Touring & Specialty Boards
If you want more speed and perhaps more carrying capacity, then a cruiser could be right for you. The tourer's faster speed appeals to those wanting to cover more distance in an outing, those wanting an aerobic fitness workout and those wanting to trip (point A to point B). Tourer's are great for recreational paddling, touring, sightseeing, exploring, tripping, camping, aerobic workouts, citizen level racing and mild downwinding. Some boards can even surf pretty well. Many are outfitted with gear lash points.
