Who's it for? Yoga, pilates and fitness fans

People have always flocked to the water for its tranquillity and to find space to relax and destress.

Early on, we discovered people were taking their Red Paddle Co inflatable SUPs to the water for yoga, pilates and stretching, so we created a board specifically for them. The latest version of this is called the 10’8” Activ, a specially adapted version of our 10’8” Ride. That means it’s made using our Tech Air process, which makes it very rigid, and it’s also nice and wide, so perfect for yoga poses.

The final touch is the EVA deck, which turns it into a full yoga pad. All that said, it’s not just a floating platform – like every board in the Ride family, it glides beautifully over water.

MSL fusion composite and airtight coating New for 2016, MSL involves fusing a second layer of hard-wearing polymer to the dropstitch core at the raw material stage, removing hand gluing errors. The high-tech industrial process also saves almost 2kg in weight and makes the boards stiffer at lower pressures.
