Paddle Richmond: SUP & kayak on the Thames

We only sell boards and equipment that we have tried for ourselves, so you can buy from us in confidence, safe in the knowledge that you have a quality piece of kit that will help you make some amazing memories!

​

We are retailer for both Starboard and Gladiator who produce the boards we use on our fleet.  We can supply any board, paddle or accessory from their extensive ranges.  Get in touch to find out more, or check them out at the Starboard or Gladiator websites.

 

For river use we usually recommend touring boards that are 11'6 to 14' in length, and vary from 28" to 34" in width.  Longer and narrower is faster!  Wider is more stable...  

 

Shorter 10'6 all-rounder boards are great, but are probably better for the beach, for kids, or playing in white water!

FREE Quick Release Waist Belt with every board purchased! On top of all the amazing kit that comes in a standard board package, we are now including a QR waist belt. This attaches to your ankle leash cuff and creates a safe, easy to use  waist leash that can prevent entanglement when paddling, and can be swiftly removed if needed.
