Red Equipment has done it again! With unwavering dedication to excellence, innovation, and cutting-edge design, this remarkable brand has consistently remained at the forefront of the industry since their early beginnings. Constantly striving to enhance their products and improve user experiences, Red Equipment is thrilled to announce the highly anticipated launch of their revolutionary new 11’6 RIDE board, which promises to elevate performance and set new standards in water sports. Get ready to experience unmatched quality and exhilaration on the water!
Designed for larger riders seeking to enhance their confidence, find their footing, or simply unwind, the 11’6” Ride combines the exceptional performance of their award-winning Ride series with the touring features of the Sport collection.
Drawing on years of shaping expertise, this super-stable board offers excellent rigidity, volume, and glide. At 4.7 inches thick, it sits lower in the water, making it easier to re-board while also lowering the rider’s center of gravity for improved confidence and control.
The extended width in both the tail and nose boosts volume, giving the 11’6” a wider feel than a standard 33” board, which enhances stability and facilitates longer paddling with better glide. Equipped with their patented RSS stiffening technology, MSL800 material, a US center fin, and numerous connection and stowage points, the 11’6” Ride is a high-volume board crafted for adventure.
