ZEN CONSTRUCTION

Linear dropstitch. Linear alignment of space yarns, oriented only in warp direction ( the direction of the board’s length), maximizing the stiffness and response. Linear dropstich also secures the board’s shape better over time compared to standard knitted dropstitch. Linear dropstich with single layer coating is the lightest offering in our collection. What does it mean for you? An ultra light board with the best stiffness that single layer technology can offer, you can feel the acceleration.

Heat welded rail. Welding technology turns 2 pieces of material into a single solid unit, resulting in an extra-strong mechanical bond. A mechanical bond is stronger, lasts longer and is better for the environment. Welding creates a complete airtight seam without the risk of glue weakening over time.

2000D galvanized rails. Galvanized 2000 D rails increase the strength and stiffness of the board.

PACKAGE

Lightweight leash. At only 70g, the leash is incredibly light. Soft cushioning means it will flatten when stood on. Easy to attach to the leash ring without needing any excess rope loop.

V8 double action pump. The hand pump with fixed base completes the picture of the price friendly inflatable paddle board. Works both in single and double action. Can be used to inflate and deflate the board.

RE-COVER bag. Is designed to minimize weight, yet maximize comfort and strength. Roller wheels available on every bag make it more comfortable for a long walk. Hiking strap is ergonomically curved to ensure good stability on the shoulders.
