Features & Specs
The Rackham Aero has evolved and is now even more versatile than before. We’ve created a revolutionary stand-up paddle board that can transform into a sit-down kayak or pedal-powered vessel in a matter of minutes.
New for 2022
Spring-Loaded Kick-Up Rudder System
Located at the rear of the board, this system ensures that your rudder won’t get damaged when moving over shallow water or debris and also allows for easy storage.
Removable Aero Paddle Seat
Our patent-pending Aero Paddle Seat technology custom-built to fit the Rackham Aero to convert it from stand-up paddle board to sit-on-top kayak.
APEX Pedal Drive + Rudder System Compatible
We pushed the boundaries and evolved the Rackham Aero to be the stand-up paddle board sibling to the LONO Aero by making it a pedal drive compatible watercraft.
Intuitive Rudder System Controls
Our innovative rudder control system works like you’d expect it to. Left to go left, right to go right. Plus, it can be mounted on either side of your Rackham Aero Paddle Seat, making it convenient for both leftys and rightys.
MAGNEPOD™ Compatible
Compatible with our MAGNEPOD magnetic drinkware and accessory retention system.
