We try not to overcomplicate the sizing of our SUPs, which is why we offer multiple size brackets for our all-rounder boards. For our more specialist touring & activity SUPs, then we only offer one-size. There’s no exact science to matching a board to your size & weight & there are exceptions to the rule, but as a rule of thumb – then if you’re under 6′ & below 85kg then you should go for a 10'4" or 10’8″. If you’re over 6′ & 85kg – then a 12" is usually ideal. If you want even more length & width, then the 15′ tandem works perfectly as a solo option, as well as taking tandem.

When choosing your SUP, consider your crew. You want to maintain a size of board you can control whilst having enough space for more people or pets to join you. If you regularly want to take your pups or kids along for the ride, then you may want to go for a slightly bigger board than you normally would. Refer to the maximum weights for each board & you’ll be fine. Naturally, some performance & sturdiness will be compromised with extra bodies on board, but our ultra-rigid SUPs will still take the weight, especially the extra sturdy Cruise Carbon boards.
