What it was designed to do
The Happy Traveler sits in the Step Up / Travel Board board family and follows a Step Up / Travel Board direction. This describes design intent; it is not a score, award or claim that the model suits every surfer.
What it does well
Happy Traveler follows a Step Up / Travel Board direction within the Step Up / Travel Board family. Its moderate paddle support and Thruster fin setup help define where it may fit; the final result still depends on size, construction, rider and conditions.
