Combining speed with stability for progressive paddlers and longer routes, the redesigned 12'6" Sport+ inflatable paddleboard is a capable cruiser and crossover tourer. Performance-driven yet playful and practical, the 30" wide planshape promotes glide, with a hard-release Speed Tail and sleek nose that efficiently cuts through the water.
Offering exceptional stability, particularly in chop, at just 4.7" thick the 12'6" Sport+ sits low to the water to maximise balance and minimise windage. Constructed in our new MSL®800 double-drop-stitch material, it’s much lighter yet even more rigid than ever before, reinforced with our patented Rocker Stiffening System (RSS) battens.
A generous 278L of volume, reconfigured for faster inflation, is plenty for heavier riders and load-carrying. Fully fitted with adjustable cargo system and three soft-touch handles for touring comfort, plus a variable traction deckpad for intuitive foot placement.

Care:
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 or upright – but do reduce the board’s pressure to below 15psi if not in use for a while.
