Through extensive prototyping and testing, we created the highest-performing and most durable Whitewater River SUP ever made: The Atcha 96. Our Most popular board, the 96, provides stability even in crashing waves and is perfect for navigating whitewater, surfing waves, and sending big drops with confidence.
Features:
- 9’6’’
- Reinforced PVC
- Welded seams
- High River Rocker
- Retractable Fin: For the remainder of 2024, all Atcha 96s now come with our new Stompbox 2.5 upgrade!
Why the Atcha 96?
- High-performance whitewater board
- Stability in waves, eddy lines, and surfs
- StompBox 2 Fin provides speed, precision, and drive
- Run Shallower creeks and rivers with the Stompbox™ 2 technology
Just when I thought this board couldn’t get any better… it did! The changes in the shape have made this board more stable without sacrificing any of the mobility.
The Atcha 711 wants you to jib, surf and weave. It has Stompbox-2-drive, but there's a bit less speed and a bit more spin, splat, ollie, and swerve. [7'11" x 34" x 6"]
The Atcha 86 hits a stability-meets-surf sweet spot. It wants you to stomp, spin, play and drive. [8'6" x 34" x 6"]
The Rado is a faster board that is also less maneuverable because it is longer and narrower. This board also comes with more rigging points, and a travel paddle. It is a great choice if you're paddling rivers that have long sections of flatwater in between rapids or if you are looking for a whitewater-capable expedition board [10'10" X 35" X 6"]

I’m in love with this board! I bought it last year and have been able to spend a full season with it. This thing is like a Ferrari on the water compared to other boards I’ve tried. It turns on a dime and maneuvers like a champ. Initially I found my balance on it to be a little shaky because it handles so differently, but once I got some time in with it, there’s absolutely no turning back! I mainly use it on the Boise River which has some shallow parts… on my previous board with a fixed fin, I would be puckering going through rapids or little drops waiting for my fin to hit and send me Supermanning over the front. The Stomp Box and retractable fin system is an absolute game-changer! I have so much more confidence to hit bigger waves and navigate shallower sections, it’s truly unbelievable how much a difference this thing has made on my paddleboarding experience! Kudos Hala, so glad I pulled the trigger and I can’t wait for more years of adventuring with my Hala Atcha! Pic attached shows just how confident I am on this thing now.. we had a recent Witches in the Water event and I wore a fully inflatable costume with zero issues! ‘Nuff said… if you are trying to improve your skill or challenge yourself on more complex water features, this the board you want!
Thank you so much for your amazing review! We are thrilled to hear that the Atcha 96 has given you such confidence on the water. We designed this board to be a game-changer and it sounds like it has definitely lived up to that for you. We can't wait for you to continue adventuring with it for years to come. Happy paddling!
I learned and grew as a whitewater paddler on the Atcha 9’6. The retractable fin was a game changer from my first board. It provided me with stability and the confidence to keep pushing myself higher. As I have grown I have started playing with the 7’11 as well, but the 9’6 is still my go to board for big water, safety boating and racing.
I'm a whitewater professional, and on the river all year. I love my Hala Atcha because it extends my season for fun on the river! Thanks Hala for making a great product. Scott Welch owner of Kaweah Whitewater Adventures
Hi Scott, thank you for your kind words! We're so glad to hear that your Atcha 96 has played a fun role in your whitewater adventures. Happy paddling! - The Hala team
Can't say enough good things about the rocker. 10 /10!
Thanks for the review, Kelly! Our badass boards would be nothing without badass people like you riding them.
We love this board so much that we have 2! We use it on the river and for a lazy float on the lake. The stomp box is great when the river is shallow and eases initial set up. We love the look of it too!
