PHOENIX
The Phoenix is a mini simmons inspired SUP designed by Dave Boehne and Infinity team rider – Simmons enthusiast Chris Hill… Fast, stable, and a fun fishy ride.

The popularity of this design has been unreal and has evolved into 4 specific designs making up the most comprehensive “simmons” style SUP line up available. The Phoenix are short, wide, and carry more volume than your typical board. This allows a rider to go much shorter than ever thought possible while maintaining fantastic stability and paddle speed. Automatically take 1ft + off of the length of your current board. The straighter outline and wide tail allow the board to have automatic speed from take off and get the board up and planning on it’s own. We match that up with a twin and/or quad set up for unmatched speed and maneuverability. We use the ProBox fin system exclusively on the Phoenix adding to the boards versatility and unmatched custom options.
15 PHOENIX V1 Version 1 is the original and the one that started it all. This board is a great place to start for guys venturing into smaller SUP’s. The “V1” is super stable and the highest volume of the bunch. Rolled belly hull entry blended into a specific “tear” drop style concave between the fins. We recommend this model in a twin fin set up for maximum speed and the fun skatey feel we all enjoy in small gutless surf. This board is also very fun to paddle flat water with the family.
We have developed signature “Phoenix” keel twin fins and quad sets with Larry Allison which makes the Phoenix stand out from all the rest. There has been endless R&D from Larry Allison, Chris Hill and Dave Boehne on this project to get us where we are today and the results speak for themselves.
