SipaBoards, a leading Slovenia-based innovator in paddle board technology and the creators of the world’s first e-driven, self-inflatable, stand-up paddle board (e-SUP), announce updated boards for 2023.
The new SipaBoards Drive Collection includes three updated board and power combinations — the Neo, Tourer and All-Arounder, each featuring a new modular power-pack system that allows for quicker charging and longer rides.
“Too many people find themselves in situations where changing wind, strong currents or tides, change a fun outing into a dangerous situation,” said Sebastjan Sitar, SipaBoards founder. “Anyone who has found themselves paddling back into the wind, knows the feeling.”
Sitar founded SipaBoards after his wife and daughter nearly got carried away by strong currents while paddling.
The highlight of the new collection is the SipaDrive 2.0 jet motor. It now features an updated e-drive with ample LED lights on the bottom, illuminating the seabed below and enhancing the paddling experience. The new paddle assist unit is extremely durable and equipped with a brand new top cover seal system, for easy access while ensuring dryness.
The Sipa All-Rounder Drive is one of the brand’s e-SUP models. It’s an 11-foot long, 35.4 inches wide and six inches thick self-inflating paddleboard featuring a fully integrated jet motor and a built-in compressor. The carbon fiber paddle comes with a wireless Bluetooth remote that controls three speed options – slow, medium, and fast. The 144Wh battery allows up to 7 hours of riding and pushes the board to speeds up to 4.3 MPH.
Features of the All-Rounder Drive:
● Dual+ battery system that offers three different solutions – Cruise, Adventure, and Expedition,
providing up to 6 hours of riding time
● New batteries provide twice as much range, while doubling down the charging time. A powerful
charger will charge up the 90 Wh blocks in just over one hour, and the bigger 180 Wh blocks in
over 2 hours
● Built-in compressor inflates the boards in 6-8 minutes
● Board, power pack and paddle all fit into an easy-to-carry backpack for travel
● Bluetooth remote control
● Smartphone app for iOS and Android
