WHY BOTE

BOTE stands apart through industry-shaping innovation, fresh ideas and simplicity to create a product that defines a lifestyle. We create products that shake up the outdoor experience; designs that are edgy and unique; and content that's honest, real, and irreverent. We bring innovation and flavor to everything we do. BOTE can't be categorized as just a stand up paddle board company, because it's so much more. It's an experience, it's art.

Customizable Platform

The idea of building a simple "base" comes directly from our mission statement. We want to allow the paddler to create their own unique experience, their own unique board. All boards come "base" level. These boards provide the perfect canvas for adding accessories and building the perfect craft for your next adventure. BOTE is the only stand up paddle board brand to make boards with accessory integration systems that allow the paddler to "deck out" their boards.


YOU CAN DO THIS

We hear it all the time, "I could never do that!". The truth is, with a BOTE, you can. A little balance, a desire to be on the water, and a willingness to try something new is all it takes. We give people of all walks of life an enjoyable experience on the water by creating products with the perfect combination of stability, speed, and innovation.

Gatorshell Technology

Years in the making, our new Gatorshell Technology is poised to be the next game changing innovation to be introduced by the Darkroom gurus at BOTE. In our quest to constantly improve upon the products we make, we’ve achieved something truly special. Incredibly strong and stunningly beautiful, our new line of Gatorshell boards are the toughest we’ve ever made.


AERO TECHNOLOGY

The technology behind our AeroBOTEs is second to none. BOTE inflatable paddle boards transform from a form factor small enough to fit in a backpack into a fully functional SUP in minutes. Don’t worry about scratches and dings because the military-grade PVC skin is virtually indestructible. The inner core of our AeroBOTEs has tens of thousands of composite fibers that connect the top and bottom halves of the board and when under pressure create solid board rigidity.
