Buyers Guide to Paddle Board Paddles

A good quality paddleboard paddle is a really important asset to the paddleboarding experience. Premium packages will offer fibreglass paddles within their package and the more expensive the package the more premium the paddle will be with choices going right up to full carbon paddle with anti-twist joints.

You can upgrade your paddle within the cart, this is especially useful for riders that are shorter or taller or paddle boarders wanting a very specific paddle for specific use like SUP surfing or longer distance touring, as ideally paddles for surfing need to be stronger, especially if the rider is taller and heavy and touring paddles ideally need to be very very light and full carbon.

Brands like Red Paddle Co, Starboard and Fanatic are starting to more easily allow the customer to upgrade their paddles to any paddle brand of choice by removing their branded package paddle from their packages. At SUP inflatables we have always offered package upgrades but brands taking the paddle out of the package together does make choosing a premium paddle for your exact needs much easier, especially if the rider, for example, already owns a premium paddle or looking for upgrade options outside the paddle board brand package.
