About this board

The Motion is Naish's do-everything freeride board and one of the most recommended first "real" twintips: soft enough to forgive landings and chop, lively enough to carve and jump, and utterly unintimidating at every step. It flatters developing technique without feeling dull once the basics are locked in — the definition of a board you grow with.
