How to store your board 

Before storing, rinse all equipment in fresh water and let it dry completely. 

To pack away, lay the deflated board deck-up and place the pump across the nose, leaving enough room to wrap the board over. Roll tightly, then secure with the strap. Use the backpack’s internal strap to secure the board inside. 

Store your board in a cool, dry place, out of direct sunlight. If keeping it rolled up, avoid excess pressure on the straps. If space allows, it’s best to store the pump separately. 

You can also leave your board inflated, ideally kept on a flat surface...

You can also leave your board inflated, ideally kept on a flat surface or upright – but do reduce the board’s pressure to below 15psi if not in use for a while.

What is MSL®? Safe. Stiff. Durable. 

Monocoque Structural Laminate or MSL® is the world’s leading drop-stitch material. 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.

Even great for tricks

I love this board so much. My canoeing buddies told me that it looked like I was glued to the board. The REDREDRED tread is the reason. It's narrow, but not tippy. Also, running rivers in early summer when the water level is a bit too low was a breeze. Walking up, walking back depending on what's happening from shallow bits to white water, you can make quick adjustments, even swinging the board in 360s for fun. This is so worth the price--especially if you get a couple of fin options, from stubs to longs. Plus the colours and style make this the sup version of a sneakerhead's dream shoe

12’6” Sport MSL

This is my third Red inflatable SUP and the product continues to surprise with its quality, utility and overall “fun value”. I am competitive paddle and bought this board to complement my 10’ Surfer and 12’6” Voyager. I took it for its test ride on Ullswater in flat conditions and I am very happy with the performance. Inflated well under 10 minutes, it held its line, glided very nicely and was easy to make it run at a decent stroke-rate. I had my 45 lb border collie on the front without much of a change in handling or glide. The shape is decidedly more “dagger” like than the Voyager and it runs differently as a result, less like a Land Rover Discovery and more like a Porsche Cayenne. I feel it would be easy to take gear for a 1-2 nighter light expedition, perhaps even with the dog.

Excellent first board for the heavier crew.

This is my first SUP and I have had it twelve months now. It has had a lot of use on canals, sea and rivers in all weather conditions except ice! At 98Kgs I am a heavier paddler and I sought advice from Red. The 12'6 is an incredible board, very buoyant and fairly quick. I love the pump and the build quality although the stainless fittings need regular oiling to prevent them rusting, in the screw threads particularly.

I use a deck bag and carry a weight of gear but always find the board comfortable and easy to manage. I have a few third party fins and an additional one piece paddle but the three piece paddle still gets regular use.

Great straight line board

Bought this board to compliment my Red 9'6" Compact. Wanted a straight line cruiser that can eat up the miles in a more efficient manner (on mainly rivers) and it doesn't disappoint. It goes in a straight line which is what I wanted. Noticeable glide. The build quality of the whole package is really high: The pump is improved on the earlier model and the bag is very practical. Only cons I noticed was comparing it with my compact 9'6" is I preferred the offset centre handle on the compact. New board is heavier and its not as easy to carry with handle in the centre. Little bit more strain on my carrying arm. Anything over a 150 m walk I would suggest inflating it where you will be launching from. Use the practical backpack options instead! I am yet to go out in perfect conditions with new board as It has been quite windy. Re that I do think the Compact is a lot better in windy, rougher conditions. It turns quicker and the wind doesn't quite catch the nose so I will be using that when the conditions are less than ideal however the 12'6 is a great speed board and I and really looking forward to taking it out in optimum conditions. Its also very buoyant and when sitting down and resting on it the deck seems to be drier (maybe due to thickness) I think the two boards do compliment each other really well and you are well covered for whatever your needs are. Overall I think I will be very happy with my latest Red paddle Board. Well worth the investment. Needless to say the…
