NANO ZIP AIR 9'8" Compact Inflatable Paddle Board, Fold-in-Half Design | Taiga Board
Description
NANO ZIP AIR 9'8" Compact Inflatable Paddle Board
An inflatable paddle board that folds in half before rolling for extra-compact storage. It inflates to 20 PSI, weighs 17.4 lbs board-only, carries up to 325 lbs, and packs down to 22 x 18 x 12 inches.
Most inflatable boards roll up long and bulky. NANO ZIP AIR's Zip Air Technology lets it fold in half before rolling, so the packed board is about 50% smaller than a typical inflatable SUP. Underneath, X-WOVEN FUSION and stringer construction hold the board rigid at 20 PSI, so it doesn't flex like a cheaper inflatable once you're standing on it. That combination of fold-in-half storage and a 325 lb capacity is what sets it apart from a typical compact inflatable, which usually sacrifices weight capacity to get small enough to travel with. Here you get the smaller pack size without giving up room for a passenger or a loaded dry bag.
A full kit, not just a board
Depending on the kit, NANO ZIP AIR ships with the board, fins, a manual pump and carry bag, with a paddle, leash, electric pump and dry bag available as you move up the kit tiers.
X-WOVEN FUSION construction
The deck print looks like wood, but the board is X-WOVEN FUSION with an internal stringer, built to hold 20 PSI without the board bowing under your weight.
Small enough to bring along
At 17.4 lbs for the board alone and a fold-in-half pack size, it's built for paddlers who don't want to give up trunk space or check a bag to bring a board along.

Who is this perfect for?
Travellers and small-space storage
The fold-in-half pack size fits where a standard inflatable roll won't.
Paddlers who want capacity
325 lbs is the highest rating of any Taiga inflatable, with room for a passenger or gear.
Apartment and condo owners
A board that packs down to roughly the size of a large duffel bag is easier to store in a closet or a car trunk than a hard board or a standard-roll inflatable.
