Paddle sport brand BOTE has updated its popular HD Aero inflatable stand-up paddle board for the 2026 season, adding new functional features and colour options aimed at broadening its all-round appeal on the water.
The refreshed HD Aero iSUP now incorporates the MAGNEPOD™ Duo magnetic mounting system, allowing paddlers to secure a range of compatible accessories — including drinkware, speakers and packs — directly to the board’s deck. The update also includes a magnetic clip-in centre fin designed to make setup quicker and simpler compared with traditional removable fins.
The HD Aero continues to showcase BOTE’s AeroBOTE™ technology, a lightweight, inflatable construction that packs into a travel bag yet expands into a full-sized 11′6″ paddle board. Built with military-grade PVC and a wide, stable platform, the board is positioned as a versatile choice for a range of on-water activities — from casual cruising to fishing, carrying gear, pets or passengers. Its dimensions (11′6″ long × 34″ wide × 6″ thick) and approximately 315 lb weight capacity reflect its do-it-all design ethos.
Included with the HD Aero package are essentials such as an adjustable SUP paddle, removable centre fin, paddle sheath, repair kit, hand pump and travel bag. The board’s adaptability is further supported by compatibility with BOTE’saccessory systems, including Rac receivers for fishing gear and Travelink™ carry straps.
This update marks the first major refresh for the HD Aero in 2026, and it arrives as part of a broader product calendar that BOTE has signalled for its inflatable lineup. Following the HD Aero’s February release, refreshed versions of the WULF(due Feb 25), Breeze (March 2) and Rider Series (March 9) are scheduled to enter the market with new aesthetics and, in some cases, updated features.
