Red Paddle Co Elite 12'6'' x 28'' Inflatable Stand Up Paddle Board

Lightning quick and yet so easy to control and ride

Despite its practicality, there's no compromise on performance. All Elite boards feature unique innovations which can be found on Red Paddle Co boards: The patented Rocker Stiffening System or RSS for short, counters flex with two stiffening battens that are inserted into pockets on the side of the board; Forward Flex Control System (FFC) then stiffens the front section of the board using a carbon compression strut to remove flex that can be created in a race and channels this towards the back of the board increasing overall board speed. The two combined work together to create the fastest inflatable SUP's currently available on the market.

The board also features double nose fins to aid tracking and displacing water from the deck of the board. The glass fibre centre fin supplied as standard gives the right amount of grip without adding drag, whilst the angled design prevents any debris from getting stuck on the fin. Multiple carry handles are included to provide fast entry and exit of the water and have been designed not to get in the way during racing. The diamond cut, Red embossed deck pad provides ultimate grip in control in all stages of a race.

The Red Paddle Co Elite 12'6'' x 28'' Inflatable Stand Up Paddle Board is the perfect entry board to racing or those over 110kgs/240lbs, also if the majority of your racing is done on the open ocean then the stability offered by the 28'' Elite allows you to focus more on putting the power down than staying balanced.

Red Paddle Co's patented RSS, or Rocker Stiffening System, makes their boards up to 40 per cent stiffer by displacing the rider's weight over a greater length of the board. It works by slotting two stiffening battens into pockets that are individually laminated on to the side of the board. The battens are attached to cords held down with hook and loop fastener tabs, making them really easy to remove.

MSL fusion composite and airtight coating, MSL involves fusing a second layer of hard-wearing polymer to the drop-stitch core at the raw material stage, removing hand glueing errors. The high-tech industrial process saves almost 2kg in weight whilst making the boards stiffer at lower pressures. With Red Paddle Co's third generation of MSL material now in use, Red Paddle Co's boards are more durable than ever, if you don't believe us then check out this of us driving a 22 tonne digger over it!

When you unpack your Red Paddle Co board for the first time, inside you'll find the lightweight . It's the world's best SUP pump and was created by Red Paddle Co's expert engineers to make inflating your board a cinch. The secret is in the dual-chamber system and high-flow handle, which pumps air into your board at up to 60mph, ensuring it inflates to the recommended pressure level while using less of your energy.

Red Paddle Co's Red Original Backpack is a perfect travel partner for paddleboarders everywhere, with internal storage for travel paddles, multiple carry handles, integrated wheels and sherpa back pack system which can stored for transport and storage.
