Welcome To The Future - Meet Red’s New Inflatable Paddle Board Range

Written by Luke Green /

Taking everything we’ve learned from years of manufacturing our best-in-class Red Paddle Co boards, the Future Series combines the needs of both beginners and specialised paddlers in one high-performance range. 

Made using lighter, stiffer materials, the Future Series has been created to get the very most out of every session whether beginner or seasoned paddler - lighter to carry, easier to pack, increased speed, reduced fatigue. 

Every inflatable paddle board in the Future Series is designed to offer performance without compromise or confusion. Here’s what the future has in store. 

10 Boards, 6 New Shapes

The Future Series includes 10 boards in total, with 6 different shapes tailored to all of the paddleboarding goals you might want to tackle - both now and, you’ve guessed it, in the future.

To refine our expertise into just 10 boards, we took everything we’ve learned about what you love most about your original Red paddle board and pushed the boundaries of innovation even further. The resulting range can be broken down into three distinct categories, capturing all types of SUP enthusiasts from holiday paddlers or advanced adventurers. 

The Freeride range offers the perfect balance of stability and portability for those seeking all-round versatility, while the Touring range - featuring some familiar-looking Sport and Voyager boards - is purpose-built for those chasing longer distances or upgrading their inflatable paddle board. For specialists, our Specialist range delivers unparalleled precision and agility in white water or on race day. 

Lighter But More Durable Than Ever

When it comes to construction, the Future Series represents another leap forward for our board technology. Each SUP is crafted using our exclusive MSL 800 technology (or MSL 1000 technology, in the case of the Compact boards in the Freeride range), a double-drop-stitch construction that redefines what’s possible for inflatable paddle boards. Lighter, stiffer, and yet thinner than ever before, MSL 800 ensures every board in the range offers exceptional ride quality and durability.

This industry-leading technology - found only in a Red paddle board - is nothing less than a game changer. Not only does it guarantee a longer-lasting board, but it also ensures a more efficient and enjoyable time on the water. No matter where you paddle, you’ll feel the difference in every stroke.

Removable Fin-Box

Our commitment to refining our board technology proves that innovation is at the heart of what we do, and other aspects of the Future Series highlight that MSL is no exception. Among the standout features is the removable fin-box, available exclusively on the 14’0 Voyager within the Touring range.

This patented technology is as practical as it is revolutionary. Designed specifically for the 14’0 Voyager - this unique innovation allows you to effortlessly change your fin set up depending on your preference and the expedition. Go single fin for increased agility or twin for improved loading and tracking. The fin-box is not only removable but also packable and repairable, allowing you to replace or set up your fin with ease. Its helical design delivers ultimate strength and a rock-solid connection.

Eco-Conscious Paddling

As a proud B Corp, sustainability was a serious consideration throughout every step of creating this new range. The Future Series reflects our desire to create positive change, as every board in the range is designed with minimal waste in mind thanks to a streamlined, colour-coded approach for efficiency and simplicity.

While the boards themselves stand out, there are certain practices they conform to like our commitment to using packaging free of single-use plastic and dedication to the values of the circular economy. We’re proud that this range of boards allows you to choose kit which aligns both with a desire for high performance and for a better future for the planet.
