About This Board

Built for How You Paddle.

The convenience of an inflatable with the performance, durability, and style of a Hydrus.

Built for travel-friendly river surfing: pack the board, pump, fins, and leash into the backpack and fly carry-on to your wave. Within 24 hours of being back home you're surfing Idaho river waves.

Travel convenient. Low-flow mushy-wave friendly. Beginner-approachable. High-performance inflatable. Stiffness and durability.

Strap it to your raft, SUP, or kayak and take advantage of all those exclusive waves you spot along the way. Brings a fun day on the river to a whole new level.

Perfect for SUPers who want something with enough float for mushy waves but quicker and more lively than their inflatable SUP. A meaningful upgrade from other inflatable surfboards.

Jami N. — JoyRide paddleboard
JoyRide
★★★★★

The Joyride is by far the best board I have ever owned. I feel completely at ease in the ocean waves or the shallow waters of the mangroves.

— Jami N.
JASON P. — Paradise paddleboard
Paradise
★★★★★

The Hydrus Paradise tracks and glides very well for an inflatable paddle board. It's easy to sprint between 5-6 mph on flat water.

— JASON P.
Mandy M. — JoyRide XL paddleboard
JoyRide XL
★★★★★

This board is extremely stable and handles the water like no other. Payette lake is notorious for its waves and wind.

— Mandy M.
Erich C. — Paradise paddleboard
Paradise
★★★★★

It's fast, and surprisingly stable once I got used to the narrower profile. The quality has been fantastic.

— Erich C.

I message the company and received a phone call from Jason (the man himself) a few hours later.

NICHOLAS J. — Party Board paddleboard

We love this thing. Half the time we're using it as an inflatable dock at the lake that we can jump off of or just relax on.

Josh J. — JoyRide paddleboard

First trip out was down Silver Springs to see manatee, river otter, blue tilapia, and so much other wildlife.

— Josh J.
Luke E. — AXIS 98 paddleboard
AXIS 98
★★★★★

I have had 4 Hydrus hard boards and the Axis 8'8" is my 1st inflatable from them. It feels unlike any other iSUP I have tried.

— Luke E.
Billy T. — JoyRide XL paddleboard
JoyRide XL
★★★★★

Super stiff and stable, tracks really well and has more maneuverability than I'd have expected for its size. The material and build looks bombproof.

— Billy T.
David B. — AXIS 98 paddleboard
AXIS 98
★★★★★

Angela and Jason made the whole process of buying my Hydrus Axis an absolute pleasure from first contact to my board arriving.

— David B.
peter c. — JoyRide XL paddleboard
JoyRide XL
★★★★★

I bought it because I was looking for something durable for my size (6'4", 300lbs). I have to say I am extremely happy with it.

JIMMY L. — Elysium Air paddleboard

★★★★★

If you're on the fence about this board, do yourself a favor. I have not fallen off this board even while paddling in wavy and rough ocean waters.

— JIMMY L.
Allan — Paradise paddleboard
Paradise
★★★★★

I upgraded to this board from an Atoll 11'. This board tracks really well and feels firm and stable underfoot.

— Allan
Jason V. — Paradise paddleboard
Paradise
★★★★★

We discussed other options including the JoyRide, but based on my input and background Jason recommended the Paradise and I could not be happier.

— Jason V.
Brandon S. — JoyRide XL paddleboard
JoyRide XL
★★★★★

First iSUP I've owned and it's phenomenal. I spent over 40 hours researching various boards and was referred to Hydrus by a reputable blogger.

— Brandon S.
Aaron M. — JoyRide XL paddleboard

INCREDIBLE board. Super stable with speed too. Don't hesitate — I can't imagine any other brand being remotely close to Hydrus.

— Aaron M.
Brandon L. — Paradise paddleboard
Paradise
★★★★★

The Paradise is so fast and fun but still stable. I'm a beginner and had no issues standing up and staying on.

— Brandon L.
Jerome G. — Axis98 paddleboard

★★★★★

I finally have my Hydrus Axis 98! By far the best river paddle board. Indestructible frame and so effective in the rapids.

— Jerome G.
Scott N. — Elysium Air paddleboard
Elysium Air
★★★★★

I knew this board was going to be good but after receiving it I was blown away. The color, style, stability and speed are fantastic.

— Scott N.
Kalsi — JoyRide paddleboard
JoyRide
★★★★★

After trying many different boards this one was recommended to me and I'll never own another. The quality and performance is unmatched.

Common Questions About This Board.

More flex than a hardboard but more responsive than typical inflatable surfboards. Enough float for mushy river waves, lively enough to feel like surfing not lounging.
20 PSI maximum. 12-15 PSI for typical paddling. Always under 20 PSI.
Yes. The FCS-style fin boxes accept any FCS fin. Use the included tri-fin click-in set out of the box, or swap in your tuned surf setup.
