10 Reasons You SHOULD Buy a SUP for your Family

If you've gone through inflatable or hard SUPs that just don't deliver in performance and durability, it may be time to check out a Hala Paddleboard.

Many reviewers agree that the durable construction is virtually unmatched in the SUP department.

I can say with certainty that Hala boards are built to last. Our team spent 3 days scraping rocks, dragging the boards over downed trees and I had the pleasure of slamming into boulders with no noticeable damage to the boards. –Andrew M.

If you enjoy spending time on the water with your family, whether on beach trips or camping excursions, AND you want performance from your SUP, consider a Hala board. A Hala paddleboard doesn't come cheap, but its high-quality construction and clean, simple, and durable design will be sure to impress.

Here are our top ten reasons why you should buy a SUP for your family

1. Our Boards are Built to Last

Our boards are constructed for the long haul. They will last for YEARS compared to other brands.

Think of your Hala board as something you can pass down between family members.

2. Our Boards Can Handle Any Water Condition

We construct our boards with welded seams. This means that our boards are built insanely tough and are durable. Hala SUPs can keep up with any demands you throw its way and handle any water condition, even the choppiest of waves and rockiest of creeks.


3. Our Boards are Dog Friendly

Have no fear! You can certainly bring your dog on our inflatable paddleboards. Our deckpads are burly and can handle your pet's nails without puncturing the board. Plus, the EVA material is cushy and will feel really nice on your pup's paws.

8. We Designed a Ton of Little Extras and Features that Matter

We take our SUP designs seriously, and thought through every inch of every board. We wanted to make every extra and feature to be realistic and useful. No flair for the sake of flair! 

Some of our intentional designs include the step-flat handle, centralized rigging for ideal weight distribution, and a foot index on every board so that barefoot paddlers can know where they're stepping back on the board without having to look down!

Eighteen boards seems like a huge lineup...but then you realize that there really is a board for everyone.
