Who’s the CSE Tinder-D8 for
The CSE Tinder-D8 is another chapter in NSP’s high-performance shortboard line-up, offering accessible shortboard performance by applying key hybrid shape elements. With more volume than the Chopstix, especially in the nose where it counts during paddling, a Tinder-D8 enables you to catch more waves and enjoy yourself at every session. The tail offers balance and speed, thanks to a flatter rocker.
A 5-slot fin cluster allows for fine-tuning and different setups, with FTU-compatible boxes.

Construction
CSE Tinder-D8 construction diagram
This Tinder-D8 is built with NSP’s Shapers Union high-performance custom surf epoxy lay-up. Our most seasoned shapers picked a unique glassing schedule for the board, instead of a one-size-fits-all technology.
Shapers Union high-performance, custom surf epoxy lay-up, with a clear UV-stable resin and satin rub finish utilizes a CNC-cut 36g EPS core, hand-shaped to detail, with wet lamination of full 220g (8oz) biax glass + 4oz deck and 4oz bottom with additional overlap on the rails + 4oz n patch and fiberglass-reinforced tail patches. This lightweight, durable shortboard offers plenty of flex for ultimate performance.

CSE Tinder-D8 Testimonials
When asked to just go surf the Tinder-D8 6’4, Mark Zahn set it up as a thruster, and he didn’t like it. He then set it up as a quad for the next day and loves it. He was asked to surf it at least 3 times as a quad before straight-up giving us the good and the bad feedback.
Here’s what Mark had to say…
“I’m loving that board man seriously haven’t felt this good surfing since I was like 40lbs lighter haha” – Mark Zahn, California
