Limited Edition Smokey Bear SUP Board Unveiled

BEND, Oregon – Stand On Liquid, an industry-leading stand up paddleboard company, is the exclusive retailer for a limited edition Smokey Bear Air inflatable paddleboard package in honor of the iconic character’s 75th birthday. In addition to the 11’0” Smokey Bear Air paddleboard, the package includes a travel backpack, high pressure pump, three-piece adjustable fiberglass paddle, coil ankle leash, patch kit and an 8-inch fin.

Ten percent of the sales of Smokey Bear Air paddleboards will be donated to wildfire prevention programs by Smokey Zone, the Bend-based manufacturer of the boards.

“I grew up with Smokey Bear and his message of ‘only you can prevent wildfires,’” said Stand On Liquid owner Rob McDonald. “It’s a thrill to help play a small part in the 75th celebration of his legacy while also generating proceeds that benefit wildfire prevention.”

Designed by Stand On Liquid for all-around performance, the Smokey Bear Air inflatable paddleboard is adaptable to many uses including flatwater paddling, stand up surfing and SUP yoga. With a 32-inch wide and low-rocker outline, the Smokey Bear Air provides excellent stability for beginner and intermediate paddlers. The board graphics feature Smokey Bear’s face with the message, “please be careful.”

“Smokey Zone prides itself in producing the highest quality fire prevention products that help reduce the impact wildfires have on the places we live, work and play,” said Nolan Wilson, the owner of Smokey Zone. “We strive to produce products that both celebrate and protect our national forests, and the Smokey Bear Air captures our intention perfectly.”
