Naish 2021 iSUP Boards

I-SUP Board Brands
 
This year, Naish have partnered with a new factory and new material suppliers in order to provide heightened quality and durability in their inflatable boards.  The quality control has been set to the strictest in the industry. Every piece of material,
every ounce of glue and every board is meticulously checked to ensure that every Naish inflatable board embodies the quality
you can expect from a brand that has been making boards for 40 years.
     
     
NEW FUSION DROPSTITCH
 Our high-end boards are now built using the industry’s highest standard Fusion material. It is created by fusing a layer of solid polymer to the dropstitch material as it is being made. This allows for a stiffer, more durable material that saves about 2 kg per board while ensuring they are as rigid as possible. *Fusion Dropstitch is used on all Glides, Malikos, the Crossover and the Alana 11’6”
NEW X-WEAVE DROPSTITCH
This year, our single layer boards use a new “X-weave” Dropstitch material. The dropstitch is positioned in an X-pattern, which evenly distributes tension throughout the board and pressure on the skin of the board. This provides the best stiffness-to-weight ratio possible. *X-weave Dropstitch is used on all Nalus, ONEs and the Alana 10’6”
High Pressure Rated
Our boards are constructed in an all new manufacturing facility with superior glues, materials and quality control. This allows our boards to be inflated to a higher PSI (21), for unbelievable stiffness that performs more
like a composite board. Adhering to the highest quality control standards in the industry, every single inflatable board is built to last.
Double Density Pads
Our pads now feature two different textures, with different grooving, so you can instantly feel when you’re standing in the proper paddling area. The main pad is made from our soft, low-rash “crocodile skin”. The stance area is made with a higher grip diamond texture which is oriented to maximize grip along the length of the board and help transfer more of your paddling force into the board. *Double Density Pads are used on Glides, Alana 11’6” and Malikos
US Box
Our inflatables* are now delivered with US fin boxes and enables the use of a stiffer fin. This also grants you the option to customize your fin. All fins are equipped with a tool-less butterfly screw. *ONE and ONE Alana are equipped with the slide-on fin system
Double Carbon Stringers
Our Maliko inflatable race boards feature new double carbon stringers which enhance performance. They are built using the same carbon fiber that you would find in a regular composite board with one key difference. Instead of being infused with resin, they are infused with PU that can then be glued to the board. The carbon construction ensures the top skin has minimal compression or elongation resulting in the most rigid inflatable boards around. The twin stringers also offer a greater advantage over a single, center stringer by strategically placing the reinforcement directly under the rider’s stance area. This reduces any buckling or water resistance that would typically result from bumps formed on the underside of the board without these reinforcements. *These specific double carbon stringers are used on Maliko inflatable boards only.
Double Stringers
The single layer boards are now built with double stringers to increase overall performance. These not only enhance board stiffness, control twist, they also add structural reinforcement under the stance area to reduce buckling (under weight/pressure) and any water resistance resulting from bumps formed along the board bottom.
*Double stringers are used on all Nalus and the Alana 10’6” inflatable.
Double Layer Rails
Naish inflatables are now built with a wide, double PVC layer on the rail. This provides great durability, increased longevity and enhanced stiffness.
Hydroslick Edges
Hydroslick edges reduce wasted energy by creating a clean water release in the tail. This maximizes paddling efficiency, so you move forward faster!
