THE BOARD

Speed-Oriented Shape with Stable Platform

At 11'3" length and 32" width, the Sport delivers a drawn-out nose for improved glide and a wide stance for stability, making it a fast, confidence-inspiring choice for paddlers who want performance with balance.

THE KIT

Everything Included to Get on the Water

Rentals come complete with the Sport 11'3" inflatable board, a two-chamber pump and hose, an adjustable paddle, a safety leash and a PFD, so you arrive ready to inflate and launch.

THE FIT

Accessible for a Wide Range of Paddlers

Marketed as an all-ages, beginner-friendly board with enhanced stability and a rider capacity up to 240 lbs, the 11'3" Sport is aimed at people who want a stable, performance-minded rental.

What the day feels like

What paddling the 11'3" Sport feels like

The Sport’s relatively narrow racing-influenced profile combined with a wide 32" deck produces a forward-driving glide while keeping the rider steady; the result is a board that accelerates cleanly and rewards efficient strokes without demanding advanced balancing skills.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this board suits — and who should look elsewhere.

1
Active BeginnersAimed at novice paddlers, the Sport’s width and stability make it a solid introductory performance board that encourages learning while enabling higher speeds than typical recreational boards.
2
All-Age FamiliesDescribed as suitable for all ages, the rental package and included safety gear make it an easy choice for family outings where stability and simplicity matter.
3
Solo Fitness PaddlersPaddlers who want a faster glide for fitness laps or longer outings will appreciate the drawn-out nose and responsive tracking, provided their weight is within the board’s limit.
4
Heavier RidersNot ideal for riders over the stated capacity — the board is rated for riders up to 240 lbs — so heavier paddlers should seek a higher-volume model.
