HIKS SUP Inflatable Stand Up Paddle Board Set Inc Paddle, Pump, Backpack & Leash Suitable all Abilities Ideal Beginners Paddle-board Kit…

At 10 ft long and 4 inches thick this board is great for smaller people. At 14 stone and 5'11 I am too big for it. It dips into the water in the middle and feels very unstable on the sea in any kind of waves. I went for the slightly more expensive 10'6" - 6' thick board which is perfect for me.However the smaller board is perfect for my wife and kids with the added bonus that it is smaller and lighter to carry out of the water.Generally these boards seem to be very well made - strong and light - with a good padded foot area, a useful netted bungee area at the front and good strong eyelets at the front and halfway down (for a removable kayak seat) which are very useful for tying down to the car roof! The colour scheme/graphics are basic but I would rather have a solid board than flashy graphics.They are fairly easy and quick to pump up (about 10 mins with the supplied pump) but getting them up the last few PSI to 15psi is hard work! (The bigger board has a slighly different pump that seems to be a bit easier) The air inlet valve looks to be good quality and sturdy but make sure it is in the right position before you start pumping otherwise all your precious hard work will whoosh out in about 5 seconds when you undo the pump. The paddle is basic but adequate. The leash is cheap but adequate and easily replaced with a coiled alternative.The only let downs were the quality of the pump and the backpack bag. One of the pump handles snapped off on first use with the force needed to get the board up to 15psi (not good) and one of the straps on the backpack came off at the bottom after a couple of carries. But overall for the price I'm happy that I got a good quality board at the cost of some cheaper accessories. Company seems very responsive as well.Update to the above 10/09/19: Sent a request for a new pump and backpack to HIKS through Amazon and had an immediate reply and replacements in the post the next day. Replaced under warranty apparently so very happy with the service.

A great bit of kit for leisure paddlers.Remember, though, there pump will only start registering any pressure once you reach about 10psi. Before that and you'll think the pump is faulty.It's easy to pump at first but gets tougher as you approach 10/12psi so that's when you know that it's inflated enough.If it's easy pumping then carry on.A very solid board, fairly stable and enough kit to get you going.Everything fits easily into the back and isn't especially heavy when you carry it all as a backpack.A great board, great kit and a great price.

Really well made board. Perfect size. Great colour.The pump only has one single pump function so it’s gets tough towards the end. The bag is the best I’ve seen so really easy to get board out and put back in. I will probably buy another ankle strap for it as the one supplied is material not a plastic cord.Haven’t had a chance to use it on the water yet and we’re currently on lockdown.My only grumble is that it already had a few scrapes and glue marks on straight out the packaging.

The media could not be loaded. This was my first SUP so I had a lot of questions about which board would be best for me for my size, fitness level, where I would be paddling and ability to travel with it. The seller replied to my questions via telephone within 10 minutes of receiving my e-mail. They spent a significant amount of time providing advice and information. I took all of that on and bought this board. It arrived on time and in excellent condition. I have left it inflated for 4 days at 15psi and it has not let out any air at all I have been out twice in the sea. I live in Portsmouth and we get some pretty strong currents and crosswinds rather than large waves. The board was very firm and stable even with passengers on the back. I am a complete beginner so cannot really comment on maneuverability but I was able to turn around boats and bouys despite the current and the wind and an adult passenger on the back. The board is excellent quality for the price which comes at the expense of the accessories. The pump and paddle work well but you can tell that all of the money has gone on the board, which the seller told me themselves on the phone, but frankly were still better quality than I was expecting and have seen elsewhere. I cannot rate this board enough! It is the best money I have ever spent. At only 12kg I will be taking it with me to Indonesia in a few months and we are considering buying a second one.

Easy to set up/ pack away. Very light weight and easy to carry in provided bag that also has side compartments for paddles and pump. 10/10 for value for money haven't had an issue so far.

For a first time user of a paddle board I researched into the best for my budget and after going out on it today I am not disappointed. I was expecting a real struggle pumping it but after about 10/15 mins it was at full inflation. Looks great and feels value for money. Instructions easy to follow. Would definitely recommend the board…..bring in more fun on the water.

Wow wow wow!!!! After looking at lots of boards online this board really appealled to me! I'm 5 foot 2 and wanted a board that I could fit one or both my daughter's on if needed. The board came quicker than expected. It comes in a really nice zip rucksack carry bag. The pump is the best hand pump, I have another board (different brand) and the pump is useless. This pump is really easy and smooth to use.So we took the board out for its first journey and I LOVE it!!! It's stable, easy to move. It's brilliant where it's the 6 inch depth as it makes it more stable. Both my girls came on and it didn't dip/bend or affect the stability of the board. The paddle is really nice. I love this board. My cousin ended up buying the 10 foot 6 one as I was so pleased with mine. Would highly recommend this board and brand!
