well.
Distinguishing Design Features
- Double concaves on the bottom - Enhanced flatwater tracking,
faster in the waves
- More floatation and stability – A critical component
of enjoying SUP. More is always better
- Ample rocker & beefier rails up front - To avoid nose
dives, and get up and over the chop
- Five fin configuration featuring premium Futures fin boxes
- Better flexibility of use
- Classic 1960 triple stringer surfboard look –turns
heads under your arm or on your car
- Sanded finish, not painted – faster in the water,
lighter, and wears more gracefully
Two Sizes
There are two boards in the Tower SUP line, an extremely high-floatation 9’10”
Tower Fit SUP and an 11’5” “tandem friendly” Tower Social
SUP. Due to a well thought out design, our 9’10” board has better
floatation and stability than most 12' boards on the market. It can float a
250 lb person effortlessly, as well as a full sized adult and a child riding
on the nose. It’s also 20% lighter and far easier to store, which is a
huge deal you’ll quickly discover as you get into stand up paddle boarding.
The 11’5” Tower Social SUP board is a quasi tandem board.

Two High-end SUPS, Two Economy SUPS, Same Design, Same Style
There are two versions of each of these boards, a higher-end US made line (manufactured
locally in San Diego) and an economy
SUP line made overseas (where 99% of SUPs are made – yes, even those
that sell for $1500+). The US versions is handcrafted by a veteran San Diego
shaper using all of the best materials available. These models retail for around
$1200. The economy lines looks virtually identical and includes all of the design
features listed above, yet is made with cost controls in mind. But smart money
understands cost controls don’t mean pinching every penny and on this
line we refused to compromise on essential elements like shape, design, and
a quality build. Even with that, these are among the best priced SUPs on the
market at a retail price in the $600s (due to a direct sales model – no
reseller layer and associated mark-ups), and we ship them for a flat rate of
just $89 anywhere in the continental US. The net results are great looking and
performing SUPs with many of the features found in high-end ($1200 - $1500)
boards, yet with a price tag below the cheapest made boards on the market.
