Rolling SUP Quiver Racks

We've just designed and built the best SUP quiver racks that we've seen...expert, quality American welding, they are mobile, rolling casters with brakes, and they also break down flat for storing and shipping...assembly time is less than five minutes...

Foam board pads should arrive today, that will finish off the bars in the pics above...

We are selling the 9 board rack for $850...6 board rack is $700 (Made in the USA) and there is already a waiting list...

We have several containers of shiny new boards on the way this month that will fill them up and then some...

Speaking of new boards...Exocet, one of our favorite sailboard companies...is introducing the first of their SUP offerings...

The Kona S.U.P. is our latest contribution to the Stand Up Paddle market, offering not only excellent gliding characteristics but also outstanding wave performance thanks to the 'step tail'.

The Kona step tail design is not just another fashion gadget, but a technical feature adding obvious advantages due to the extended water line in displacement mode, as well as the reduced wetted surface as soon as the board is on a plane.

The natural standing position is in the center of the board and due to the step tail, it remains the same even when you catch a wave and accelerate.

A unique quality making it way easier to learn paddling in the waves.

Freestanding SUP Racks

When the head of our shipping department (local SUP ripper, Brian Bowie) mentioned that his son Josh is a pretty good welder...we tasked him to weld up some new freestanding (or wall boltable) SUP display racks for the shop...

These racks will be commercially available soon...there is already a waiting list...almost everyone that's seen them wants a set for their board quivers...

Josh makes some pretty wicked beach cruisers...
