Buying a board for the first time should be exciting. I remember the first time I tried paddling boarding, I wanted a board right away.
Back then SUP was just starting out and there weren’t too many choices. Now, it seems everyone is making boards: choices are endless and to add to the confusion, there are a range of sizes and dimensions. So not only do you have to choose between graphics, but you have to find the right size as well.
No need to worry, we are here to help you along the process so that you find your perfect sup mate 
Cali Bliss SUP
Idylwild Tank, Teeki Hot Shorts, Wildfox Sunnies.
10′ length , 33.5″ width, 5″ thick. Weight: 28 lbs
9’6″ length, 32″ width, 4 5/8″ thick. Weight: 26 lbs.
Most sup companies manufactor a classic style sup board and some of them offer yoga boards. Nobody makes a hybrid.
We believe that boards should be multi-purpose. You should have the ability to take it from the bay to the ocean while gliding along effortlessly from paddling to playful yoga sessions.
The Cali Bliss stands for free livin’ and Cali lovin’. Designed with love from paddling in the bays and harbors of San Diego and Newport Beach, to the oceans of Laguna Beach, this board will paddle freely from adventure to adventure.
Built as a hybrid for yoga and paddling, the Cali Bliss is wide and stable, but not “boatlike” so you don’t lose any speed. Features include an extra long deck pad for yoga, 3 fins, and bamboo top and bottom.
The only difference between the 2 sizes is that the 9’6″ board is a tad smaller so carrying and transporting is a little easier. Also the more you paddle, the more you will work your balance.

Our best selling board ~ the mermaid gypsy is built for adventures and floating yoga. Similar to the 10′ Cali Bliss, this board has an extra long deck pad that’s soft and comfortable for yoga. 3 fins plus bamboo top and bottom makes it beautiful and durable.
