While every paddleboard offers relaxed adventure, you’ll want to find the style that suits your use best. Our products of Loon, Aquabound and Cannon are the brands we feel are this newer industry’s most versatile and quality-focused.
- Inflatable – perfect where storage space is an issue. These boards inflate in less than 10 minutes yet are strong enough to take down mild white water rapids. Generally available in 8’ 4” to 10’ 6” lengths.
- Traditional – these boards are categorized by length, available in 9’ to 12’ lengths. The most popular size for women is 10’ 6” and either 11’ or 11’ 6” for men, depending on weight. Traditional boards are constructed in hard foam, hard plastic or epoxy.
- Fitness – fitness boards are designed to be large enough for yoga exercises and are characterized by a non-slip foam top. Sizes vary between 10’ and 11’ boards.
- Touring/Race – these are long and sleek boards that generally require some paddling experience. Lightweight, narrow and fast, these boards range from 11’ to 14’ in lengths and are typically made from epoxy, though the fastest touring boards are formed from carbon.
