The Carmanah - Old Growth

The Carmanah Hardboard – A Tribute to the Pacific Northwest, Built to Explore

New for 2025, The Carmanah is a paddle board with deep roots in the Pacific Northwest. Named for the towering giants of the Carmanah Valley, its Old Growth silhouette and bold lines pay homage to one of the West Coast’s most precious and pristine forests.

Designed with a classic touring shape, The Carmanah slices through coastal chop while its higher volume keeps you and your gear elevated, gliding effortlessly across open water. It’s built for those who seek to explore farther - whether it’s a day trip along rugged shorelines or a loaded down expedition into hidden coves.

Every detail balances performance and artistry:

• Triple-layer, high-density crosshatch deck pad for lasting comfort and grip on long paddles.

• 6-point bungee system for securing your gear without compromising space or balance.

• Charcoal oak wood veneer contrasted with bold artwork and clean lines, reflecting the rugged beauty of the PNW.

The Carmanah isn’t just built for the journey—it’s inspired by the land and seascapes that define it.
