10.8 Ride

Built for bigger riders, the 10'8" Ride inflatable paddleboard is the largest of Red's genre-defining all-rounder range. Novice, taller, heavier, or less confident paddlers needing solid stability will appreciate the balance this board offers. Great for learning, it's equally suited to choppier waters or carrying a little passenger...

The 34" width and rounded nose provide supreme steadiness, with enough float for riders over 240lbs. Virtually indestructible twin-fins and ultra-durable build make it life-proof and family-friendly too, backed with a 5-year warranty. As inflatable paddleboard pioneers, Red's MSL material comes from over 15 years of development.

This high-density drop-stitch creates a stiffer core, producing much thinner yet ultra-rigid boards that sit low to the water so they're easy to climb back onto. With soft-grip handles, adjustable cargo system and high-traction deckpad, the 10'8" Ride comes complete with everything you need to get started in our All-Terrain Backpack, Titan II pump and choice of paddle.

Max weight: 265lbs

Sustainability

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

Fundamentally, Red's boards are designed and built to last. Their quality-assured Tec-Air process has a negligible warranty rate. Maximum longevity minimises their impact on the planet.

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

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

Care

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 Red's 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 fibres are designed to withstand pressures in excess of 22psi, meaning Red boards can be inflated to provide unrivalled 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.
