Sorrento Highlights

Independently tested as one of the most rigid paddleboards on the market. The X-woven material combined with carbon stringers and triple-bonded delivers this category-leading performance while still only weighing 22 lbs. At 30' wide the Sorrento is still stable enough for beginners who want to paddle further.
Product Highlight Image

4 years of Total Care

Every Honu SUP is covered by our 2+2 warranty. That is 2 years of warranty replacement & 4 years of repair. And that's repair for any damage, not just manufacturing faults.

Product Highlight Image

Woven & Fused Drop-stitch

X-woven drop-stitch produces the strongest & lightest boards possible. The PVC nylon threads are woven together in a carbon fiber style instead of the usual knitted pattern that results in a stiffer, lighter PVC.

Product Highlight Image

Carbon-X Construction

The Sorrento construction includes triple-bonded rails along with 150mm carbon fibre stringers. This combination of 3x rail layers and carbon fibre combine to produce one of the stiffest boards (independently tested) available today.

Product Highlight Image

SUP Package + Paddle Option

Every board comes with a heavy-duty backpack, pump, leash & repair kit. You can include a Honu paddle at 20% off or stick with a favourite you already have. The choice is yours.

Whether paddling for fitness or adventure, the Sorrento iSUP delivers for your long-distance outings. Designed for those wanting to paddle further, it has enough anchor points for your backpack, water bottle, snacks and extra clothing. At 12'9 long by 30" wide, the Sorrento paddles easily in a straight line while remaining stable. This sweet spot of speed and stability makes it the perfect board for riders who want to go far and fast on their morning SUP paddle. 

At 5.9" thickness with carbon rails top & bottom, the Sorrento is among the most responsive inflatable paddleboards available anywhere. The triple-bonded rails further add to the board's rigidity and allow the board to be inflated to 20 PSI, which is easily achieved with the premium GRI pump that comes as a standard inclusion. This board will actually perform better than many of its composite alternatives and can be packed away in a small car or closet. 

The Sorrento is constructed with our industry-leading X-Woven & fused drop-stitch material. The X-woven material is around 30% lighter than standard fusion double-layer boards and produces a more rigid structure. The board is further strengthened by carbon fibre stringers top and bottom. These 'real carbon fibre' stringers help make the Sorrento iSUP one of the lightest, most responsive boards available today. 

The new range of Honu boards is now backed by our 2+2 year warranty. That's four years of assurance in your Honu product and paddleboarding experience.

Board - Fins - Bag - Pump - Leash - Repair Kit

It can take you just about anywhere while remaining relaxed and unencumbered throughout the journey.

Great board !

I trades my 12'6 yolo race board for an inflatable and I am so glad I chose the Sorrento ! It's a beautiful board and the finish feels high-end. I have taken it out twice so far at 15 ish PSI and 18 PSI and the board is very rigid even at 15 PSI. It's faster compared to other inflatables I've tried, and even though it's not the widest board it's pretty stable. I am 140 lbs and I had my 75 lbs German shepherd on the board both times. She moved around quite a bit but so far we've managed to stay afloat. I am very happy with the board so far and can't wait to take it on our next paddleboarding trip !!

Sometimes you can just feel quality and potential underfoot as the beautiful scenery passes by..this is one of those boards..

Before riding the Sorrento, it was just an appreciation of the board graphics, choice of trimmings and the ethos of the current Honu paddle board company. In reality up close this truly is one good looking board (much better lines and graphics than the competition) and hard to find fault with the design work and smooth lines with tasteful cargo bungees and great choice in FCS longboard directional fin.

I have no real experience with inflatable boards, coming from 14’ pvc sandwich construction of the Jimmy Lewis m14 and sidewinder 14’ 25” as well as NSP 11’ 31”. I have to say the Sorrento looks “the goods”, now down to the nitty gritty..

The only thing I feel that needs attention is the main centre handle (fore and aft are fine as they are). The position needs to be placed further aft a smidge to achieve centre balance for my liking, is too long (allowing board drop whilst carrying) but most importantly a little sharp on the edges when carrying any distance and cuts into the hand. Perhaps more rounded incorporating some neoprene to take the edge off? More like the current hard board handles.

Now for the goodness..this board is heaps stable and rigid (I am 5’11” and 90kg, when inflating your gauge will not cut in till 7psi board pressure, so keep going! Maiden voyage for me was only 15psi and was plenty rigid), in fact in cross chop because it is inflatable, I feel offers “cushion stability” allowing your feet to flex into the board itself ever so slightly instead of hard…

Once I ordered my board, it was delivered within days. Great service.

I love the product, very good quality. I am not very strong and can not pump it up with the pump provided with the board.

I will have to buy a battery operated pump, otherwise I cant use my board.

Apart from that, my board is amazingly strong and sturdy. I will be doing some long paddles on it, so it will be well used.

Touring paddle board

I’ve only ever used a hard board but this one is fast and efficient and inflates to a state as good as a hard board!
