All-Round / Flat-Water / Touring / Race If you want a fast all around fitness/race board that has a bit more width for added stability then the X-12 is your board. Stability means you can paddle further with less fatigue. Stability is also the key to SIC boards winning pedigree as founder/shaper Mark Raaphorst’s design philosophy is: You are fastest when standing on your board rather than lying in the water next to it. The wave piercing bow and dual zone rocker offer low drag in “displacement mode” while in calm waters and is stable when in “planing mode” in choppier, off wind conditions. Sharp rails at the tail shear water to maximize speed.

All-Around / Flat-Water / Race / Touring SIC has taken feedback from some of the best paddlers in the world and molded it into the X-Pro Series boards. If you paddle in glassy lakes or sheltered bays, then this electrifying board will be stable enough for most advanced paddlers who have good balance. Keep in mind that conditions are rarely flat, smooth or glassy, especially in a race or if you are trailing the pack. Elite paddlers have exceptional balance and can handle narrower boards in an effort to maximize their turning agility, acceleration and top-end speed. The SIC team is no exception and they have been winning races around the globe on these boards. Grab yourself a board and paddle like a pro. You will then understand a part of their secret.

The idea with the Ride family has always been to make stand–up paddleboarding as accessible as possible – anyone can have a go. . The XL ride is a different take on the idea. Now everyone can have a go – at the same time. At 17’0 long and 60″ wide, the Ride XL is designed to carry not one, but a group of riders (and the dog, too). It’s fun, sociable and great exercise, and we’re already seeing people racing it. Technically, the XL ride is an extension of its sister Ride boards. It has a wide deck and tail so it’s nice and stable, even when you have eight people on it. And it has multiple valves so a group of people can inflate it at the same time, and multiple grab handles so they can carry it together. MSL fusion composite and airtight coating, MSL involves fusing a second layer of hard-wearing polymer to the dropstitch core at the raw material stage, removing hand gluing errors. The high-tech industrial process also saves almost 2kg in weight and makes the boards stiffer at lower pressures. For 2017, we’ve added a special screw...

Sharing basically the same dimensions of the X-12 SCC/TWC composite boards, this touring / fitness / race board is perfect for family fun, fitness and for competing in the 12’6” inflatable race class. The X-12.6 Air-Glide is the stiffest board in its class at 15 psi. While this board is a great recreational fun, we are also confident that it is also one of the fastest race board in its class. The low drag fin make this board fast or with the U.S. finbox, which is standard on all SIC Air-Glide inflatables, you can put any fin on you like.

Show up, pump up, keep up. Introducing the fastest, lightest and stiffest inflatable raceboard on the market. Crafted from the same pedigree as it’s SCC brother, the all- new Air Glide X-12.6 Pro Lite features water shearing lines, a low profile displacement hull design and race handles for beach starts and finishes. Dyneema Stringer Technol- ogy provides unparalleled rigidity though the bow and center lines of the board. This board will be a frequent face on the podium of the inflatable class in 2016.

When Lina Augaitis & Georges Cronsteadt asked for the fastest board possible for races that are in protected waters like the Abu Dhabi and Lost Mills races, Mark designed the X-12 PRO-LITE. This board is for the most elite, lighter weight male and female paddlers and for serious youth paddlers who want the winning edge. Because the board is 24.6”/62.5cm narrow, the bottom cross sections were redesigned so side-to-side stability was maintained to the fullest. Both tail rocker and deck drainage were opti- mized. The board comes stock with the EZ-Grab handle and removable race handle for beach starts. The X-12 PRO-LITE is a hyper fast and agile, pure flat-water racing board.

Like the X-12 Pro, the X-14 is built for speed over stability. Whether racing in the Elite 14-foot or unlimited class, course or distance racing, the X-14 is best in class. The X-14 PRO’s progressive waterline provides a lively feel, which leads to quicker acceleration getting on glide faster and staying on glide longer. The narrower shape makes for a faster, more agile, pure race board for the Elite racer.

This board is 24.0”/61.0cm wide. The additional length gives the X-14’ PRO-LITE a sleeker outline while preserving stability. The 14’ PRO-LITE gives racers like Lina Augaitis, Georges Cronsteadt and Sonni Honscheid unmatched acceleration, unrivaled top end speed and maximum glide. Augaitis became the fastest women paddler on earth at the 2014 Lost Mills contest in Germany. The bottom cross sections allow the racer to get up to top speed quicker and stay at your top speed longer with less effort. The piercing bow design and missile like outline mean the board will continue to accelerate the harder you stroke. The new X-14’ PRO-LITE is designed to put Elite racer ahead of the pack and on top of the podium.

The X Jacket is the perfect SUP companion for wind, spray and sun protection. Made with a 4-way stretch nylon the X Jacket moves easily with each paddle stroke. The jacket features a DWR coating and a UPF 50+ protection rating. It easily packs inside an integrated fanny pack and can be worn around the waist with an adjustable belt so paddlers can always have it on hand. Celebrate the bikinis and surf trunks everyday you can! Bring the X Jacket for sun and wind protection just in case.

River calm or choppy sea, the Xipe 60N is the perfect fit for touring without tiring. Its high cut slim line design, adjustable shoulders and concealed waist belt together ensure a great fit with excellent arm mobility. With a built-in hydration pack pocket, it’s a comfortable, practical solution for every day paddling.

The one-piece XPR racing paddle is strong and light. The FLEX TIP carbon/Kevlar blade whips a bit of extra kick into every stroke. The 8.5" blade width provides plenty of power surface and the extra thin diamond tip blade provides super clean entry on every stroke. This paddle is geared for racing, especially on our V or Switchblade.

Like the X-12 Pro, the X-14 is built for speed over stability.

With feedback from some of the most elite flat-water paddlers, SIC built the X-12 and X-14 Pro series boards.

A scaled-up version of the X-12, this fast, stable, fitness/race board is race ready or good to go on your coastal excursion. This 14-foot beauty offers great volume for added stability and larger paddlers.

With its wave-piercing bow and a quick transition to flat, this Stock Class board has a great glide in displacement mode while in calm waters and is stable when in planingmodein choppier conditions.
