What is Drop Stitch Tech?
Drop stitch technology utilises thousands of internal stitches that attach the layers of your SUP, kayak, or canoe together and prevent any balloon-like bulging. This gives an even distribution of pressure and an ability to inflate to a higher pressure, giving you a more rigid feel.
