Naish Mutatant Glass Sandwich 2026

The Mutant Glass Sandwich is a maneuver-oriented freeride board built for riders who like to mix it up. It is not a slalom board and it is not a pure wave board. It sits in the middle, fast and easy to ride, with the control to carve, jump, and play when conditions change.

Use it for coastal bump-and-jump, inland lake sessions, playful surf, and freeride cruising with a bit of freestyle. Multiple footstrap positions let you tune your stance for comfort, control, or a more surf-style feel. Thruster side slot boxes give you another layer of tuning, so you can set the board up to match the conditions and your riding preference.

The Mutant Glass Sandwich construction adds a smooth, damp feel through chop and landings while staying strong and durable. It offers a more forgiving flex than full carbon, giving you comfort and control when the water is messy.

A slight bottom bevel helps the board release cleanly and get going early without feeling twitchy from rail to rail. A balanced outline and a longer planing surface than a typical wave board improve early planing and carry speed with less effort. The medium-high nose rocker is high enough to handle chop and wave conditions, while staying efficient on flatter water.
