Meet the JoyRide XL — The Ultimate Confidence Board
The Hydrus JoyRide XL (11’6” × 34”) is the most stable all-around inflatable board we’ve ever built.
It’s the perfect choice for paddlers who want confidence, comfort, and capacity — without losing speed or glide.
Designed for families, fishing, yoga, and all-around adventure, the XL is built for stability but engineered with the same Armalight Air™ technology that makes every Hydrus board perform at the highest level.
Despite its extra width and capacity, the JoyRide XL speed tests identically to the standard JoyRide — proving that you don’t have to trade stability for performance.
“Both boards are fast — the XL just adds confidence and room to spare.”
Why JoyRide XL Excels
1️⃣ Armalight Air™ + X-Woven Core — Hydrus Innovation
-
3-Layer Fusion Composite Shell — heat-fused, not glued, for superior stiffness
-
X-Woven Drop Stitch Core — the stiffest inflatable structure available
-
Welded Seams — permanently bonded, not chemically glued
-
Pressure-Tested to 25 PSI (rides best at 12–15 PSI, max performance at 15psi)
Hydrus inflatables are built stronger and stiffer than typical boards, creating the feel of a hardboard with the versatility of an inflatable.
2️⃣ Maximum Stability Without Compromise
-
11'6" × 34" footprint offers unmatched balance and control
-
Hydrus Rocker Profile maintains identical glide and speed to the JoyRide
-
SoftGrip Deck Pad for all-day comfort, yoga, or fitness paddling
-
Control Stomp Pad at the tail for easier pivot turns and maneuvering
3️⃣ Adventure-Ready Design
-
13 D-Rings for gear, coolers, kids, or fishing setups
-
Hydrus click-in fin system with 9” touring fin + 4.5” flexible river fin
-
Ergo Carry Handles (center + sides) for easy portage
-
Folds into a heavy-duty Hydrus Mothership Backpack for easy travel and storage
