8'6'' Inflatable SUP Paddleboard (Coral Blaze)

The Samphire 8'6" just got even more versatile. Now featuring integrated D-rings for kayak seat compatibility (seat sold separately), this board transitions effortlessly from a stand-up paddleboard to a sit-down kayak. Despite these new features, we haven't compromised on our core DNA: our industry-leading MFW (MonoFusionWeld) technology. This process precision heat-welds two layers into one strong monolayer, ensuring that even our most compact board remains super-stiff, incredibly stable, and impressively lightweight. It is the perfect, no-compromise introduction to the water for younger riders and lighter adults up to 75kg. Not every paddleboard is built equally. At Samphire, all of our paddleboards are produced using our industry-leading MFW, or ‘MonoFusionWeld’ Technology. In this process, two layers of material are precision heat-welded together, forming one strong layer. This produces lightweight, yet super-stiff boards - meaning an easier, quicker, and more stable paddleboarding experience for you. Whether you are cruising down rivers or catching your first waves, the 8'6" delivers the same premium performance as its bigger siblings.

About MFW Construction: Generally, you’ll hear of three types of SUP construction - single layer, double layer, and ‘fusion’ construction, our MFW technology. Single-layer is the most widely used and cheapest construction to produce. Seen a super cheap board online? It’ll use this basic construction. It uses just one layer of plastic - so although lightweight, it’s super soft and flexible and can lose its shape over time. It will visibly bow beneath you in the water, feeling unstable - not great for anyone, especially beginners.

A double-layer uses two layers of plastic literally glued together. The result? A stiffer board, but with all that glue, they’re super heavy, can carry cosmetic imperfections, and are much trickier to roll and pack away. The answer? Our MFW Fusion Tech. Two layers, precision heat-welded into one monolayer. Super stiff, yet super lightweight, incredibly durable, and easy to pack and roll. The best of all worlds, and the downsides of none - and the only construction we trust here at Samphire.

Paddleboard Safety:

• Always wear a buoyancy aid or personal floatation device. Ensure you are using a suitable leash for your paddling environment and conditions. Calf or ankle leashes should not be used on fast-flowing water where there is a risk of snagging or entrapment. Straight (non-coiled) leashes should be used when surfing.
