The Ultimate Medium All-Around Inflatable Paddle Board. Versatile, sporty, and ready for anything—the Straight Up is built for paddlers who want to cruise anywhere! With a balanced 33” width, this board delivers a smooth, confident ride whether you’re gliding across a lake or tackling a river run.
Designed as a smaller, more agile sibling to the Hoss, the Straight Up is perfect for smaller paddlers or anyone craving effortless maneuverability. Glide smoothly across flatwater while still having the confidence to take on rivers. Its long, gradual rocker profile ensures easy handling in intermediate rapids, while the center race fin keeps you tracking straight on calm waters.
Ready for a new challenge? A quick fin swap instantly transforms it into a river-ready powerhouse.
