Byron 9'8 Highlights
Smaller paddlers will love the light and nimble feel of the board that fits them perfectly without compromising materials or quality. The true all-rounder shape coupled with 4.7" thickness makes it look and feel like a hardboard without all the hassles for the paddler who wants one board to do it all.
The Byron 9'8 is perfect for the smaller paddler. A scaled-down Byron that comes in a 9'8 x 31 x 4.7" will suit anyone less than 75 kg or 165 lbs and shorter than 175cm or 5'8. The Byron is a true all-rounder iSUP designed to deliver confidence in any situation. If you can only have one board, grab a Byron.
Weighing in at just 7.6 Kg, while feeling like a hardboard on the water, is what sets this board apart. The Byron 9'8 comes with our heavy-duty Bag Pack, leash and tooless centre fin that easily clicks into place. You can then choose to bundle in the pump and/or paddle of your choice, allowing you to fine-tune your SUP package to your exact needs.
The Byron is crafted with our industry-leading X-Woven & Fused drop-stitch material with our triple-bonded rails. The combination of high pressure, reinforced rails, and 4.7" thickness produces a stable iSUP with hardboard-like performance while still managing to be the lightest in its category...

4 YEAR TOTAL CARE WARRANTY
We will repair or replace your board, new-for-old, if there are any manufacturing issues within the first four years, including loose seams, faulty valves, or traction pad delamination.
X-WOVEN & FUSED DROP STITCH
Multiple layers of woven drop stitch are fused during the manufacturing process, where the polyester threads running through the vinyl are crisscrossed, similar to carbon fibre, making it light & stiff.
TRIPLE BONDED RAILS
Found on the Bondi, Byron and Fairlight, this rail construction adds stiffness and durability to the boards. Quite simply, where standard boards have two rail layers, Honu has three.
UNIVERSAL FIN SYSTEM
A universal fin system allows the paddler to try different fins to fine-tune the board's performance across various conditions. It also allows for quick replacement should the need arise.
TEXTURED DIAMOND TRACTION
Combining the tactile feel of a diamond grove with the grip of an alligator pattern provides the paddler with a confidence-inspiring platform that feels soft yet solid underfoot.
이동과 셋업이 간편해서 좋아요. 밝은 색상, 귀엽게 작은 만큼 능동적인 움직임이 가능해서 어디에서든 눈에 띄어요.
It's light-weight enough that I can carry it with one hand. I am 5'2" and LOVE how agile the board is. Took it out to the ocean a few times already and love the experience!
great board
we are really happy
thanks Mark
I had never used Honu products, but after doing a TON of research on boards, materials made to build them and the differences in specs, I decided to go with Honu. I couldn't be happier. All the previous boards I used were okay in the water but a pain for me to carry around due to the size. I'm an average sized female, but some boards were just awkwardly too big for me to carry. The Byron 9'8 is the absolute perfect size for me, and I'm so happy with my purchase. The board is great quality and an absolute gem in the water, the paddle and it's adjustability is outstanding, and the pump had the board filled up in half the time it took the other folks I was with. New Honu fan for life.
Perfect for me😊! Feels quite stable. The size guide was so helpful. Love the color, the sturdiness of the board.
Easy to carry! Just plain AMAZING!
