If you have been searching for Sea Gods inflatable paddle boards lately or just noticed the website looks a bit different, you are not alone. Here is a clear, factual summary of what has changed based on public information.
Ownership Transition
The original founders, Mandy and Ryan Johnston (based in British Columbia, Canada), have fully exited the business. The brand’s assets were transferred to new ownership in late 2025.
Location and Operations
Sea Gods was originally a Canadian company with a physical presence in White Rock, BC. The White Rock store closed in 2024. The brand now appears to operate primarily with a U.S. focus. The official website (seagods.com) describes the boards as “Designed in the USA,” lists a U.S. phone number for support, and highlights free shipping on qualifying orders to the United States. (As of February 2026, any formal headquarters move to the USA is inferred from current website content and may change.)
Current Status
The brand continues under the new owners and is offering pre-orders for a 2026 collection, including limited runs (125 units each) of some classic/previous designs. They are working on new boards, gear, and apparel.
Customer Notes
Several independent review sites (including SUPBoardGuide and InflatableBoarder) have paused recommendations for Sea Gods products as of early 2026, citing difficulties getting clear answers on customer service and warranty support after the ownership change.
If you were hoping to buy or service a Sea Gods board, the best next step is to visit the official website directly for the most up-to-date information on availability, pre-orders, and support.
