The Sweet Potato is probably the widest, flattest and thickest small wave board you will ever surf.

This is the board that does not need to leave your trunk.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">The new Sweet Potato is updated with the Swallow Tail, the latest version of Mannkine\u2019s small wave shape that has made surfing what it is today for many riders. It turns waves that would normally require a longboard into usable waves, and thanks to its large volume, it is loose and produces a lot of drive.<\/span><br \/>\n<span dir=\"auto\">The board has a double concave that makes it feel much narrower than it actually is. The new tail shape, along with some changes to the board\u2019s design, has increased its maneuverability and allows it to make sharp turns at the top of the wave without compromising speed and drive in weak waves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong><span dir=\"auto\">Wave type<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">This model is perfect for days when most surfers would bring a longboard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">This board is fun and great for small waves, requiring very little effort to paddle. It is a high-performance grobber for anything below head height, but it really excels in waves at waist height and below. Recommended for waves 30cm to 1.5m high, and is suited to weak, plump and flat conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-345 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/surf-eu.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/new_site_pdp_image_with_text_sweet_potato_wave_typeimage_with_text_desktop.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"1400\" height=\"980\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ninaspector.com\/surf-eu.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/new_site_pdp_image_with_text_sweet_potato_wave_typeimage_with_text_desktop.jpg.webp 1400w, https:\/\/ninaspector.com\/surf-eu.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/new_site_pdp_image_with_text_sweet_potato_wave_typeimage_with_text_desktop.jpg-600x420.webp 600w, https:\/\/ninaspector.com\/surf-eu.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/new_site_pdp_image_with_text_sweet_potato_wave_typeimage_with_text_desktop.jpg-300x210.webp 300w, https:\/\/ninaspector.com\/surf-eu.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/new_site_pdp_image_with_text_sweet_potato_wave_typeimage_with_text_desktop.jpg-1024x717.webp 1024w, https:\/\/ninaspector.com\/surf-eu.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/new_site_pdp_image_with_text_sweet_potato_wave_typeimage_with_text_desktop.jpg-768x538.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong><span dir=\"auto\">Characteristics<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>This shape has been a game changer for many, thanks to its functionality and flexibility.
