the art of riverskating is to find play spots everywhere
riverskate is the most radical performance whitewater SUP ever built.
prototyped as a low-volume "squirtboard" - it's the first SUP capable of cartwheeling like a playboat.
riverskate's design evolution led to the breakthrough of grab wings (patent pending).
grab wings dramatically improve secondary stability which unlocks progressive whitewater freestyle maneuvers in a standing position.
almost weightless: under 20 lbs
it's not a riverskate unless it's light enough to hike deep into places for secret missions
we're solving the construction issues of hard boards (heavy weight, breakability) and inflatables (limitation to "pancake" shape rails) with an alternative foam laminate construction that's boardslide-tough and infinitely customizable.
our mission is to cultivate a performance-oriented approach within our young sport using materials that are recyclable, reusable, and repairable.
let's grow our sport: become a test rider
riverskate is a mission-driven company. we have a hyper-local approach with our western North Carolina community to design, test, and craft all of our products.
before making boards available nationally, we are offering a special series of prototypes for selected paddlers to test. we want you to go out to your local play waves, drops, and features, and see how our designs work for you.
