An all-out thoroughbred raceboard, the fully redesigned 14'0" Elite inflatable paddleboard is our fastest, stiffest board. Built in new super-light, ultra-stiff MSL®800 double-drop-stitch material with RSS battens plus FFC nose-rod to lock in stiffness, it’s extraordinarily rigid yet weighs less than 10kg. A real contender in the 14'0" fleets – there’s simply no need to feel outgunned by a hardboard...
This versatile racer is truly competitive across all disciplines – from technical to long-distance, flat-water to downwinders to surf-racing. Long, drawn-out rails tapering to a rounded pintail ensure amazing glide and distance per stroke, while 26" of width marries high speed with full-power stability.
An intuitive variable traction deckpad and reworked rail risers provide a firm footing for confident paddling and effective footsteering. A perfectly balanced central handle and forward side handles for beachstarts and transitions complete a performance-driven, race-winning machine – finished with adjustable flat bungees, a bottle holder, and M6 accessory mount for training practicality.

MSL®800: Superlight Stiffness
Lightning performance for longer boards. At 800g/m2 lighter than our ‘standard’ MSL®, MSL®800 utilises a super-fine inner weave to increase stiffness and reduce weight for a lighter, faster, more responsive ride on advanced paddling shapes.
Stiffness: A super-fine surface weave and reconfigured double-drop-stitch increase rigidity for more speed and agility.
Durability: : Retains the same rock-solid MSL® signature coating for reliable strength and longevity.
Weight: At 800g/m2 lighter than MSL®, MSL®800 saves up to 2kg on 14' shapes for improved performance on longer boards.
Packability: A high-definition weave allows for a tighter roll and reduces weight, so it’s easier to take everything you need on your next adventure.
Tec Air: Pioneering Paddle Board Design
Red Paddle Co is the only inflatable SUP brand that makes boards in its own private facility, using innovative materials and manufacturing methods to produce quality kit you won’t find elsewhere. The Tec Air process is how we refine and develop our boards.
We’ve taken standard inflatable technology and reworked almost every aspect of it. By pinpointing key areas, we’ve identified improvements – from the precise bonding of layers to the application of optimum rocker curve, triple-taped reinforced rails to our exclusive MSL® drop-stitch material, no element is overlooked.
Before going into production our designs undergo rigorous research and testing. (We’ve even run tractors and a 22.5-tonne digger over them – they were fine!) Then manufacturing each board takes 72 hours: that’s ten times the industry average. Unlike most other paddleboard companies, we never compromise on quality. It’s this unique Tec Air process that sets us apart.
RSS: Stiffening Up
Unique to Red Paddle Co, you won’t find our patented Rocker Stiffening System (RSS) on any other brand’s boards. RSS increases stiffness by up to 30% – which, combined with our super-solid MSL® construction at air pressures of 20psi+, makes Red inflatable paddleboards supremely rigid.
RSS battens are ultra-tough polycarbonate strips that slide into pockets in the rails as the board takes shape during early inflation. They reinforce the middle of the board, directly beneath where you stand. The system features on our Elite, Voyager and Sport ranges, plus 8'10" and 12'0" Compacts.
Essential to our high-performance ranges, RSS technology is particularly important for faster, more efficient paddling, heavier riders or choppier conditions, providing that hardboard feel. The battens are shaped for optimum stiffness and fit perfectly into their pockets, which are constructed separately before being laminated onto the boards.
