The Pride Realest bodyboard is the pro model of Tristan Roberts, two-time world champion (2019 & 2022) and one of the most explosive and dominant riders in modern bodyboarding. Tristan has been part of the Pride family since 2012, and many of his achievements have been made riding this same model, designed to reflect his authentic, aggressive, and highly technical style.
The name “The Realest”, inspired by Tupac Shakur’s concept of honesty, authenticity, and respect, perfectly represents both Tristan and this board. The Realest is a 100% prone-oriented board with a straighter shape, extra thickness for increased volume, and a wider outline — ideal for those seeking explosive speed, maximum buoyancy, and high performance even in small to medium conditions.
This version features the NRG+ 1.4 core, developed using advanced cell-expansion technology to replicate the performance of the legendary Dow™ cores, known for their exceptional flex and sensitivity. This core is designed for riders who need more flexibility in cold waters or prefer a high-performance board with increased flex capacity.
Thanks to its innovative structure, the NRG+ Core 1.4 offers the perfect balance of lightness, responsiveness, and sensitivity, providing a more lively feel and adapting better to cold-water conditions where other cores become too stiff. Ideal for those seeking maximum maneuverability, superior control, and consistent performance regardless of temperature.
Perfect for riders who need a flexible, fast, and reactive board, the NRG+ technology ensures a smoother, more technical, and more responsive bodyboarding experience.
It also integrates the Single to Double Concave (SDC), a system that optimizes water flow under the board to generate more speed, lift, and control — essential for high-performance bodyboards.
The Pride Realest is the perfect choice for riders looking for a fast, voluminous, responsive board designed to compete at the highest level, directly inspired by one of the greatest bodyboarders in history.
