I have an inflatable sup, size 10'10"x30"x6" and some good features are its light weight, about 20-lbs, its center recessed handle making it easy to carry, and since it is inflatable it can be moved in and about a very nice boat without too much concern for doing damage to the expensive boat interior as compared to the same 30-lb light weight, more rigid fiberglass sup. However, the rigid sup will out perform the inflated sup for balance, speed, and ease of use ….. despite what anyone claims …. and inflatables need to be re-pumped after a week or two due to air loss.

So, how much does this 17' x 5', Red Paddle XL Ride weigh? Does it weigh 95-lbs?

Red Paddle is known for making very high quality products and some rental sup businesses use Red Paddle for its quality and durability.

Maybe it could be a fun item for use on the big barge bar & grill, The Dive, as a customer taxi going barge to boat to barge, or as a water toy, tow behind on the end of a tow line during that long ride away from West Alton sandbar with up to eight riders balanced on The Ride from The Dive.

Sounds like fun ….. The Ride from The Dive for up to eight …… balanced standing or kneeling ….. good one for the road! If they get a gigundic mega-monster inflable sup ……. I am so totally there! …… and I am like an almost total non-drinker ……. does The Ride offer free courtesy drinking water …… are you kidding?

No great white sharks in Lake Winnipesaukee!
