The Epic River and Expedition SUP. The all-new Hala Rado is built for paddlers who want the best of both worlds—whitewater performance and flatwater versatility. Designed for those who split their time between the river and the lake, the Rado provides serious river performance without sacrificing efficiency or stability on calm water. Perfect for expeditions, this board features ample gear capacity and rigging points on both the front and back to carry everything you need for an adventure.
The updated rocker profile and side cut take the Rado’s performance to the next level, maintaining speed, efficiency, and directional stability in all water conditions. The increased nose rocker enhances downriver performance, allowing you to navigate rapids with ease, while the flatter tail helps maintain speed through features on the river. This tail also improves tracking, compensating for the nose rocker and ensuring a smooth, gliding experience on flat water.
Whether you're charging the river or paddling across a serene lake, the 2025 Hala Rado is ready for everything—combining top-tier whitewater performance with flatwater efficiency for the ultimate adventure experience.

Me and my 80 year old river runner dad paddle our Rados all year. The Rado handles class 2 water with a dog and gear. It was home for 7 days on the Green River. We had starter boards but have never looked back once we got the Rado. Just bought our 3rd one for any tag alongs. Downside, yoga is no longer a challenge on this wider board. Oh well, I love it!

Rado is a great complement board to my Hala Hoss. These boards are reliable and top quality.

Favorite toy of the year. Stompbox 2.0 is a major selling feature. Comes with excellent carry bag, and pump and paddle. Great for floating down the river!
