At Hobie we strive for the best overall strength to weight ratio utilizing our dierent

construction methods to fulﬁll current SUP demands. Our constructions are designed

to ﬁt a variety of styles of SUP paddling and budgets.

Molding our boards is very important to Hobie as it guarantees that the shapes and

designs are replicas of our master shapes. Each molded design has been paired with

the construction we feel the board is best suited for with our eyes always focused in on

Strength, Weight, Price and most important Performance.

Below is our S-W-PR scale that will help you ﬁnd the board and construction that best

meets your needs. All of our boards are very strong and light— most are not over 30

lbs. All ﬁn boxes, handles, hold downs and leash plugs are installed into high density

foam for extra strength in all of our molded boards. In all SUP manufacturing there are

big variations of strength, weight, price and performance.
