"I use the PARAGON in any good logging conditions. It's an incredible noserider that feels sensitive and nice. Mega tip control. Turns like crazy too."

PARAGON

The PARAGON is a workhorse for the traditional longboarder. A "Classic" California inspired stepdeck, designed to be extremely neutral. Very fast and loose off the tail and stable on the nose for pocket tip riding. The Paragon has a very even rocker profile with a slight step deck and edge in the tail which allows this board to flow and maneuver with ease while remaining a versatile noserider. A blended but deep concave in the nose with a modern down rail in the tail allows you to push through and drive out of your bottom turns and carry speed through your cutbacks. The Paragon is a favorite of the whole team.

Concept designed by: CJ Nelson X Ryan Engle
