Body Glove Performer 11 ISUP Review

The Body Glove Performer inflatable stand up paddle board has a unique and interesting shape and design. It is fairly wide at the centre but tapers dramatically at the nose. The 34” centre width provides a nice stable platform to stand on and the tapered nose helps this board to cut nicely through the water. […]

Have you been stand-up paddling for a while and would like a board that offers more speed, more thrill and more of a challenge? The Needlenose 126 Racer does just that. This board is so much fun but it is definitely not for a beginner. It is a racing board designed specifically for speed and […]
