The Gladiator Pro Lt 12'6" x 30" Touring Paddleboard Package is a fast and efficient inflatable touring SUP designed for paddlers who want to cover longer distances with excellent glide, precise tracking and dependable stability.
Featuring a streamlined 12'6" touring shape and 30-inch width, this Gladiator Pro paddleboard offers an ideal balance between speed and control. The narrower profile reduces drag and improves paddling efficiency, making it particularly well suited to confident recreational paddlers and those looking to progress their touring performance.
Whether you're exploring lakes, rivers, canals and coastal routes, heading out for a fitness paddle, or loading up for a longer adventure, the Gladiator Pro 12'6" x 30" delivers the performance and versatility needed for efficient touring.
Fast 12'6" Touring Shape
The 12'6" x 30" x 6" outline is designed to maximise glide and forward efficiency while retaining enough stability for comfortable touring.
Its square tail provides a stable platform and predictable handling, while the straight rail shape encourages a more vertical paddle stroke. This helps improve straight-line tracking and reduces the need to continually switch the paddle from one side to the other.
The result is a touring SUP that maintains momentum efficiently and makes covering longer distances feel easier.
Balanced 30-Inch Width
At 30 inches wide, this Gladiator Pro touring board is designed for paddlers who want more speed than a wider leisure-focused touring SUP without moving to an excessively narrow race-style board.
The balanced width provides responsive handling and efficient glide while retaining enough stability for recreational touring, fitness sessions and carrying additional equipment.
Double-Laminated Fusion Construction
The Gladiator Pro uses double-laminated fusion technology with a two-layer sandwich of 1000D textile substrate between layers of PVC.
This premium construction creates a strong and rigid inflatable paddleboard with the stiffness needed for efficient touring performance.
Triple Rail Edge Technology
Gladiator's triple rail edge construction uses a monocoque design that joins the upper and lower sections of the board before adding two additional reinforcement layers around the rails.
This construction increases rigidity, reduces unwanted flex and contributes to the board's ability to maintain its shape under pressure. It also helps produce the refined nose profile found across the Gladiator Pro range.
Refined Nose for Efficient Glide
The refined nose is designed to move smoothly through the water, helping reduce resistance and maintain forward momentum.
This performance-focused shape is particularly useful during longer-distance touring and when paddling through chop or small waves, where efficient water entry can help maintain speed and control.
Comfortable Crocodile Deck Pad
The double-cushioned crocodile-pattern deck pad provides excellent grip and additional comfort during longer paddling sessions.
Its textured and cushioned surface helps reduce fatigue underfoot while providing secure footing when paddling, manoeuvring or moving around the board.
Touring Cargo Storage
The bungee cargo system provides useful storage for dry bags, clothing, water and other paddling essentials.
Front and rear cargo capacity makes the board particularly practical for day trips, longer tours and overnight SUP adventures, allowing you to carry additional equipment without compromising your paddling area.
Easy-Carry Handle System
A thick padded central handle makes carrying the inflated paddleboard to and from the water more comfortable.
Flat webbing handles at the front and rear provide additional carrying and handling points while maintaining a durable, streamlined design.
Universal Fin System
The Gladiator Pro includes a strong Gladiator-branded fin with a 198mm universal fin box.
The shortened fin box helps make the board easier to roll and pack when deflated while retaining the versatility of a universal fin system. Alternative fins, including shorter river fins, can be fitted where appropriate.
3-Piece Carbon Shaft Paddle
The included Gladiator 3-piece paddle features a full carbon shaft combined with a durable nylon blade and comfortable palm handle.
Its lightweight construction helps reduce fatigue during longer paddling sessions, while the adjustable design accommodates different paddler heights. The paddle separates into three sections for easy storage inside the Gladiator SUP bag.
Gladiator Wheeled SUP Backpack
The included Gladiator wheeled backpack features an oversized rectangular design that makes repacking the deflated paddleboard easier.
A durable zip, foil-lined interior for additional UV protection during storage and an integrated Velcro system for securing the backpack straps make the bag practical for both transport and long-term storage.
Bravo SUPer Hand Pump
The included Bravo SUPer pump is designed for efficient inflation and convenient storage. Its fixed hose design helps reduce unwanted movement while pumping, while removable handles and hinged feet allow it to pack neatly alongside the paddleboard.
3-Year Warranty
The Gladiator Pro is backed by a 3-year warranty, providing additional confidence in its premium construction and durability.
Combining a fast 12'6" touring outline, balanced 30-inch width, premium fusion construction and a lightweight carbon-shaft paddle, the Gladiator Pro Lt 12'6 Touring Paddleboard Package is an excellent choice for paddlers seeking speed, tracking and efficient long-distance SUP performance.
