Hi Maurus and Claudio welcome back to TotalSUP! What have you been up to?
Claudio Laible: With Christmas just around the corner we look back to a successful season, with lots of highlights and Indiana’s stories. Our ambition is to deliver the best products and maximize fun on water with our SUP, FOIL and SURF range. We love our products but we always see potential for new improvements and innovations.

Lots of podiums for the Dugout Hollow Carbon Raceboard 14’0 thanks to Indiana’s Ambassador Manuel Lauble
