Carolina 14'0 X 22 Pro Carbon 2026

The NSP Carolina Pro Carbon is the raceboard for anyone who wants to move up the field, whether the water is glassy, choppy or rolling with ocean swell. At 14'0 x 22 it sits in the middle of the Carolina range: fast enough to hold pace over distance, stable enough to let you push through the turns without wobbling. It is built in full carbon with NSP's vacuum lamination, so the hull is stiff and light and gives a calm, efficient glide lap after lap. For 2026 NSP raised the rails slightly to take on less water in the standing area, and shortened the recessed section so water drains faster when you throw it around a buoy. The centre of gravity is lower across the whole board, which keeps things settled even on the narrow 22 inch width.

• Size: 14'0 x 22 inches, 255 litres, built for racing and distance.
• Construction: full Pro Carbon with biaxial carbon on deck and hull, unidirectional carbon in the rails and vacuum lamination (AVS) for a stiff, light hull.
• Rails and deck: carbon dug-out rails for a wide, balanced stance, plus Innegra reinforcement in the nose and tail against impact.
• Fins: supplied with Race Fin 24 and 22 for solid tracking and acceleration.

This is the board for someone who takes training and racing seriously but does not want to own five different boards. A 22 inch in 255 litres suits a wide range of paddlers and conditions, and NSP's glide is known for holding speed between strokes. If you want a raceboard that feels fast and calm at once, and that follows you from flat morning sessions to chop to ocean swell, the Carolina Pro Carbon is a solid buy that lasts season after season.
