PERFORMANCE MEETS CONVENIENCE
From river-running and yoga, to multiday excursions and fishing, we've specifically shaped and designed our SUP boards for unique on-the-water performance. For 2019, we updated our boards with fresh graphics and a pressure relief valve to prevent over-inflation.

About NRS: Northwest River Supplies
In 1972, with only $2,000 in his personal savings, Bill Parks started Northwest River Supplies with one mission: to help others raft. 42 years later, Bill sold NRS to its employees. Today, the 100% employee-owned business strives to continue Bill’s legacy helping people pursue passions on the water. At our Moscow, Idaho headquarters you’ll find passionate water-lovers just like you, from rafters to whitewater kayakers, sea kayakers to stand up paddlers, kayak anglers to fly fishermen. Our lives, and livelihoods, are drawn to water.
