Red TenSix

Bringing Colour to the world of SUP, our new SUP lines mean no more bland deck pads and greyscale camo. Two new colours – Horizon and Cali, featuring our new super traction deck pad.

The Red Paddle Co Ten Six is our flagship board. Designed to match the requirements of the all round rider, it will float and glide easily on flat water. It’s the perfect flat water cruiser. It is also designed to ride smoothly and predictably in surf. While some inflatable boards flex uncontrollably in the surf our super stiff double layer construction holds firm and allows you to pick your line across even the smallest of
waves.

Fin placement and rocker lines are the key ingredient that turns our boards from being ordinary into something that you want to ride again and again. The Ten Six comes complete with a carry bag and special Red Paddle Co Ezee pump, which makes inflation to 15-20psi really easy, leaving you more time to paddle.

Why Red?

This is a question we get asked all the time.Almost as though they are trying to catch us out and wait for us to admit that our boards are just standard inflatables.The really good thing is that there is a major difference between us and all the other brands and it doesn’t take us long to explain.

You can pretty much narrow the differences down as far as the boards go to two very important factors:

Internal Construction

All Red Air boards use our Quadruple Rail construction. In an inflatable board there is one massive area of weakness – the rails.This is where the material is joined and this is where you would have problems if you were ever going to get a leak.The Rails on a Red Air are 4 x thicker than any other brand.You could wear through 3 layers and still have an air tight board.All other boards are single layer – it only takes one contact with a sharp edge to rip a hole in a single rail board creating disaster. It isn’t just a case of sticking extra layers on.We place each layer in the right place and join them exactly.

Air Pressure

All Red Air boards can take a lot of air pressure. Most other brands only recommend 15psi (any more than this and the risk of explosion or leaks increases).We have pressure tested our boards to 3 times this pressure.The harder the board the better it performs. Don’t settle for a 15psi max board. Get a Red – The real deal.

The third factor is that we are 100% inflatable.We don’t do anything else.We are specialists and we know more than most about inflatable boards.We are passionate about our brand, the inflatable concept and we use the boards ourselves.There is no comparision.

We are sure that once you try a Red you will love it.The proof is in the paddling.
