These inflatable SUPs are long and narrow, which means they are lightning-
quick through the water but also very easy to manoeuvre, control, glide and
ride. Being inflatable they pack-down and can be easily transported to races
all over the world. Despite its practicality, there's no compromise on
performance.
Raised rails allow the rider to dig their feet into the board. This will give
a grounded stance meaning more energy can be channelled into each paddle
stroke.
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 28’’ wide Elite 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.
