Not all MOAI boards are for sale on Amazon, therefore you’ll find links to other retailers. I try to check broken / updated links as often as I can, but since I’m running this site on my own and in multiple languages, it’s almost impossible to keep this updated.

Found links that didn’t work? Please mention them in the comments. Thank you 🙏🏻

The MOAI 10’6″ is one of my favorite SUP boards for 2020. This is a great all-round board that is suitable for both older and younger people. Do you use a board recreationally, with multiple people or to relax? Then this is definitely a board to consider this year.

  • Is wonderful on the water compared to a 4.7″ thick board
  • Not so agile due to its length
  • Maximum capacity of 286 lbs / 130 kg, this can sometimes be too little

The MOAI 11′ is also very popular. The sleek design, in combination with the all-round shape, makes it a perfect SUP.

  • More sporty than the MOAI 10’6″
  • Gorgeous unisex design
  • More expensive than the 10’6″ which makes it less interesting for beginners

MOAI 12’4″

The MOAI 12’4″ is designed for multi-person use. For example, there is room to install a kayak seat up to twice and it has multiple handles to carry the SUP to the water. You also get two paddles instead of one when you buy this sup.

  • Fun for families, couples or friends
  • Inflating the SUP takes quite a long time (+/- 8 minutes at a steady pace)

Now it is also possible to go wingsurfing on your Stand Up Paddle Board or surfboard! You use one of these wings, which are handy inflatable kites.

The force of the wind will pull you forward across the water, so you do not have to paddle anymore. So it is getting closer to kitesurfing, but in a more basic way which makes it a lot easier to learn!

Do you want to try something new, or are you just bored with paddling around all the time? Try out one of these wing sets for a completely new experience!

  • Fully Inflatable
  • Compact size for transport
  • Available in 3 sizes; 4M, 5M & 6M

Another trend that is getting more and more popular is foiling. With these handy foil boards you can get out on the water and reach higher speeds and bigger heights.

The more professional you are, the smaller the board you can use to carve the waves. Beginners to foiling are advised to stick to the bigger sizes.

Just note that these boards are sold without the foil itself, so you need to purchase a foil wing separately.

MOAI kayaks and canoes

MOAI Kayaks and Canoes

In 2021 MOAI has started to also produce inflatable kayaks and canoes in different sizes. These are made with the distinctive MOAI design and are available for 1 or 2 persons to go out on the water together.

Suitable for calm lakes but also for rough water. They have a movable seat and footrest for ultimate comfort.

All kayak packages will be delivered with a kayak paddle(s), seat(s), pump and bag so you can get started right away!
