Built in our latest, super-light, ultra-stiff MSL®800 double-drop-stitch material.

MSL® (Monocoque Structural Laminate) is the world’s leading drop-stitch. Exclusive to Red Paddle Co boards, it’s made to our exact specifications.

Monocoque: meaning the coating is integral to the structure. MSL® drop-stitch technology integrates a highly durable, reinforced coating to the ultra-high-definition weave to form an inseparable base layer.

Structural: the high-tensile drop-stitch fibres are designed to withstand pressures in excess of 22psi, meaning Red boards can be inflated to provide unrivalled stiffness and confidence, no matter the rider weight or prevailing conditions.

Laminate: the reinforced composite coating is bonded to the textile core using machine welding that applies heat and pressure to the inner PVC layer, saving over 2kg of adhesives and reducing cosmetic and safety concerns. Produced under low tension, this process creates a torsional stiffening effect when the boards are inflated, making MSL® stiffer at lower pressures.

RSS BATTENS

Red’s patented Rocker Stiffening System (RSS) utilises two external pure plastic battens to provide up to 40% more stiffness.

SPEED TAIL

Hard release edge at the tail of the board reduces drag for increased speed and glide per stroke.

CARRY HANDLE

Soft touch, ergonomically designed tubular centre handle for easy, comfortable carrying – elongated to allow balanced portages with cargo attached.

NOSE & TAIL HANDLES

Padded, soft-touch handles at the nose and tail allow you to easily pull the board out of the water, or comfortably carry as a pair.

CARGO SYSTEM

Six-point flat bungee cargo system for hassle-free, secure kit storage during your adventures – plus twin D-rings provide extra rear attachment points.

SMALLS LOOP

Adjustable cargo bungee for smaller essential items – ideal for water bottles or footwear.

DECKPAD

Super-grippy ‘Red’ embossed EVA deckpad for optimum traction and comfort underfoot.
