Longshore is our inflatable touring stand up paddleboard, optimised for speed and efficiency on longer voyages and multi-day trips in rivers, lakes, canals and the sea.

When the horizon keeps pulling you forward, the Longshore 12'6" is the board that keeps up. Designed for distance, this sleek touring SUP lets you explore more remote stretches, cover miles with ease, and carry everything you need for nights under canvas or stars. Whether it’s the canal path less paddled or a long lake crossing, this board turns quiet ambition into confident adventure.

Go Further, Glide Longer

  • Effortless glide – 12'6" length and narrow profile with 150gk recommended max load to track straight and true, perfect for longer outings

  • Adventure-ready – Includes adjustable paddle, double-action pump, coiled leash, carry bag and repair kit

  • Packable yet solid – Inflatable drop-stitch construction feels rigid on the water but rolls up small for travel

  • High capacity – 150 kg weight limit with front and rear bungees for stowing multi-day kit

Sized for the long haul

At 12'6", this Longshore model is built for touring. The extra length improves straight-line tracking, so you waste less energy correcting your line and more time gliding forward. It's also better at handling small waves and chop, giving a smoother, more stable ride over distance. The narrower 75 cm width keeps it efficient through the water, while still offering enough stability for confident paddlers carrying gear — or even a young passenger along for the ride.

If you’re planning long days on lochs, estuaries, or the open coast — or loading up for a weekend wild camp — this is the board that makes it feel effortless.

Touring, not faffing

The 12'6" Longshore inflates in minutes but gives you hardboard-like stiffness thanks to its robust drop-stitch construction. It’s built to carry gear — or company — and keep tracking efficiently no matter how far you’re heading. The three grab handles make lifting, launching, and portaging easy, whether you’re solo or teamed up.

Load up the front and rear bungees with dry bags, pull the paddle together, and set off with everything you need on board.

“Took mine along the Caledonian Canal with kit strapped on. Stable, smooth, and handled like a dream — even with a headwind on Loch Ness.”

From local stretches to big multi-day trips, the Longshore 12'6" is a solid companion. Like all our inflatable SUPs, it’s backed by our 3-Year Alpine Bond.

Made to last, made to roam

The 12'6" Longshore is built from UV-protected, double-layer PVC with a rigid drop-stitch core and marine-grade fixings. It rinses clean after use, rolls down small for transport, and includes a repair kit for just-in-case moments. Whether you’re a weekend warrior or a paddle-season devotee, it’s designed for the long run.

Paddle Safe

We strongly recommend all customers complete a certified training course and familiarise themselves with the potential risks and safety measures of stand-up paddle boarding before purchasing. Find your nearest BSUPA (British Stand Up Paddle Association) Sup School

Sustainability and Product Care

Care and Repair

Store your paddleboard or canoe away from direct sunlight to maximise its lifespan. After use, rinse with fresh water (especially if you have been paddling in the sea) and allow to dry fully before storage. Though any metal fixings are made from marine grade stainless steel, spraying them with WD-40 can help prevent any corrosion that may occur during prolonged storage. Take care to avoid sharp rocks when launching and do not exceed the maximum payload (max. 140kg) or pressure for your craft (max. 15psi). 

Safety and Access

We recommend you always wear a personal floatation device (PFD) while out on the water. Take time to assess the water conditions before launching including currents, tides, swell, wind direction, temperature and any hazards below the surface. Practice getting back onto your board from the water in a controlled environment close to shore before venturing out on longer trips away from dry land. Many inland waterways require a license to paddle so it's worth looking up the access rules for your chosen spot. In the UK, a Paddle UK membership is good value and offers a combined license for the majority of the navigable rivers, canals and lakes. The above points are all recommendations and we advise you to consult a qualified instructor to make sure you know how to stay safe and maximise you enjoyment while afloat. Happy paddling!
