Global

A performance wave board with no shortage of brilliance, the Global remains a heavy-hitter among the Naish lineup of surfboards—a fantastic stick for power surfing. The evolved shape, featuring thinner rails, lower volume, a narrow outline, single to double concave bottom shaping, and a new round pin tail, enhances your bottom and top turns, minimizes board chatter, and allows you to push into the pocket for tighter turns.

The Global’s durable proven construction focuses on strength and comfort, with a PVC sandwich deck construction that maximizes the strength-to-weight ratio. Built with EPS cores, carbon stringers, bamboo, high-density foam, and high-tensile fiberglass, this design minimizes heel dents and offers optimum reflex. Additional glass on the rails enhances durability and stability in challenging conditions. Running a thruster Future Fin setup allows for high modularity, and the partnership with MFC ensures enhanced adaptability and performance in different wave conditions.

The Global comes equipped with a thruster setup, and riders can purchase quad rear fins separately to fine-tune their ride to specific preferences and conditions, maximizing versatility. The optimized profile is designed for performance wave riding and faster down-the-line kiting. The redesigned bottom shaping improves control on bottom turns and rail-to-rail transitions, offering a smoother and more controlled ride. The new round pin tail assists in pocket riding, enhancing turning capabilities, and slowing the pace of your surfing when needed. This allows for more precise and controlled maneuvers, especially in critical sections of the wave.

Whether you prefer to ride strapped or strapless, the Global accommodates both styles. With its advanced features and evolved design—a favorite among team riders for high performance wave riding—the Global is set to push your sessions in critical sections and fast-paced down the line riding to the next level.

"I'm riding the Global 5'2 in medium to big swell. The weight of this board is well balanced, floaty, yet still light. Its narrow tail makes it easy to carve tight bottom turns and get the fins loose on top turns." - Catharina Edin

"It’s my favorite kitesurf board for wave riding. The 5’5 is my favorite size. Its round tail makes the board awesome for bigger waves. The wider nose makes the board good in smaller waves." - Clement Roseyro
