Naish Maliko Light

Delivery: 2-3 Weeks

Naish Maliko Light inflatables are designed with no compromise - they are made to win races. Their design is inspired from  multiple world title-winning Maliko hard boards. Their nose slices through water and drag is extremely reduced to assure they go as fast as possible.

With the same outline as the Maliko Fusion’s, the Maliko Light’s feature single-layer construction with a carbon deck and bottom stringer, but utilize a single-layer dropstitch material. This construction reduces weight, but increases puncture resistance, durability, and to a degree, overall stiffness, making the Maliko Light a better choice only for lighter riders. The Maliko inflatables are designed to be the fastest inflatable race SUP in the world — no compromises.

Drawing DNA from its World Title winning composite counterpart, these long and narrow boards are made to go fast with extreme efficiency. Naish achieved this by making these boards with a carbon stringer that runs the length of the board on both the top and bottom. These stringers paired with the recommended 21 PSI make the Maliko inflatable the stiffest in the world and minimize any excessive bending or unnecessary rocker caused by rider weight and produces superior speed.

Overall speed and efficiency are also complemented by the Hydroslick edges which create a clean release of water off the tail.

The Maliko inflatables also feature several grab handles for easy grab-and-go racing scenarios with beach run sections, and make getting in and out of the water, even on slippery surfaces, faster and easier than ever. For paddlers who want the fastest possible board with the convenience of an inflatable, the Maliko’s simply can’t be beat!

Malikos are equipped with US fin boxes and come with a race fin, butterfly screw and Phillips head screw (for lower drag) to give you unlimited options to customize your fin design depending on conditions.
