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.

A diamond patterned deck pad is easier on your feet with a kick tail that allows pivot and kick turning on a dime!

NeedleNose™126 Reviews
4.9 out of 5 stars. (18)I have two NN126's. I use mine with the tall back seat for kayaking, and with the Oarboard for rowing, as well as a SUP. It is very fast in all 3 modes. I like the hard nose-especially for rowing, as you don't always see what's ahead. It is durable like my Razorlite kayak, and more portable. They all fit easily in my SUV. Service and delivery was excellent. Great staff. The 14' runabout is next on my list.
This is my second Sea Eagle SUP and I love it. My friend wanted to try and she did great her first attempt. The longer boat is more stable.
First of all ... I am assuming that a score of 5 means Excellent ... which is the rating I would give my NN126 paddle boards ... I say boards because I bought 2. The quality is outstanding, the rigidity is great, performance as good if not better than any similar sized "non-inflatable", and the versatility is great ... in addition to the "stand up mode", we use them as "kayaks" with a seat attached (the seat from our Sea Eagle kayak) and also as a rower ... since I did add the rowing kit. Blowing the board up was easy because I used the electric pump ... it may have taken a lot longer with the manual pump, but I don't know for sure. As for portability ... I don't travel with them often ... but not having to have a Car Rack make this process easy ... outside of having to deflate and inflate. But less storage is space is big benefit. I certainly would recommend them as a Best Buy, and certainly would buy them again ... if I ever need another.
My NN126 was everything I was hoping it would be. I’d been wanting this board for years but didn’t want to pull the trigger on the $$. When the price dropped earlier this summer, it was finally time! And I’m so happy with the purchase. The board performs as well as it has been advertised. I was on it multiple times this summer and became more & more confident on it each time. My only regret.... not buying the battery powered inflation generator (I bought the electric one instead). It works great... the battery powered one would have been more convenient.

(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.
