The new design on the Atcha’s is awesome! Coming from being on a Rivershred the last 4 seasons, this new Hala is lighter, more responsive and more stable as you get near the tail. Looking forward to many more river miles on this craft…Thanks Hala!
Hi Robert - thank you for your review! We're so glad to hear that you love the new Atcha 96! We love it, too! Have fun out there!

The 2025 Atcha is a must have for whitewater SUP enthusiasts! The Hala team updated the rocker, enhanced the shape of the nose, and refreshed the color scheme. The updated rocker accelerates the paddler in the waves providing a feeling of charging through the river. The enhanced nose shape breaks through the waves on the river so the paddler is not thrown forward. The new color scheme looks sharp on the river. Whether you’re looking to upgrade your whitewater board, or add another board to your quiver, the 2025 Atcha is the cat’s meow!
Thanks for the awesome review, Michael! 🙌 We’re so glad you’re loving the updates on the 2025 Atcha — the new rocker and nose shape were dialed in exactly for that feeling of charging hard through whitewater. Your feedback means a ton to our team, and we’re pumped to hear it’s earning a spot in your quiver. See you on the river!

Wow - honestly just wow. The changes made to this year's line up are insane!
Better stability, better tracking, more rocker, more punch and less board stall in waves/holes. Lovely colour scheme - it's like falling in love with sup all over again 🥰
