THE HARD FACTS ABOUT PADDLE BOARDING

R-small

 The truth about stand up paddle boarding. From the book of Ripple (10:3)…


  1. All Ripple Boards are hand made.
  1. Ripple Boards are built to last. Our fiberglass SUP boards are sealed in 3 layers of fiberglass (many other brands only have 2). They also have extra reinforcement along the rails and come with an inbuilt automatic air vent that helps to prevent heat damage if you leave your board on the beach.
  1. Our inflatable boards are practically indestructible. They inflate to be rock hard and will survive a car being driven over them, while inflated! Can be inflated up to 20psi.
  1. Our inflatable boards come with a collapsible paddle, pump, leash rope, repair kit, and carry bag (back pack). They inflate in well under 2 minutes.
  1. Our boards are portable and easy to use. All our fiberglass boards have an inbuilt carry handle and are lightweight. Our inflatable boards fold into a backpack.
  1. We can customise boards to your specific needs. All of our fiberglass boards can be individualized. If you get a Ripple Surf SUP, the paint job is fully customizable. And if you get a Ripple Custom SUP, we’ll shape and finish it exactly how you want it, fully bespoke! Head to our Surf SUP and Custom pages to see these options.
  1. We’re 100% Australian. If you need us, just give us a call, day or night, we’re here to help.
  1. Ripple Boards look pretty cool (let’s be honest…). Many other SUP boards on the market look alike, and unfortunately for our beaches, that’s not always in a good way. Ripple boards are different.
  1. Ripple Boards make choosing the right SUP easy. Want to tone up and lose weight? Want to ride waves? Want a SUP board that fits in your back pack? Easy, just go to our board comparison chart and see what each of our products is designed for.
  1. Our boards have been specifically designed for your paddling pleasure. Enjoy them, embrace them, love them.

And here’s a few other Ripple Board “facts”, just for a laugh…

 

  1. Ripple Boards are the envy of the SUP world. You’re basically paddling on a skinny hipster in tight jeans, party shirt and a beard. They’re that cool.
  2. People have been known to paddle out to sea and refuse to come back ashore, because their Ripple Board is so awesome. Grandpa, please come home soon…
  3. Ripple Boards are actually Transformers that convert into eskies of ice cold beers.
  4. If your Ripple Board won’t fit on the roof of your car then you’re probably driving a bike.
