The Red Paddle Co Ride 8.10 is extremely durable and has been tested to destruction, making it the perfect travel surf SUP. It’s got a narrow tail, a removable, adjustable fin from world leading surfboard fin creators FCS and Red Paddle Co’s patented RSS batten system, which makes it super-stiff for maximum manoeuvrability.

The smallest of the Ride family is the 9’8” Ride, an inflatable SUP designed for all-round usage for lighter riders. You’ll get the best out of it if you’re under 70kg/155lb, but that doesn’t exclude heavier riders. In fact, for heavier riders, the 9’8” makes a great surf shape. Key to the 9’8″ Ride’s versatility are its dimensions. It’s 787mm/31” wide and 100mm/3.93” thick, which makes it a stable but manoeuvrable board.

The Red Paddle Co Ride 10.6 is already the world’s most popular inflatable SUP but continues to win numerous SUP industry and consumer awards.
Such success is due to the unrivalled quality, durability and innovation of all Red Paddle Co boards, but also the versatility of the Ride 10’6″ inflatable SUP. It’s designed to float and glide easily on flat water, and it has just the right amount of curve in the plan shape so it rides smoothly and predictably in surf, no matter what kind of rider you are

Larger riders should look for a board with more stability, which is where the 10’8” Ride comes in. It has all the same qualities as the 9’8” and the 10’6” Ride Boards, but it’s two inches wider at 34”/863mm and has an extra 56 litres of  volume, creating a more stable ride. It’s also 4.7”/120mm thick, which means you get greater stiffness at lower pressure. In fact, it’s more than 40 per cent stiffer than a standard 4”/100mm board at the same pressure. The rounded tail makes the board really manoeuvrable when you get your weight back and can be a great way to have your first SUP surfing experience. You can easily take a small passenger on board, which is why it’s a hit with family paddlers.

The Red Paddle Co Sport 11’0” offers a step up from the Ride family and has been designed for the more experienced paddler to deliver more speed and dynamic performance (although they’re not race boards). It’s secret lies in the boards sleek shape which cuts through the water cleanly, and the drawn-out nose section gives them more glide across the water. The 11’0” offers fast inflation and great flat-water performance for riders up to 90kg/198lb. If you are looking for slightly more stability then the 11’3″ Sport is suited to a slightly larger rider, or if you want something for longer touring trips then check out our 12’6″ Sport.

The Red Paddle Co Sport 11.3 offers a step up from the Ride family and has been designed for the more experienced paddler to deliver more speed and dynamic performance (although they’re not race boards). It’s secret lies in the boards sleek shape which cuts through the water cleanly, and the drawn-out nose section gives them more glide across the water. The additional width of the 11’3″ Sport offers the same great stability as our 10’6″ Ride making it perfect board in the Sport range for larger riders. For those looking to go on longer touring trips then the 12’6″ Sport is also worth considering.

The Red Paddle Co Sport 12.6 is the longest of the three, providing the most glide and speed whilst still being easy to paddle. It is a great board to bridge the gap to our race boards however the 30″ width offers great stability so you can really enjoy longer touring trips. If you are looking for a board that will eat up the miles in a leisurely fashion then look no further.

Extra stability and rigidity makes this board the ideal vessel for long-range outings. Increased thickness and capacity makes the 12’6″ Voyager super-stiff and stable, so it’s perfect for taller, larger paddlers and longer outings in a range of conditions. The durability of the boards offered by our MSL technology allows you to explore with confidence so any adventure is a possibility. Extra length and volumen means it can easily handle a person on the front while you paddle.
