Volume Hybrid-X

The Volume Hybrid-X is the third iteration of the Hybrid series with a focus on better paddle efficiency, start-up speed, and stability up front. With the wide point and thickness pushed forward to maximize foam distribution under the chest and towards the rails, this the best paddler of the Hybrid series.

NSP Volume Hybrid-X CSE Design

The design goal with the Hybrid-X was to create a board that paddled into waves really easy, then once up and riding, the back half of the board performs like a high performance shortboard. The tail measurement on this model is narrower compared to the Hybrid and Hybrid+, so when your back foot is planted over the fins, it will respond and turn on demand and also hold-in nicely when the waves are steeper and more powerful.

The entry rocker has been relaxed to allow for quicker start-up acceleration and speed from the take-off. This design tweak is also a bonus when the waves are flatter, and you have to work the board for speed. Lastly, the concaves have been softened to enhance the feelings of predictability and flow when transitioning from rail-to-rail.

Construction

Built in NSP’s CSE construction with a stringered SecureCell foam core, which compliments the Volume Hybrid X perfectly to deliver a responsive, high-performance hybrid that suits all wave types offering the light tightly durability to match.

Fin recommendation:

FCS II Accelerator or Toledo (Predictable feel with added control)
FCS II Reactor (Ideal for perfecting tighter turns)

Who’s the NSP Volume Hybrid-X for

Fast with lots of flow, the Hybrid X targets the intermediate-to-experienced surfer, wanting a super reliable, performance-based allrounder for small-to-medium size waves. This model is also valid as a travel companion for shredders not wanting to compromise on a performance approach to wave riding.

Richie Lovett is Shaper’s Union

The Volume Hybrid-X is a Shaper’s Union creation, a collaboration between NSP and world-class shapers like Richie Lovett.

Established to bring new energy and high performance to the surf line-up, Shapers Union is NSP’s way to showcase the incredible skill and talent of some of the most accomplished shapers in the world.

After ten years on the tour and developing a deep understanding of surfboard design, production and shaping, Richie Lovettt moved to finishing his own design in the shaping bay, eventually creating Volume Shapes as his own brand.

CSE Construction

Volume Hybrid-X CSE Construction

The Volume CSE range is built with NSP’s Custom Surf Epoxy (CSE) lay-up, featuring a CNC-cut 36g EPS core and a 3.6mm wood stringer. Laminated with full Biaxial fibreglass (220g), it incorporates a 4oz deck and a 4oz fin patch. Finished with a clear UV-stable resin and a satin rub, this construction delivers a durable craft with excellent flex, responsiveness, and a lightweight feel.

The epoxy resin, advanced custom layup and EPS core offer a responsive flex pattern. This enhances your connection to the wave without compromising response or feel. And the Volume Hybrid-X is not just for 1-ft, knee-high days — it’s been brought into the NSP Shapers Union lineup, ready to charge your sessions when the surf gets serious.

Why does the dimensions table say EST under “Weight”?

“EST” is short for “Estimated Weight”. Since all Volume Hybrid X are hand-shaped to detail by our shapers, weight varies from one board to another within a certain variance. So to calculate a true average weight, NSP reserves the right to manufacture a certain number of boards before publishing the official (average-based) weight.
