About this board
The Summer vibes Performance Longboard is a fast, lightweight HPLB surfboard for surfers who want longboard glide with sharper rail-to-rail control. At 9'1 it paddles early and trims with ease, while the performance outline and 1+2 fin setup keep it responsive from the tail when the wave starts to stand up.

What is not covered by warranty?
