About the NN126 NeedleNose™
Now featuring a New Full Length Electric Pattern Diamond Deck EVA Foam Pad, convenient built-in paddle saving PaddlePocket™ holder and a low profile slide in Swept Back Skeg! This is the world's best tracking inflatable SUP ever!
Sea Eagle's NeedleNose 126 offers an even larger stable platform with increased floatation, rigidity and even more stability! Larger than its little sister the NN116 but smaller than its big brother the NN14 - the NN126 puts you right smack in the middle. So you get the best of both worlds!
Breakthrough Design features: straight-line hull, patented wave piercing bow, touring shape, NEW FULL LENGTH ELECTRIC PATTERN DIAMOND DECK PAD with custom performance kick tail and the ability to paddle faster, further and easier!
At 6" thick there's no need to worry about rigidity or flotation any more! Sitting or standing the NN126 does it all!
Best suited for those weighing 225 lbs or less.
About the NeedleNose™ Series
The patented NeedleNose™ iSUPs are by far the best tracking iSUPs in the world! Able to perform in a vast array of environmental conditions where other inflatables wouldn't dare! Get the performance of a rigid board plus the convenience of an inflatable and more!
Aptly named NeedleNose™ these iSUPs feature a patented razor sharp, wave piercing bow that allows you to slice through the wind, waves, current and water. Something that no other iSUP can offer. The elegant curved touring shape with a straight-line NO UPTURN hull design enables you to customize your skill and performance levels with 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear standing locations (see video). A diamond patterned deck pad is easier on your feet with a kick tail that allows pivot and kick turning on a dime! These features make the NeedleNose™ iSUPs the fastest, sleekest, best inflatable SUPs in the world!
Say goodbye to unnecessary airline fees and damaged SUPs! These weigh under 35 lbs. and are designed to be checked as baggage. (US Patent #8,821,204)

Newly Improved Patented NeedleNose™ Design
New and improved razor sharp, wave piercing, current cutting, wind shearing, NeedleNose™ bow that further diverts water flow reducing drag, and easily slices through most everything!

(US Patent #8,821,204)
Customize Your Skill and Performance Levels with 1st, 2nd and 3rd Gear
1st Gear: Most stable position, great for beginners, nice and easy pace.
2nd Gear: Lowers the NeedleNose™ bow, increases planning surface area, increases speed.
3rd Gear: Optimizes speed performance, fully engages NeedleNose™, NeedleNose™ slices through the water decreasing hull resistance while enabling straight and true tracking, full waterline length being utilized for speed, paddle stroke kinesiology being optimized for speed and efficiency.
Custom Performance Kick Tail
Enabling you to easily perform advanced maneuvers such as sharp, snappy kick turns and 360º (turn on a dime) pivot turns while preventing you from slipping off the tail and assisting you with blind foot placement that's precise every time.
Super Rigid High Pressure Lightweight Drop Stitch Material Construction
Our Drop Stitch material uses thousands of high tensile strength threads connecting the top and bottom fabric layers, creating thousands of I-beam supports. This enables our NeedleNose™ Series SUPs to be inflated to a much higher pressure (15 psi) which increases overall rigidity while maintaining our SUPs incredible light weight. The unique Drop Stitch construction provides the added benefit of being able to be pack in its own backpack. The Sea Eagle NeedleNose™ SUP is tough as nails, incredibly rigid, ultra light, and a delight to paddle.
Full Length Diamond Deck Pad
Engineered to provide maximum foot comfort and grip during those long tours. The diamond surface deck pad displaces pounds per square inch of pressure evenly along the pads of your feet while introducing air voids. Think it as standing on the clouds. This allows you to paddle longer, further and faster without suffering from achy feet.
