Directly addressing performance, especially while racing or touring, the Fishbone is designed like many hardboard racing SUPs in the fact that they are typically 12+ feet long and feature a sleek shape. Additionally, most in this category have a displacement hull shape which helps to displace the water; enhancing tracking (the ability to hold a straight line) and speed. Unlike any other inflatable SUP, the Fishbone features a patented displacement hull shaped nose cap which maintains contact with the water at all times, cutting through the water and distributing it out to the sides of the board, rather than planing across the surface of the water. For flatwater touring and racing, displacement hulls are far more efficient than planing hulls because they deliver higher speeds with the same level of user output. In-line with this, the Fishbone’s displacement hull nose cap truly provides an inflatable SUP that efficiently uses a user's paddling power while out touring or racing.
