The Endurance XL is a purpose-built large touring paddle board designed for paddlers who want distance, efficiency, and stability - without feeling limited by size or load. With extra length and volume, it delivers a smooth, efficient glide while remaining calm and predictable underfoot, even when carrying gear or supporting a larger rider.
Whether you’re paddling long stretches of flatwater, exploring coastline, or heading out on fitness and adventure-focused sessions, the Endurance XL is built to stay composed mile after mile. It’s ideal for bigger paddlers, heavier loads, or anyone who wants a touring SUP that feels powerful, stable, and comfortable - not twitchy or technical.

-
After your session, give the board a quick rinse with fresh water and let it dry before storing - especially if you’ve been in saltwater.
Store your board in a cool, shaded place, out of direct sunlight. If possible, keep it flat or on its side using proper board racks.
A little care goes a long way - treat it well and your board will stay solid, smooth, and ready for the next paddle.
-
Made with Ricochet™ Impact Resistance Technology - a tough, resilient build designed to handle real-world use. From dock bumps and rocky launches to the everyday wear that comes with fishing and exploring, the board is built to take hits without losing its shape or performance.
It’s a construction you don’t have to baby. Just load up, push off, and focus on the water ahead.

Performance Metrics
The Endurance XL feels steady and “locked in” the moment you step on - built to stay composed under load, and keep moving forward efficiently.
Glides smoothly and holds speed with less effort thanks to the displacement hull - perfect for long flatwater miles.
Best for mellow current and wide rivers - stable enough to stay confident while you focus on the route (and the gear).
Stays composed when conditions get textured - extra volume and stability help it feel predictable when loaded.
Tracks straight and efficiently for touring. Turning is steady and deliberate - built for control, not snap turns.

Why paddlers love it
GEAR-READY BY DESIGN
More payload, more attachment points, a deck that can accomodate a full sized bivy, and room to move around comfortably.
Bombproof Construction
Ricochet™ Technology:
Ricochet™ is built for real-world impacts - rocks, paddles, docks, and the stuff that happens when you actually use your board. The membrane is integrated into the fiberglass construction to deliver exceptional durability without turning the board into a tank.
- More confidence launching in rugged spots and shallow edges
- A touring board that stays tough season after season
- Less stress when the board is loaded and your trip gets real
Crafted in California
The Endurance XL was designed for paddlers who don’t fit into the “average” mold - whether that means a bigger body, more gear, or longer days on the water. From the start, the goal was to create a touring board that stays efficient without feeling fragile, and stable without feeling slow.
“This board was built for the days when you’re carrying more than just a paddle. Whether it’s camping gear, fishing equipment, or just the confidence to paddle farther, the Endurance XL is designed to stay solid when things get heavy.” - Todd Caranto, Pau Hana Founder

Frequently Asked Questions
-
The Endurance range shares the same touring-focused shape and performance DNA, but volume and capacity increase as you move up the line.
- Endurance – Best for average-sized paddlers focused on fitness and touring
- Endurance XL – More volume and stability for heavier or taller paddlers, or those carrying lots more gear
- Endurance VFT / Hard Board versions – Same touring intent, different construction and durability needs
If you’re near the upper weight limit of the standard Endurance, the XL will feel more stable and efficient.
- Endurance – Best for average-sized paddlers focused on fitness and touring
-
The added volume helps the board sit higher in the water, improving stability, glide, and comfort under load. For larger paddlers, this means better efficiency and less drag compared to riding an undersized board.
-
No. When properly sized to the rider, the Endurance XL often paddles more efficiently than a smaller board overloaded beyond its ideal range. The goal isn’t maximum speed - it’s smooth, sustainable glide over distance.
-
Choose the Endurance XL if:
- You’re a larger or taller paddler
- You plan to carry gear, hydration, or touring equipment
- You want a more forgiving, stable touring platform
- You don’t want to feel under-supported on longer paddles
- You’re a larger or taller paddler
-
Yes - especially for larger beginners. The added width and volume make the board feel more confidence-inspiring while still delivering the benefits of a touring shape.
-
Compared to an all-around board, the Endurance XL:
- Tracks straighter
- Glides more efficiently
- Feels better over long distances
If short turns or surf are the goal, an all-around board is better. If distance and efficiency matter, the Endurance XL wins.
- Tracks straighter
-
If you’re on the fence, size up. Most paddlers are happier on a board with slightly more volume than one that feels under-supported - especially for touring and fitness paddling.
-
Unlikely. The Endurance XL is designed to support paddlers as they progress, offering stability early on and efficient glide as skills and fitness improve.
