After apartment furnitures in a box, now comes a compact surfboard from Nicholas Notara. The classic surfboard seems to just take up some more space, while you find the time to use it. Notara decided to design a collapsible surfboard to solve the problem. Made from carbon-fiber, designed carefully to maintain the balance and weight of its traditional counterpart, and with the help of 2 pins and a quick release level can halve in size. A very smart concept which I predict will be available soon !
