The Surftech Laird 12' 1" stand up paddleboard offers stability and performance that makes it ideal for both long-distance trips and surging waves.

  • Besides providing a new way to get on the water, paddleboarding develops core muscles and balance—it's the perfect training activity for surfers, skiers and paddlers
  • Designed by shaping expert Bob Pearson with input from professional surfer Laird Hamilton, this board is perfect for novice stand up paddleboarders and seasoned experts alike
  • 12 ft. 1 in. length combined with a high volume and extra width offers a stable platform for all sizes of riders; board easily handles long-distance trips and waves
  • The Surftech Laird 12' 1" standup paddleboard offers several unique design characteristics that make it easy to enter waves and maintain control in any situation
  • Foiled rails increase side-to-side sensitivity to enhance turns, and the wide, thinned-down nose with a slight concave adds stability in surf
  • Narrow pintail is thinned down to provide tight, easy, flowing turns
  • High-quality, lightweight Tuflite epoxy board features a sandwich construction that provides the ultimate combination of performance and durability
  • At the heart of each board is a waterproof EPS core that's wrapped in fiberglass
  • Core is then wrapped in an additional layer of foam, and then the final layer of fiberglass is added for a beautiful, eye-pleasing finish
  • The result is a board that offers years of performance, responsive handing and high durability
  • Center fin and 2 side fins promote straight tracking in the water; integrated deck pad provides exceptional grip and reduces foot fatigue
  • Center handle makes transporting your paddleboard a breeze

    Comments about Surftech Laird 12' 1" Stand Up Paddleboard:

    I mostly use this board for flat-water paddling in the bay. I'm a novice, so this was an excellent progression from the rentals I've been using. The board is extremely stable. I'm 5'11 and 235lbs, and I haven't fallen off this board once so its very confidence inspiring. Very comfortable in the chop and swells and passing boat wakes too. My only complain is the tracking isnt as good as I'd like it to be. Otherwise great stability, build quality, and traction pad is nice. The volume gives superb flotation, I can take my kid along with me and we still are above the top water line. Could be faster too, but best you can expect with a board of this width. Overall very happy.

      Comments about Surftech Laird 12' 1" Stand Up Paddleboard:

      A great board for all skill levels, this board is super stable and glides well. it can be surfed, is stable for fishing standing up, has been used for overnights (gear attached to nose), and is perfect for beginners seeking a stable board to improve your skills with. The pintail has efficient water release making it a touch faster than the previous Ron House square tail version.
