The Gladiator 10'6 Kids SUP board has a dedicated shape for younger paddlers, geared towards flat-water adventures (although it can still be a blast in small waves!). The pointed nose and extra length make it super-fast and the narrow width offers the perfect blend of stability and easy use for kids that love SUP and want their own board.
Children should be given the best start when they begin their paddleboarding experience. Gladiator kids boards are all made from the same high quality 4.7” drop stitch that are found on the larger boards. This allows for growth up to their mid teens before they need to upgrade.
 
A vital part of the kids design is to keep the board narrow to allow for the vertical paddle stroke. The 2 Origin boards Gladiator offer are 28” wide in the 9'6 all round shape and the 10'6 touring shapes, meaning kids can play in the conditions that they are likely to paddle in lots. The 10'6  travels fast because of the nose shape and allows parents to keep up with adults that already have a touring set up.
