New for 2015! The 9’6″ Rivershred is the evolution of the proven MCIT platform designed specifically for river running. At 9’6″, 40″ wide and built on a 6″ thick drop stitch platform, the Rivershred was put through extensive testing by the Badfish pro team in Colorado whitewater in order to create the most technically advanced, inflatable river running SUP, ever.

The Rivershred takes successful design characteristics from the MCIT, including the innovative side chamber rails, and improves on them for whitewater paddling. The side chambers stop 3/4″ of the way down the board allowing water to quickly drain off the deck after punching whitewater creating a dry, stable ride. The side chambers allow the board to have superior secondary stability meaning the board is stable on edge crossing currents and coming in and out of eddies. Whitewater rocker was added to the nose and tail and the 6″ drop stitch creates a very stiff ride.

Features:
• Rigid drop stitch deck sits below the rail height, lowering the paddlers center of gravity, resulting in excellent secondary stability crucial for river paddling and superior stability in rough waters
• The I Beam Stiffening System functions like a stringer in a foam blank and significantly increases longitudinal rigidity
• The tough cone bow adds extra impact protection for rocks, docks and other hard surface
• Includes a “flap” pack backpack, high volume pump, an inline pressure gauge, and a color matched rubber patch kit
• Can be easily deflated, rolled up and put into the “flap” pack backpack for easy transport
• Proven high-density drop stitch construction making the Rivershred rigid for better performance
• Ideal for people with limited room to store large boards
• Equipped with glued on rubber side bite fins and a detachable center fin allowing for versatility and options when paddling in deep waters or shallow rivers and lakes
• Also equipped with a bungy system for strapping down whatever you might need for that adventure of a lifetime!
• Inflates to 14-18 PSI

Tucking behind midstream boulders or making quick moves in the middle of rapids, the Rivershred was designed to allow you to be on line in whitewater. This season don’t be driftwood…shred the river!
