FunWater Inflatable Ultra-Light Stand Up Paddle Board for All Skill Levels with Premium SUP Paddleboard Accessories,Non-Slip Comfort Deck for Youth & Adults

Why did you pick this product vs others?:We wanted something fun for the water for our recent cabin stay. This was PERFECT! It didn't take long to inflate and the pump DOES work, but not until it can register the psi. Don't panic, just keep pumping ;) The price was the main reason I bought this. It was 45% off! Ease of transport:Everything comes in a handy bag, not the best quality, but it works. Very convenient.Sturdiness:It was extremely sturdy, it didn't feel like this was inflated.

**After a few times using it, I've added some updates**I recently met up with some friends who were here on vacation staying in a lakeside cabin. We wanted to go kayaking, but I don't have racks on my car right now, so I couldn't take mine with me and ended up having to spend $$ on rentals for a few hours over the course of the weekend. A couple of them had SUP's and one just used hers to sit on and paddle around the lake, and I thought that would be a perfect alternative, so I ordered this one the next day!I got to try it out lastnight (which was the first time I've EVER been on a paddleboard), and it is perfect! It is VERY stable and VERY fun! I both sat and kneeled on it (I even went to the kneeling position in the middle of the lake with wind and choppy waves and felt completely stable moving around on it), It seems to be of good quality, it's very pretty and for the money was a perfect choice for me! I love the versatility... I can sit, kneel or stand. Can't do that in my kayak.A few things:-** So far the only thing I've found that I wish it had was D-rings along the side. I bring both my SUP and Kayak paddles for sitting, standing or kneeling, and found clips to hold the extra paddle. I'd love to put them along the side of the board, but there are no D-rings.- This thing SMELLS when you first open it and for a little while after. If strong smells bother you, I'd suggest opening it outside. **The smell dissipates quickly after the first use.-The design (I got the pink) is super cute! Way more so than the pictures show!-The clips for the fins were just randomly laying throughout the box. I actually found one by chance wedged under a box flap, so be careful! I didn't know what they were until I went to put the fins on lastnight and saw the channels for the clips. Thank goodness I keep EVERYTHING until I know it's going to work. The fins were also a little difficult to get on... hopefully this gets easier with time, or maybe putting them on before inflating will help. **The fins slide in super easy after the first couple of uses. The clips however, do not. One of them is actually bent and cracked, I don't think these will hold up long at all.-When you let the air out, it goes hard and fast! Don't put your face right over it! This thing made my fan spin in my living room and it wasn't even under it!-The inflation valve has a stem in it, like a lot of valves. What I didn't know is that if you turn it, it opens and closes the valve to keep the air in or let it out. I found this out the hard way when I took my pump off and my board immediately flattened and I had to start all over again (oops!)- The paddle seems very sturdy and made of good material. It doesn't feel cheep in your hands and is easy to hold on to. We'll see how it holds up since many reviews say it's not great. **It's cumbersome to use if you are sitting. I bring my kayak paddle with me for that.-The pump... There is a lot of discussion about this in the reviews. It takes A LOT of pumps to get this thing inflated to the proper PSI. You will be pumping a LOT before it even starts to register on the gauge. Keep going. It'll get there. It's not broken, it does work. Just keep pumping. I did buy an adapter so I could use my battery operated compressor. I pumped it by hand until the gauge started registering and then set my compressor to the proper PSI and let it go the rest of the way. It also made getting ready easy, because I could get the rest of my stuff together while it was finishing inflating.- The bag... It's quite big. I can fit everything that came in it with lots of room to spare. I could throw towels, clothes and more in with it. It's a good size. I do wish it had pockets along the side (inside) or elastic to hold the paddle and pump so they don't bang together, but overall it does it's job. It is also a backpack style bag for easier carrying. I haven't used this feature yet, but I can see it coming in handy when you need to walk a little ways to get to the water.Overall it's super fun to use and a great buy. Next time I am going to take my kayak paddle with me for sitting. But overall I would 100% recommend.

Nice board and durable quality. Easy to inflate and store. Never used a paddle board before so this one is a bit smaller and harder to learn on. It is easy to tip over but that is from lack of experience. I have another board that is longer and wider, so it is much easier to use for a new rider like me. This is a nice set-up though and good for the price. I have no issues with board only my riding skills.

I was thrilled with the first FunWater Inflatable Ultra-Light Stand Up Paddle Board, so I recently bought two of them, one for my wife and one for me. I bought my first paddle board approximately ten years ago, and it almost cost $1,000 with all the attachments. This is my second paddle board. We now have nearly equal size, shape, and, most importantly, quality in these paddle boards at a fraction of that price.Multiple ropes and D-rings on top of the board make it simple to secure extras like a foldable chair. Even on windy days, the three bottom fins offer outstanding stability. All the necessary accessories, such as a dry bag for your phone, are included with each board, ensuring that you are prepared for a full day of sailing.This paddle board's minimal weight is one of its best qualities. Its extreme portability is a major benefit. With this board, I can park anywhere and just bring it to the water instead of having to park close to the launch place as I typically do. To carry other necessities like a water bottle and my car keys, I also purchased a mesh bag. It's also very comfortable to kneel while passing boats generate waves because of the thick top pad.The paddle is about three inches shorter than I would like, but that is the only drawback I can think of. Since I'm 5'10", I would love it to be a little longer, but this is just a matter of taste as I'm not a competitive paddle boarder. The paddle is well-made. Even so, an extended paddle would be a nice addition.People are often surprised to learn the price of the board I used for paddle boarding in Palm Beach, Florida. Purchasing this board is a no-brainer if you intend to go paddle paddling frequently, as it is only around twice as much as a one-day rental in my area.The stability of this board in comparison to my older, far more expensive one is what really surprises me. It's lighter, but it moves more quickly, and I've fallen less with it. It's remarkably sturdy even in mildly turbulent seas from boat traffic. For novice and intermediate paddlers of any age, this board is ideal. Regardless of your weight or body type, it is long enough to keep your balance but light enough to carry comfortably. I heartily endorse it!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:So far, this looks like an amazing purchase for the price. I don't know why I didn't get an inflatable paddle board earlier! My traditional solid/hard paddle board is heavy, bulky, and needs to be hoisted on top of the car roof (where it is too long) or be hauled with a trailer. The inflatable is super lightweight , is easy to carry in the included backpack-style bag, and is super easy to inflate. And once inflated, it feels like a solid/hard paddle board. Although still new, I have a feeling its durability will good as well. Very happy with this purchase.
