Infinity Blackfish 2024 – 14’ Flatdeck

All-Water Speed. Sprint Power. Elite Control.

The Infinity Blackfish Flatdeck is a modern classic — the go-to all-round raceboard used by world champions and everyday paddlers alike. Fast, stable and incredibly versatile, it's a board that excels in flatwater, ocean chop, surf races and sprints, making it one of the most complete race designs ever produced.

Now in the new Ghost White 2024 colourway, it looks as fast as it feels.

From Infinity: A New Evolution of a Legend

For 2024, Dave Boehne has re-engineered the Blackfish with a completely new approach to construction and hydrodynamics.

Team Elite Carbon Construction

The EPS core is wrapped with a full PVC shell before being laminated in carbon — resulting in:

• Lighter weight

• Increased durability

• A stiffer, livelier ride

• The best strength-to-weight ratio Infinity has ever achieved

Infinity boards have always been known for premium quality; this generation raises the bar again.

Why the Blackfish is a World Champion

The Blackfish is the original hybrid planing-hull raceboard — a design that changed the industry. Its signature shape has won multiple world titles, sprint championships, flatwater distances and open-ocean races under the feet of athletes like:

Candice Appleby • Shae Foudy • Itzel Delgado • Juliette Duhaime • Tyler Bashor • Bernd Roediger • Kai Lenny

Its reputation is simple: the fastest board off the line, the most stable in all conditions, and the one-board quiver for real-world racing.

What’s New in 2024

Completely Redesigned Nose

The first major nose redesign since the Blackfish launched.

• Taller & sharper entry

• More pronounced peak

• Looks “upside down” — by design

• Stabs through upwind chop with less resistance

• Silent and efficient in flatwater

Result: better upwind speed + better flatwater glide.

Updated Bottom Shape

A refined hybrid planing hull with:

• Rolled entry

• Inverse V panel

• Clean release off a flat tail exit

Soft, rounded entry rails slip through the water for effortless glide and explosive sprint speed. Infinity describes the feel as:

“Like skipping a stone.”

Flatdeck = Freedom + Control

The Flatdeck version features a clean, open platform with only a shallow 1.5” recess. This gives you:

• Maximum width under your stance

• Easy foot adjustment and movement

• Ideal control in surf zones

• A simple, intuitive feel on the water

If you move around the board often, navigate beach starts, or paddle mixed conditions — this is the layout you want.

Who Is the 2024 Blackfish For?

This board suits paddlers who want:

• One board for all conditions

• Elite-level speed without instability

• A raceboard that’s equally fun for fitness paddling

• Sprint power, surf agility, and flatwater glide in one shape

If your local conditions vary — or you simply want the most capable raceboard in the Infinity lineup — the Blackfish Flatdeck is it.
