The Earth River SUP 11-0 is the tough and ready workhorse of the ERS 2017 line up that excels in stability, balance, and use in all conditions. ERS gave it 34 inches of width, a sweet spot for balancing stability, speed, and fun. There are wider boards out there, but the facts are that 34 inches is the maximum width that maintains glide, correct body position (easy reach-over), and responsiveness. The 11-0 gets you out enjoying the water on days when choppy conditions might deter you and gives you an incredibly stable platform for absolutely anything you want to do.
