Why We Like The Red Paddle Co Compact MSL Pact 12ft Inflatable Stand-Up Paddleboard
Experience the convenience and portability of the Red Paddle Co Compact MSL Pact 12ft Inflatable Stand-Up Paddleboard. Designed for touring, this SUP offers smooth and speedy trips on lakes and oceans.
Red Paddle Co has gone above and beyond to create a truly transportable paddleboard package. Despite being the longest board in the lineup, the entire package—board, pump, paddle, fins, and leash—can be easily packed into a standard-sized backpack. This makes it incredibly convenient for beach trips or excursions down the shore.
At 12 feet long, this paddleboard features a slim and long profile, making it perfect for fast forward momentum. Its stability allows you to confidently maintain speed. The length also provides ample space for storing equipment during long on-water outings, and the bungee straps on the deck keep everything secure. The EVA deck pad offers reliable traction for standing and can be split to neatly fold and roll the board once deflated.
