Red Paddle Co 12' COMPACT Inflatable Paddle Board

Big performance in a tiny package – the 11'0" Compact inflatable paddleboard is a condensed all-round mini-tourer. Inspired by our Sport range, this board is a game-changer for paddlers looking for crossover versatility with ultimate convenience and portability.

The 11'0" Compact’s narrow nose profile smoothly cuts through the water, while its 32" width offers ample stability for a variety of conditions. With 259L of volume providing generous weight capacity, it’s an exceptionally capable mini-tourer. Yet it’s also a sturdy, fast, manoeuvrable all-rounder – ideal for exploring and discovering new paddling locations.

What truly sets this board apart is our exclusive MSL® PACT™ material. This high-density drop-stitch construction combined with quad stringers provides optimum stiffness and durability while enabling the board to fold in half before being rolled up, cutting its packed size in half.

A five-piece adjustable carbon paddle, innovative Click Fins and Titan II pump all come complete in our smallest 75L Compact Backpack too.

Benefits:

• Space-saving: revolutionary PACT™ technology provides the smallest possible pack-down, perfect for travel or storage.
• Adventure-ready: best-in-class stiffness and performance in an ultra-portable package.
• Stable: generous 32" width offers stability and confidence, even in choppier waters. Crossover performance: longboard glide, shortboard manoeuvrability.
• Robust: super-tough MSL® construction, guaranteed with a 5-year warranty.
• High-spec: click-fit twin-fins, adjustable cargo system, soft-grip handle, accessory mount and super-grippy embossed EVA deckpad.
• Complete package: includes five-piece paddle, Titan II pump, leash, repair kit and phone case – all in our smallest 75L Compact Backpack.

COMPACT BACKPACK

Probably the world’s most painstakingly designed paddleboard bag, the Compact Backpack halves the downforce applied to the lower back so you can comfortably carry it for longer. It’s been meticulously engineered to offer unrivalled adjustability and comfort, plus incredible shoulder and back support. 

Opening fully for easy packing, it’s built for functionality too – featuring reflective safety trim, brushed cotton cushioning, internal paddle storage, external water bottle pockets, and optional compression straps for a tighter fit.

TITAN II SUP PUMP

The Titan II Pump is the world's first purpose-built, double chamber SUP pump. It's designed to cut the amount of time and effort it takes to inflate your board by half. Constant innovation has led to us testing the absolute boundaries of inflation technology and as such, we're confident that there's nothing quite like the Titan II pump on the market.

The Dual Cylinder system, combined with the Hi Flo handle means you are in complete control of the energy used to inflate your board. It puts the volume into your board faster and reduces the effort required to reach a higher pressure.

5-PIECE PADDLE

Our Compact 5-Piece paddle packs down neatly and conveniently without sacrificing performance. A light, stiff carbon shaft provides rigidity while a robust, eco-friendly pure nylon blade with laser-etched graphics offers long-term durability. 

The paddle is fully adjustable and uses our new anti-twist adjustment system with 45° cut push-pin fitting for a solid assembly.

TWIN CLICK FINS

Every board in our Compact range comes with two removable Click Fins. These durable plastic fins use a simple click-fit system with a secondary screw for added security. 

The two offset finboxes are also compatible with FCS fittings, so you can alter the feel of your board by using different fins.

COILED LEASH

Our Coiled SUP Leash is made for all flat-water paddlers and racers. When paddling it sits on the board to minimise drag, so it won’t catch on anything in the water. 

The 7mm dual cord leash features double pivot points to reduce twisting, attached via a comfortable neoprene ankle cuff with a quick-release Velcro closure and built-in key pouch. Supplied with a rope loop for securing the rail saver to a D-ring or any other leash point.

SUSTAINABILITY

At Red, sustainability isn’t just marketing hype – it’s at the core of what we do. As a certified B Corp (www.bcorporation.net) we champion high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. 

Fundamentally, our boards are designed and built to last. Our quality-assured Tec Air process has an extremely low warranty rate below 0.5%. Maximizing longevity minimizes our impact on the planet.

Yet even a durable Red kit will eventually reach end-of-life, hence our ‘design for disassembly’ approach. For example, all Titan pump components are replaceable, while using 100% recoverable virgin plastic in our fins, fin boxes, and RSS battens ensures they’re fully recyclable. 

Our manufacturing processes, like turning the offcuts from our EVA deckpads into keyrings, aim for zero waste too, reflecting our commitment to low-impact resource selection. 

CARE - How to store your board 

Before storing, rinse all equipment in fresh water and let it dry completely. 

To pack away, lay the deflated board deck-up and place the pump across the nose, leaving enough room to wrap the board over. Roll tightly, then secure with the strap. Use the backpack’s internal strap to secure the board inside. 

Store your board in a cool, dry place, out of direct sunlight. If keeping it rolled up, avoid excess pressure on the straps. If space allows, it’s best to store the pump separately. 

You can also leave your board inflated, ideally kept on a flat surface or upright – but do reduce the board’s pressure to below 15psi if not in use for a while.

MATERIAL 

What is MSL®? Safe. Stiff. Durable. 

Monocoque Structural Laminate or MSL® is the world’s leading drop-stitch material. Exclusive to Red Paddle Co boards, it’s made to our exact specifications. 

Monocoque: meaning the coating is integral to the structure. MSL® drop-stitch technology integrates a highly durable, reinforced coating to the ultra-high-definition weave to form an inseparable base layer. 

Structural: the high-tensile drop-stitch fibers are designed to withstand pressures in excess of 22psi, meaning Red boards can be inflated to provide unrivaled stiffness and confidence, no matter the rider weight or prevailing conditions. 

Laminate: the reinforced composite coating is bonded to the textile core using machine welding that applies heat and pressure to the inner PVC layer, saving over 2kg of adhesives and reducing cosmetic and safety concerns. Produced under low tension, this process creates a torsional stiffening effect when the boards are inflated, making MSL® stiffer at lower pressures.
