hey, it depends on what you are looking for. NSP are easy to ride, but heavier in the water, where as circle one are lighter and harder to paddle, but gives better performance.

Plain and simple the NSP shapes are terrible. The only thing they have going for them is their durability.

The rails are bad, the boards are too narrow.

Not aware of the cirle one shapes but looks like they stole the name from the Kelly slater movie.

I considered both, but went for the Circle One in the end. It was just a lot better having something close to an epoxy custom rather than a heavier pop-out.

nsp's are good if your a complete beginer,but but once you learn a few things you realise how bad they are.
