Gladiator SUP Elite iSUP Range Overview 2022 SUPboarder

In this video Reuben gives you an overview of the Elite range from Gladiator SUP.
The Elite range is the top end range of iSUPs from Gladiator. Made from the best lightweight materials, and with the best performance shapes and accessories designed to get you paddling even faster. All 12 boards in the range have a longer cruising/racing profile (ranging from 11’2 to 14’) so the range is best suited to those paddlers wanting a bit more performance from their iSUP. It is the most expensive range from Gladiator SUP but still great value for money, with the iSUP package including a full carbon 3 piece paddle, glass fibre honeycomb US box fin, wheeled backpack, quality pump and leash.
To find out which Gladiator SUP range and board might best suit you, also check out the Origin and Pro range overview videos as well as the other specialist wind, whitewater, fishing and multi person SUPs on the Gladiator SUP website.

Additional info…. 1/05/22
At the time these Gladiator range overview videos were filmed (several months ago), SUPboarder was informed Gladiator was a Latvian registered company and at that point the team didn’t look any further into it. More recently, following the start of the conflicts in Ukraine, and online discussions following the videos becoming live, SUPboarder has done further research to understand the background and ownership of the brand.
Our research shows that Gladiator is a Latvian registered company, with Iurii Dunin being the owner who lives in Latvia with Latvian residency, Originally born in Russia. The boards are made in a Chinese factory that is owned by Iurii with the help of Aquatech Solutions Limited who are the investment capital from Hong Kong .
SUPboarder organised these reviews in autumn 2021 with FC UP, the UK distributor of the brand (a UK company) who manage a lot of the product development and marketing of the brand. Gladiator is not a direct sale brand, and therefore has many distribution partners around the world.
