NEW! BLACKFIN MODEL X (2024)

All pre-orders will ship as a package once your BLACKFIN paddle board is available. If you would like to receive any in stock accessories or other products before your board, please place a separate order. Otherwise, any other items in your cart will ship when your BLACKFIN paddle board is available for shipping.

For 2024, we wanted to present an entirely new lineup of colors and graphics inspired by the waterways we paddle and the creatures we meet along the way. You’ll note ocean-inspired graphics as well as fresh and vibrant new colors, all while staying true to the beloved BLACKFIN look our customers love.

The BLACKFIN premium line is hard to compete with - unparalleled stability, competitive speed, and highest weight capacity you can ask for (up to 485lbs). Excellent choice for heavier riders or for those who want to bring additional cargo for camping or fishing. The premium construction makes the board not only more durable and rigid but also easier to paddle. All BLACKFIN boards glide beautifully on the water, providing comfort while maintaining a firm and stable paddle board experience.

The BLACKFIN Model X favors stability over speed! This board is built to give additional stability and deck space for those wanting to fish off their SUP or bring additional cargo and gear. It’s premium quality and added carbon rail gives confidence of durability and rigidity for those adventuring on the water all day long, while providing a smooth ride for those with more experience. This 35”/90cm wide and 10’6”/3.2m long SUP is built to bring an additional person on board, a dog and/or camping gear. It also delivers the level of maneuverability and speed that any paddle boarder will be impressed with. This board is equipped with multiple actions mounts as well as fishing rack mounts that are exclusive to the BLACKFIN Model X, XL, V and BLACKFIN XL ULTRA™.

Best suited for those wanting to go the extra mile with a premium paddle board and for those geared for the outdoors. The owner of a BLACKFIN X is one who is ready to bring gear for fishing, camping, snorkeling, and all-day adventures.

These paddle boards offer the same premium options and feel for the outdoor enthusiast who wants to bring along gear for fishing, camping, snorkeling, yoga, exercise; however, we recommend that if you are 5’7” or taller that you select the XL. The BLACKFIN XL also provides a higher weight capacity of 485lbs/220kg and is 34”/86cm wide and 11’6”/3.5m long as opposed to the BLACKFIN X with a 450lbs/204kg weight capacity at 35”/90cm wide and 10’6”/3.2m long. The BLACKFIN XL also allows for two Kayak Conversion Kits to be used at the same time. BLACKFIN is designed to take you the extra mile with premium quality and durability that can handle any adventure.

The all-new 2023 BLACKFIN models not only include highly durable triple layer PVC construction and added carbon rail but also a larger overlap seam, superior glue and a high density drop stitch responsible for stiffness and rigidity making the 2023 BLACKFIN our most premium boards yet.

No, your board’s weight capacity remains the same. We tested the optimal air capacity and determined that 14-16 PSI is ideal. This is also the PSI we recommend during hot summer weather.

Blackfin was founded by Steve Elder and David Erwin in Jacksonville, Florida in 2013.

Blackfin is a premium range of iSUPs owned by the company iRocker.

Why are some paddle boards so cheap? ›

Cheap inflatable SUPs only have one PVC layer. Although they're lightweight and easy to carry, their rigidity is not impressive and, as you can imagine, they aren't durable. Expensive iSUPs usually have two or more layers of high-quality PVC. They are much more rigid and even feel like solid boards once fully inflated.

How do I know if my paddle board is good? ›

A SUP board must work for your size. If the board doesn't displace the correct amount of water for your weight, you won't be supported well and the board may feel unstable. Board volume and weight capacity are two factors that affect how stable you will feel and how well the board will travel through the water.
