Great iSUP

We initially bought one to test out but we quickly came back to buy a second one (for wife) & then later a third one (for grandkids) because it is so much fun & such a great value. We have years of experience canoeing & kayaking but SUPing was new. As we age, sitting for an extended period hurts so being able to stand while adventuring in the water is awesome! IMHO, these BOTE SUPs track well & are relatively heavy duty. They hold us well even at 11-12psi, though they can be inflated to 15psi. For reference, I am 5’10” 172# & wife is 5’7” & weighs much less than me. ; ) We have no problem with stability in any stage from sitting to kneeling though positioning ourselves just below the middle handle seems to be the sweet spot for standing. I’ve never lost balance & fell off but my wife has twice, but gracefully…there is a learning curve that takes a little practice to build confidence (second trip out for me) but the reward comes when you realize you’re actually getting a full body workout while having a great time doing it. Might want to invest in a good electric pump. However, the included manual pump works well but significantly adds to the workout factor. (FYI, keep pumping even when SUP feels firm…trust the gauge on the pump). Also, read manual pump instructions included on the pump housing. The little plug attached on side of pump has a very important function to make user’s life MUCH easier…install plug for initial use & remove it once you hit 3-7 psi to achieve the higher pressure needed (10-15 psi).

Great paddleboard

Great inflatable paddleboard, especially for the price. A well known brand at a price that you can't beat. Ready to go out of the box, comes with everything you need including a storage bag. Great quality. Inflates quickly. The weight description on the box was slightly different, it recommended weight limit of 225 pounds with max weight of 275 pounds.

Love the convenience for transporting the inflatable gives, and the board is stable and easy to ride. I was disappointed to see after 5 uses the deck padding, which you stand on is already starting to seperate and peel up in several spots. I was hoping to get several years of regular use out of this, but it seems like every time it is rolled up for transport or storage, that puts a strain on the glued deck pad material.
