The Infinity Blackfish – The All-Around King on the Water

The Infinity SUP Blackfish Flat Deck, designed by Dave Boehne, is a high-performance stand-up paddleboard (SUP) designed for speed, stability, and maneuverability. It has a sleek, streamlined shape race design that excels in all racing conditions and open water. The Blackfish is the All-Around king and has influenced an industry with the original hybrid planning hull surf concepts applied to SUP race designs.

This “flat deck” original version is a true flat style deck with just 1.5″ of recess in the deck. This gives you a sure-footed stance and max-width. Flat decks are the preferred style for riders who constantly go in and out of the surf, like to walk and move about the board a lot, and want a no-frills paddling experience.

Blackfish got all new Team Elite Carbon construction in that the entire EPS foam core is built with a PVC shell then wrapped in carbon fiber which resulted in the lightest and even more durable Blackfish boards we have ever made. Ensuring optimal performance and responsiveness on the water.

The NEW nose is a big deal and the first design change to the nose since the Blackfish inception. The nose got taller, sharper, and has a more aggressive peak in the deck forming the shape of the nose. At first glance the nose looks upside down. The idea was to increase the efficiency of the board specifically in upwind conditions. The nose is taller with a sharper entry which “stabs” the swell in front while providing a finer and more quieter entry in flat water which translates to increased flat water glide. Increased efficiency grinding into chop plus flat water glide?

The bottom is a planing hull hybrid and is able to paddle in all conditions. The stability is built through the outline. The bottom features a rolled hull framing a unique inverse vee panel that releases cleanly off the flat tail exit behind the fin. The soft rounded hull moves and slips through the water rather than parting it. This makes for very fast “get up and go” and non governing max sprint speeds. “Like skipping a stone” Blackfish likes to sprint off the line.

Overall, the Infinity SUP Blackfish Flat Deck 14′ x 23″ is a top-of-the-line SUP board that offers exceptional performance for paddlers looking to excel in racing or cover long distances with ease. Its sleek design, stability, and speed make it a popular choice among serious SUP enthusiasts and competitive racers.
