Paddle Board Highlights
Who is it for?
If you’re looking for a premium race-specific paddle board, check out the Jackpot from Rogue. This non-inflatable paddle board is best for the expert paddlers who can handle the instability that comes with the narrow width. Weighing in at just over 27lbs, the Jackpot is at an average weight for a similar board of it’s size and doesn’t offer much difficulty when carrying it. This board is a great option for someone looking for that flatwater raceboard that can also work in bumps and a bit rougher conditions if need be.
First Impressions
The Jackpot by Rogue is another fast board from Rogue and glides really well. It does lean more towards being a flatwater board but can also handle a lot of bump. This board’s main focus is speed so it’s great for racers and the standing well is very comfortable. The Jackpot was a really fun board to paddle and get some speed on and definitely deserves a look if this is what you’re shooting for.
