Description

Perfect for smaller paddlers, the 9'8" Ride inflatable paddleboard is a versatile, stable all-rounder for lightweight beginners and improvers in a wide range of conditions. This classic shape also suits heavier, more experienced paddlers looking to get into surf. A rounded nose and 31" of width offers a smooth, predictable ride, whatever the water state.

Constructed in our exclusive high-density MSL® drop-stitch, the 9'8" Ride is exceptionally durable and super-stiff at a reduced thickness of 4". Add our patented RSS battens and that rigidity increases by almost a third. So with a volume of 186L, it can comfortably accommodate paddlers up to 200lbs.

The high-traction deckpad provides a secure footing in all conditions, three super-soft handles make carrying comfortable and the adjustable cargo system adapts to most payloads. All Rides come fully equipped with a choice of paddle, a coiled leash, All-Terrain Backpack, repair kit, waterproof phone case, and 5-year warranty.

Versatile & Easy - The Ride Range

Versatile and easy to use, the boards in our Ride range are perfect for beginners and more experienced paddlers alike. These boards are designed to offer all round performance in a wide range of conditions. They combine unrivalled quality, innovation and design so you can focus on having fun!
TITAN II: Less Time Pumping, More Time Paddling

As an inflatable paddleboard company, we’ve long realised how important it is to blow-up our boards as easily as possible. That’s why we developed the original Titan pump – it was a real game-changer, halving the time it took to pump up...

Since then, our commitment to constant innovation has seen us push the boundaries of inflation technology. That’s why we’re so confident that our reimagined Titan II is the best pump on the market. Quite simply, it puts air into your board faster and reaches a higher pressure with less effort.

The double-chamber Titan II has a bayonet fitting at both ends of the hose, attached directly to the airbox to reduce leaks and so it doesn’t thrash about in use. Folding feet and a removable quick-release handle reduce the size by 30% when you’re finished, making it more packable and portable.

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.

Lovely first purchase

This was my first board purchase as relatively new to SUPing. The board is well made and the bag is very versatile, looks good and happy with purchase. After support and advice/tutorials are really helpful. The bonus was the sale price.

Great Product

If you are after the best you cannot go past RED. On the higher price for SUPs but you can see and feel where the value is. You get what you pay for.

Brilliant ride!

I bought this for my wife, at only 47kg she struggled on her previous 10' 6" board (from another maker). The Red 9'8" Ride MSL was an instant hit for her, much easier to control, turn and less prone to moving with the wind. She absolutely loves it and it was a very good price too!

The paddle board is the same, amazing quality to expect from Red Paddle. Fantastically rigid and good for flat water paddling, but also for small surf.
