The Gladiator Elite 11'2 has been designed for shorter and lighter riders looking for a performance all-round paddleboard.
As part of Gladiator's performance all-round range, the 11'2 sits alongside the 11'4 and 11'6 models, allowing paddlers to choose a board that suits their height, weight, and paddling style.
Built with a 4.7" construction, the 11'2 provides lower volume, helping lighter riders achieve a better connection to the water. By sitting lower in the waterline, the board delivers improved stability, control, responsiveness, and paddling efficiency for riders under 5'6". This lower-volume design is particularly beneficial for lighter paddlers, allowing the board to perform as intended without the excess volume often found in traditional 6" constructions.
Constructed using Gladiator's advanced machine-woven dropstitch technology, the Elite range delivers exceptional stiffness and efficiency whilst reducing overall board weight. Combined with Gladiator's Triple Rail Edge construction, the result is a highly responsive board that feels fast, stable, and confidence-inspiring on the water.
Suitable for riders up to 100 kg, the 11'2 is ideal for exploring flat and choppy waterways, family paddles, older children wanting their own board, and riders looking to enjoy small surf. A rear kick pad improves control during step-back turns and manoeuvres.
Supplied with Gladiator's premium 3-piece carbon paddle featuring a Hexcut anti-twist connection system and efficient touring blade, the Elite package is designed to maximise performance both on and off the water.
Combining advanced construction, size-specific design, and all-round performance, the Gladiator Elite 11'2 is built for riders who want a board that fits them properly.
