The Source line is the result of Amundson's quest to make a board for everyone on the beach, so they can succeed on their first day on the water, and then come back for more. The deck pad goes all the way to the nose, so you can take your kids or dogs along for a ride. There are multiple deck inserts for attaching tackle boxes and coolers, so you can do a little fishing. But most importantly, these boards simply paddle like a dream. You would never think they are so big, as they accelerate quickly and glide nicely. They can even handle mellow surf. So if you are looking for the most stable boards on the water, then the Source is your answer.
