The 14' Elite was developed to deliver race-winning speed and efficiency, with the confidence to paddle full-power from startline to finish. Built to perform, it’s truly fast and competitive across all racing disciplines – technical to long-distance and endurance, flat-water to downwinders and surf-racing.
A slender 26" profile and super-narrow tapered nose cuts through the water, enabling rapid acceleration, effortless glide and exceptional tracking. The carefully distributed volume and refined square tail provide reassuring stability without compromising speed, inspiring confident race pace paddling, whatever the water state. The hard-release Speed Tail further reduces drag, making the most of every stroke.
Constructed in Red’s ultra-light MSL®800 double-drop-stitch material, minimising weight and maximising rigidity for efficient power delivery and lightning responsiveness. Plus patented RSS side battens and FFC nose rod enhance stiffness, so you never need to feel disadvantaged against hardboards. Unleash your full potential with the 14' Elite.

Every board comes with an industry-leading bag that’s been engineered just as meticulously as our boards, making it easier to explore your world.

Built to last via our quality-assured Tec-Air process, we’re confident your board will withstand the rigours of time. In testing, we’ve run a 22-tonne digger over one of our boards – and it was fine!

Wow this is a great board. I have the 14ft Sport + and wanted to go narrower to challenge myself. The Elite is one very nippy board. Beat my BP for 5km 2 days after the board arrived, and first time of trying. It is a bit tippier than the Sport, but not uncomfortably so.

Better than expected n great service
This is my third board from RED. The first was a sport 11.3*32 board, then there was a 13.2*30 voyager which I consider to be the best board in the touring class (at least before it was single fin.)
While sailing Voyager, I still wanted a 14 foot board from the racing class. I wanted a width of at least 26 inches, since all that is already purely a sport. And at 26-27 you can participate in races and go to marathons and just ride, even with a child on board.
I can only say the best in terms of build quality and driving performance. The board is very fast and yet very stable, allowing you to paddle with confidence both in calm water and in waves. For my time on the distance, 15 km, that I passed on the voyager, I brought 25 minutes.
The fin holds its course well and, no less important, almost does not cling to grass and debris.
What did not like on the board.
1. Not the most convenient cargo location in the bow, it is very small and close to the bow. I had to glue two rings closer to the center and the cargo became more convenient.
2. For me, it turned out that the handles for carrying the board and the sports start from the shore were not conveniently located. On the previous version of this board, the position of the handles was more convenient.
As a result, I will redo the handles as on the old version.

I’ve never owned a race board before - I surf and have a touring paddle board but this was my first foray into anything with sustained speed and WOW! I can’t describe the feeling of this board’s glide other than to say that it just goes from the first paddle stroke. I’m thrilled to start taking this board on linger and longer treks considering the speed with which I can cover more water.
The experience from purchase to receipt to paddling has been unmatched with Red Paddle Co. Thank you for doing what you do!

This is my 3rd Red paddle board but my first experience on an inflatable race board. I couldn’t wait to get out on it and it didn’t disappoint. It is quick to inflate with the triple action pump to get out on the water, and then packed easily and neatly back into the wheelie bag once I’d finally exhausted myself out. The paddle is lightweight and I found it great to use and I especially love the fact that the fin comes with its own case to protect it once inside the bag. But the experience of being on the water was just amazing - it felt solid and sturdy but so quick to glide across the water once I found my stance and began to paddle. It’s even made me confident enough to join my local race club to improve my technique and I’m sure I’ll be entering SUP races soon on it!
