Why We Like The Ride XL Inflatable Stand-Up Paddleboard
Red Paddle's original Ride is already one of our favorites, so Red Paddle made the Ride XL Inflatable Stand-Up Paddleboard large enough for everyone to use. It's 17-feet long and 60-inches wide so up to eight people can use it comfortably, and even a few pets. EVA padding provides a solid grip underfoot, and there are various handles and pump valves for everyone to chip in with pumping and hauling.
