Description
The Archer is the product of years of experience in SUP manufacturing, all culminating into this fantastic range of inflatable SUPs, brand new for 2020. At 33” inches wide they are a relatively progressive design but will still work well for an entry-level paddler with good balance who is looking to improve quickly, or an intermediate paddler who wants to test their limits.
The build is lightweight, utilising a combination of our DWF (double wall fabric) and twin PVC stiffening strips on the top and bottom. The stiffening strips mean the Archer can maintain the rigidity and tensile strength of a double layer board but still be incredibly light. The result is an easy-to-transport, agile board with a high performance feel that will inspire confidence in choppier waters thanks to its strength. If you’re riding waves, open ocean swells or white-water rivers, these stylish boards will feel right at home.
The Archer Allround 10’6″
This 10’6” x 33” x 4.75” model will suit small-to-medium adults looking for a board that is capable of handling all conditions with confidence. The 10’6” length is considered medium for a SUP so will provide a great balance of straight-line speed and manoeuvrability while the 33” width promotes agility. The 4.75” thick deck offers a stable base and low centre of gravity for riders within the weight range and will make catching waves simple.
All of these characteristics mean the Archer 10’6” is capable of performing in any conditions from flat water distance paddling to white water fun and surfing.
Performance
Aluminium Paddle
Our aluminium paddle that comes supplied with this package does the basics and it does them well with the reassurance of ultimate durability. This paddle has been designed to deal with all the bumps, scrapes and drops you or your kids may put it through when learning how to stand-up paddleboard. It features a painted aluminium shaft and a contoured P.U blade, both of which are tough, effective and easy to handle. The quick release clasp makes it easily adjustable so you can set the correct height for whoever is paddling and the shaft can also be broken down into two pieces to make transportation easy.
