SUNOVA Ghost 9’1″ x 32.5″ 150L SUP Surf

This board is now available at our shop

THE GHOST is an all-around ripper that will help you to surf better each day!

This board is the brainchild of “Creek,” aka Rick Weeks. His goal was simple: Hewanted a board that would make him surf better in everyday situations. Achieving that goal was a little more challenging.

After multiple revisions and prototypes, with changes to just about every aspect of the board, the final product version of the Ghost was born.

A fuller outline up front blends clean curves through the midsection into a hip that adds some special sauce. Paired with a forward fin placement and a flatter performance rocker, this board is quick and agile no matter where you’re standing. If you are looking for a board that does the hard work for you, look no further!

General goal | theme of the board:

High performance simplified! A board that turns without stepping back on the kick-pad and is super quick and agile no matter where you’re standing. A board that works as well in all sizes. True performance to suit virtually everyone in most conditions.

Wave type| size it’s working best:

Designed as a board for everyday surf, it excels in low power conditions, but also rips in some juice

Maneuvers it does best:

Snappy turns in the pocket, easy cutbacks, instant speed in low power situations.

Skill level it’s best for

Novice to Advanced.

Paddle Power

SPEED: Designed with low forward rocker and the easy release tail, it has good paddle speed for a performance board.

DIRECTIONAL CONTROL:Medium to low yaw, depending on size.

OVER WHITE WATER: The Pixie Flip Nose helps the board climb up the whitewater, and its ample surface area assists it over.

WAVE CATCHING ABILITY: Very Good.

What you thought of when you designed it?

As a lifelong surfer, I wanted to actually surf BETTER at 75, I wasnt ready for the scrap heap just yet. I needed a very different board to accomplish that!

Equally important: Every day I consult on board choices with SUPsters from all over the world.

I do deep dives, beyond their stats, into their personality, goals, challenges, conditions and abilities. Personal relationships are formed.

This gives me a unique understanding of exactly what sort of board would suit the vast majority of SUP surfers.

Goals collide! I knew that if Bert Burger could truly satisfy my personal goal, then we would also be producing a board that would suit virtually everyone, regardless of ability, age, size or conditions.

Berts magic tricks: The entire fin cluster is moved forward, placing the turn spot squarely under the feet of your average SUP surfer! Matched with a little trickery in the rail, snapping up the face is now an easy task.

Notably there is no loss of drive from forward fin placement, which means they are perfectly placed!
