Gladiator Elite LT 12'6 x 29” x 4.7” Touring Paddle Board for the Lighter Rider

The Gladiator Elite LT 12'6 x 29” x 4.7” touring board is specifically designed for lighter and shorter paddlers who are looking for a touring board. This innovative design technology is paving the way for all riders, including those who are shorter and lighter, to have a touring board that offers the perfect volume in various riding conditions, including choppy water and windy days. By utilising high-density material and advanced glueing technology, Gladiator is able to offer a 4.7" dropstitch in longer touring board shapes, providing a stiff board with a lower volume specifically tailored for lighter, shorter riders. This eliminates the issue of over volume that is often experienced with 6" thick touring boards. Gladiator is committed to making this technology accessible at an affordable price so that every rider can enjoy the best experience on the water. The 12'6 Elite comes in 3 widths: - **The LT 29" x 4.7" for shorter, lighter riders** - The Sport: 30" x 5.9" wide for a shorter rider or a more proficient rider wanting even more speed - The Touring: 32" x 5.9" wide for the rider wanting a great leisure paddling experience with more stability but with a slightly slower glide Made from market-leading machine weave 26psi high-density double laminated dropstitch, the Elite is top of its class, being 20% lighter and stiffer than fusion layer boards. The weave has less give than the traditional knitted method, providing superior flex, rigidity, and durability. The Gladiator Elite is reinforced with an Xstrong triple rail edge, adding to the 'solid' board feel and enhancing rigidity, glide, and performance. It features front, rear, and centre carrying handles for easy transportation, as well as bungee tie-downs for carrying kit. The Elite is designed with a focus on detail, offering minimum weight and exceptional quality. The Refined Nose Shape: Gaining the 'refined nose' is one of the aspects of manufacturing that sets a board apart within the premium category.
