AT A GLANCE

  • 8'8 & 9'5 Sizes
  • 4" thick welded carbon rails
  • Twin + 1 flexible fin setup
  • Aggressive nose & tail rocker
  • New Honu SUPer bag-pack
  • Hardboard-like surfing performance

IDEAL FOR

Paddleboarders wanting a surf-specific SUP that can perform as close as possible to a fibreglass board. For those who want a capable board to take on far-flung surfing adventures. 

Bondi Highlights

Surf SUPers will love the shape and rocker line that produces a 4" thick board, emulating the performance generally expected from hardboards. A pure surfing SUP with a Twin+1 set of Volan fins and a hard rail edge that, combined, helps the paddler take off and turn with ease.

When setting out to design the new Bondi surfing SUP, the goal was to produce a no-compromise board that would perform as close as possible to a fibreglass equivalent. More than 18 months in development, the new Bondi is for the surfing purist, with every last detail, down to board-specific finboxes designed to produce a board capable of handling surf of any size with confidence.

Available in two sizes, 8'8 and 9'5 and just 4" thick, constructed with our X-woven material with Honu's exclusive Welded Carbon Rails. Both sizes feature an aggressive outline and rocker that is further enhanced by a hard rail edge that finishes just in front of the Volan keel fins. All working together to make steep take-offs and powerful bottom turns an easy undertaking.

SUP surfers will appreciate the time spent in developing the Futures-compatible fin system that includes performance fiberglass fins. The twin+1 setup is designed to provide the surfer with flexibility to tune the ride. Start with all three fins for the most stability, but removing the centre fin, leaving in the twin keels provides a fast and loose ride more advanced paddlers will love.

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.

WELDED 3K CARBON RAILS

Exclusive to Honu, this complex construction uses heat+pressure welding to fuse the inner rail with a 25mm strip. Then a 50mm 3K carbon rail is bonded under the outer rail layer for ultimate stiffness & durability.

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.

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.

This is one outstanding surfing iSUP... The new Bondi is a real ripper! We heard this board was coming about a year ago, from the Honu designer Mark Travers. So we’ve been eagerly waiting! He said it was going to be a new board to take inflatable SUP surfing to the next level. And now having used the Bondi, lets just say this board didn’t disappoint!

Having recently put the Bondi iSUP Surf board by HONU through a test drive, I’m excited to share my thoughts. This board stands out not just because it’s an inflatable board designed specifically for surfing – obviously offering the benefits of portability – but because it is evident that HONU CEO and designer Mark Travers is an engineer at heart, as the board features several premium exclusive innovations, particularly in the rails and fin department, which are real differentiators in the inflatable SUP surf segment.

Great product!

I brought my 8’8” Bondi to France from California. Easy to travel with, VERY well made, surfed well in small waves. Great value at a great price!!

Bondi 9’5” is Exceptional!

The Bondi 9’5” is an exceptional ISUP choice for paddlers seeking a versatile and high-performance board that balances stability with responsive turning capabilities. This board excels in various wave conditions and is rapidly boosting my wave count getting me the experience I need actually catching waves. A few standout features of the Bondi 9’5” include its adequate tail rocker, fully functional 2+1 fin setup, plus rail leading back to the tail. These combine to give surprising grip on the wave face and pretty inspiring bottom turns.

The narrower profile and overall stiffness make paddling out intuitive and efficient, a significant advantage for beginners and those looking to maximize their wave count.
Last but not least has been Honu’s outstanding customer service. I was given detailed guidance before purchase, helping me to choose the perfect model based on my preferences and experience level. Their follow-up after the purchase to ensure satisfaction when I lost a fin has set a new standard for customer care in the industry.

Whether you’re new to surfing, transitioning from other board sports, or just trying to catch waves without the hassle, the Bondi 9’5” offers a board that performs well in a portable easy-to-store ISUP package.

Soooo Much Fun!!

The Bondi 8'8 far exceeded my expectations. This board does it all, it's easy to catch small waves and get up on the nose. Take the centre fin out and it's party time! It loosens right up with sharp snappy turns and is still stable. This is a huge leap forward in iSUP design and technology and I believe it's the best on the market right now.

Great board - Great customer experience

Firstly I want to emphasise the great service that comes with being a customer at HONU. The personal touch and communication makes the overall online shopping experience more human and makes one just feel good.
Being a fan of high quality material of all sorts, I am very pleased by the quality of the full package ! Board, leash, fins, paddle (bought separately)and bags are of very high quality and lots of attention to detail
Tried the 9,5 on flat water so far and was amazed by the feel,stiffness and responsiveness of the board. Will be trying it in waves soon and looking forward to learn sup surfing with this board after 8 years of recreational paddle boarding on conventional good quality inflatable boards.
Thank you Mark ; )
