Too Much Stoke, Not Enough Stock

Too Much Stoke, Not Enough Stock

2025 has been a big year for Honu — more paddlers than ever have joined the Honu Clan, and that’s something we’re incredibly grateful for.

But with global trade still unpredictable, we took a cautious approach to inventory earlier this year. In retrospect, it seems we may have been overly cautious, as our most popular paddleboards and paddles have been consistently flying off the shelves at a rate that surpasses our ability to efficiently restock them.

Currently Sold Out:

  • Seaton 10'8
  • Bondi 9'5
  • Evo Bamboo Paddles

Running Low — Expected to Sell Out during November:

  • Byron 10'6
  • Byron 9'8
  • Bondi 8'8
  • Sorrento 11'3
  • Evolution Carbon paddles

Production for the next shipment is already underway, but new stock won’t arrive until January–February 2026.

We know this is disappointing for paddlers hoping to hit the water, especially for the Aussie summer, and we’re genuinely sorry if you miss out. The good news? 2026 is shaping up to be our biggest year yet — with new designs, new gear, and new adventures on the horizon.
If you’ve had your eye on a Honu board, now’s the time to grab one before they’re gone.

It’s the ocean that unites us — and we can’t wait to paddle into 2026 together.
