2021 Red Paddle Co inflatable SUP range

red paddle co 2021 october launch

Welcome to the future of SUP. Building on 12 years of Red Paddle Co development they are proud to bring you their most complete range to date. Clear innovative steps make the 2021 boards easier to use and faster to inflate. The 2021 Red Paddle Co range is the springboard into the next phase of SUP’s evolution. Red Paddle Co can now capitalise on the mass adoption of SUP across the world and really provide a clear distinction between cheap mass produced beach toy boards and the very best value for money that is a Red Paddle Co board. Owning a ‘Red’ really is something people are proud of and the new 2021 range is more desirable than any other edition Red has ever produced.

Never Compromise – The future of paddle boarding

Titan 2 Pump

2021 red paddle co titan 2 pump green water sportsThe Titan Pump has been completely re-imagined and re-engineered for 2021. Red Paddle Co have taken the already proven double chamber format and focussed on ease of use and ease of packing. They’ve also improved the fixtures and fittings to make for an even more durable pump.

The Titan 2 Pump by Red Paddle Co is the world’s first purpose-built, double chamber SUP pump. It’s designed to cut the amount of time and effort it takes to inflate your board by half. Constant innovation has led to us testing the absolute boundaries of inflation technology and as such, we’re confident that there’s nothing quite like the Titan II pump on the market.

The Dual Cylinder system, combined with the Hi Flo handle means you are in complete control of the energy used to inflate your board. It puts the volume into your board faster and reduces the effort required to reach a higher pressure.

V-Hull Tech

New for 2021, the 12’6″ and 13’2″ Voyagers feature the revolutionary V-Hull system, exclusive to Red Paddle Co. The sculpted bottom of the Voyager boards breaks the surface tension of the water increasing glide and helping the board track even better than before. The V-Hull has been scientifically proven to increase efficiency meaning you can paddle further with less effort. The V-Hull has the added benefit of creating a concave deck which provides a neat V for your forward cargo to nestle into and stay securely on board.

Flat Bungee

Unique to Red Paddle Co is the new Flat Bungee Cargo System. The new self-closing bungee straps are now larger, creating more tension to keep all your gear on your board!

All boards come with three bungee straps on the nose, setting you up perfectly for adventures to come. Voyager models have d-rings at the rear, but bungee straps are sold separately.

Speed Tail

The 2021 range of Red Paddle Co Sport boards continue with their square tail, but new for this year is the revolutionary water release system to aid speed on the water. The color matched square edge on the tail of the board promotes a clean release of water for optimal speed and glide. The sharp edge prevents water sucking up the tail which pulls the tail of the board down and creates drag. With the new Speed Tail, the water releases cleanly off the tail of the board and maximises your speed and glide.

Ride Twin Traction

Many boards in the Red Paddle Co range come with built-in fins – the high-performance iFin system. With moulded fins you don’t need any tools, replacements or spares. They are specially designed to be ultra-durable and easy to pack away for transport. If they ever bend out of shape during storage or use, it is extremely easy to set them straight again, simply pour hot water over the fins and reshape them by hand.

On the 2021 models, the iFins are now in a twin fin configuration with reinforced base. This allows for easier roll up of the board, but you don’t sacrifice any tracking or grip because the fins are now larger than previous years. They are deeper, 4.5″ up from 4″, and with a wider 6″ base so you get the same performance as the older fins in a 3 fin or thruster configuration, but with much easier roll up now. If you didn’t look, you wouldn’t notice as there is no on water performance difference.

Voyager Twin Fin

US Box Fins originated in the surfing world where they are widely trusted to do a great job. A number of Red Paddle Co boards use them, including all of the Elite race boards, Voyagers, Sports, Whip, Wild, Dragon and Windsurf boards. Red Paddle Co use several different types of fin depending on the board. These fins are inserted after inflation and are simply attached using a nut and bolt system.

For 2021, the 12’6″ and 13’2″ Voyager boards feature a Twin Traction Fin System. This Twin Traction Fin System allows the use of shorter fins to reduce catching in shallow water, but aiding board traction and making it easier to load up on land.
