Matuli: A Michigan Stand Up Paddle Board Company

We are proud to announce that Matuli Boards are available now in St. Clair Shores  at Great Lakes Surf Shop .  Brian, the owner, is a SUP expert and on top of all the new paddle boarding trends.  If you live in the Metro Detroit area checking out his shop is a must. 

 

Most fresh water surfing is done when both the water and air are cold.  Last weeks many Michigan surfers go to enjoy relatively warm temperatures for a rare summer swell.   Chris Matulis was able to test the new Matuli soft top surfboard.

In Michigan there are endless places to go and see on a paddle board.  We wanted to have a board that we could take with us everywhere.  Most paddleboards are about 11 feet long and are not easy to transport.  You never know when you will have a extra half hour somewhere to go for a paddle.  With our inflatable sup, you can always keep a board in the trunk,of your car, or on your boat, ready for a Pure Michigan style adventure.   The boards inflate to 15 psi in about 5 min.   

Matuli  now has a high performance durable inflatable option for our Spring 2016 board lineup.  Inflatable SUP’s are perfect for rivers and for those who want the flexibility of not using a roof rack.   The boards are lightweight and can fit into a large backpack, when deflated.  Each board comes with a high pressure pump.

We have 2 designs a surf shape 10.6 and a displacement racing 12.6 design.

 

 

We had a great day at the Quiet Water Symposium in East Lansing , Michigan today!  What a great opportunity to connect with other water enthusiasts and reveal our 2016 Paddleboard and surfboard line.

The North American Auto Show was very exciting this year.  A lot of auto manufactures were using action/adventure sports to help showcase their new designs.   We were really excited to be a part of Ford’s  display.   Ford used the Matuli  Fresh 10.6 paddleboards as a backdrop for the Ford Explorer.

Last winter was very cold and the ice on Lake Michigan was constently changing.  We were able to meet up with friends and explore the ice up close.  Know your limits and always sup with a buddy and have a plan.

 

The river is flowing in East Lansing, Michigan.  We took this opportunity to test the new fin setup for the 2015 Matuli 8.8 soft board.

 

Our new Kids SUP was designed for boarders under 95 lbs.  This board features EVA foam bumpers around the board rails.   A wide square tail was added to increased stability.  Our kids board is 9 feet long and 25.5 inches wide.
