Products we compared
Niphean Pro All-Round 11’6″ 2026
RRP: £ , $359
A confidence inspiring all-round board with plenty of width for maximum stability
Pros: Super stable feel. Nice stiff construction. Good overall board finish. Built-in pressure relief valve. Very competitively priced.
Cons: Lighter paddlers may find the extra width excessive. Heavier feel through the water compared to 12'6" Pro.
Consider buying if... you want maximum stability whilst still having enough board length for relaxed cruising, carrying gear and paddling further with ease.
Niphean Pro Touring 12’6″ 2026
RRP: £ , $419
A beginner friendly touring board with maximum stability
Pros: Nice and stable feel. Good stiff construction. Good overall board finish. Built-in pressure relief valve. Very competitively priced. Nice to have a board at 12'6" in length but with good width.
Cons: Designed more as a beginner friendly touring board, so more experienced paddlers may find the extra width limits overall touring performance.
Consider buying if... you want a beginner friendly touring board with excellent stability. Ideal for heavier riders or paddlers wanting extra confidence while covering more distance.
What we say
In this SUPboarder video, we compare two popular inflatable paddle boards from Niphean — the Pro All Round 11’6” and the Pro Touring 12’6”.
Both boards have been designed with stability as a major focus. At 33 and 35″ wide, they’re noticeably wider than many paddle boards at the same length, and they also feature an additional central stabilising fin setup to further increase confidence on the water. This makes both boards particularly appealing for newer paddlers, families, heavier riders, or anyone simply wanting a very stable and forgiving SUP.
But despite their similarities, these two boards are aimed at slightly different styles of paddling.
These boards are very competitively priced hence plenty of Niphean boards appearing on the water. However unfortunately these boards are currently only available in the US market.
