Choosing the Right Board: Pace vs Cruiser vs Roam vs Venture vs Speed

Compare

At Shark, we set out to create a range of boards that cater to every rider, every situation, and every skill level—no matter your height or weight. We believe we succeeded, and we hope you agree!

Find your perfect Shark

From the family-friendly Pace, a perfect all-around board, to the Cruiser Flow & Plus, ideal for beginners looking for a step up in performance, whilst keeping ‘all-round’ manoeuvrability. Adventure seekers will love the Roam, Our travel board range, which is light and easy to carry in its specifically designed travel bag. The Venture Flow & Plus boards are designed for long, easy days on the water with excellent straight-line tracking and come in board shapes to fit every rider’s height and weight. And for those chasing speed, the Speed Plus offers race-level performance with versatile usability and offers 5” and 6” thickness to allow all riders to feel connected to the water, even in the race series.

We think we’ve created the perfect board for everyone. We hope you think so too! What’s the difference between all the boards? The table below will help break down the details.
