About this board

The Prime is North's comfort-first freeride twintip: a smooth flex pattern and forgiving rocker that iron chop flat and make long sessions easy on the knees. It planes early, holds a relaxed upwind line and never demands more technique than you have. Riders chasing competition pop will look further up the range — everyone else will simply enjoy riding more.
