Is this the best race board ever? No, ’cause the best race SUP are rigid. But this is the closest you will get to a rigid race SUP
Description
This a game changer in inflatable race boards. If you’re looking to go faster than you ever have before and win the races you’ve only ever dreamed of racing. If you’re looking for glide like you’ve never experienced on an inflatable race board. This is the board for you.
We’ve spent 12 months designing this board, and have used computer modelling software to precision engineer the best glide possible from an iSUP. First of its kind to have a fully flush removable fin box. That means drag from the box has been totally eliminated, and it means that the board can roll up to 30% smaller than other inflatable race boards with carbon stringers.
The deck is reinforced with twin carbon stringers, and a double density deckpad. This, combined with German technology cross weave drop stitch means that there is no stiffer 14ft board out there.
And with a 28PSI pressure guarantee, there is zero flex of the board further reducing drag and improving glide. Finally, the tailstrip increases paddling efficiency by reducing wasted energy from the surface tension on the tail.
Multiple perfectly balanced deck handles make running with the board on and off the water much easier while saving you a few very crucial seconds in the heat of the race.

I’ve had the Go Race board for over a year now, so feel able to give a comprehensive review. This was an upgrade from my previous 14′ x 27″ race iSUP and the difference in build quality, rigidity & stability was very noticeable. The McConks is built like a tank! The attention to detail is very good too, such as the ability to unclip the bungees from the front & back and the neoprene on the handles. At 20psi, there is hardly any flex, even when I was a bit chunky at 15 & a half stone. The carbon stringer must help here. The downside of that though, is the fact that the slight v shape to the hull is lost. Once on the water, the board is very stable for a race board. It may take a few outings to get used to it, if moving from a 30″ or 32″ board but once moving, you won’t notice much difference. It is even stable when doing pivot turns. It is fast too. Obviously not as fast as a hard board or something like a Starboard Airline but, in the right hands, it is capable of winning races.
I have to mention the finbox though. I can see what Andy has tried to do and it is great to think differently. The finbox sits flush to the bottom of the board, in an attempt to reduce drag. Does it work? I have to say, the jury is out on that. I find it quite hard to get it to sit 100% snug to the board, leaving a small gap which must create drag. I often find weed in there too. It is also a bit of a faff to put in, having to velcro 2 parts together while inflating. When flush, it may reduce drag by a fraction but I do wonder if the effort put into fitting it is worth it. The board is also a bit heavy, when compared to other, similar sized iSUPs, though I doubt that affects performance on the water.
So overall, a fantastic, well made, fast & stable board. A couple of issues I’ve had have been dealt with swiftly, McConks’ customer service is just the best!

Thanks for the review Steve. Love it! And thanks for being honest. The jury is still out on the removable fin box for us too if we’re honest. We’re considering options for future versions!
