Inflatable stand up paddle board reviews, comparisons and paddling adventures
The manual hand pumps that come with inflatable stand up paddle boards work quite well but an electric pump makes the process of getting on the water a whole lot easier! NIXY offers this great electric pump that can inflate your board up to 20 PSI, allowing you to conserve your energy for paddling. This […]
It is important to have a PFD out with you when stand up paddle boarding, in many places it is the law and you can get fined if you don’t have one with you. However a regular life jacket can feel restrictive when on a SUP and limit your movement. I also find that a […]
The Dynamo has become my go-to board for those times when I want to cover more distance with more speed. I find the Dynamo to be one of those all around functional and convenient touring boards that is so easy to love. It has a nice tapered nose, two lengths to choose from, a 30” […]
The Hero SUP Spark is a really cool board for a few reasons: 1. It is fun to paddle, extremely portable and quite versatile. 2. It comes with a high-end accessory package all included in the price. 3. The length to width ratio (10’5″ x 31″) makes it very responsive, you will find it takes […]

Airhead SUP has a new electric pump out and it is a good one. I have been using this pump for several months now and have been nothing but happy with it. If you use your inflatable SUP often then you will likely get tired of pumping with the manual pump quickly and want to […]
If you SUP with your Pup it is important to keep them protected with a good flotation vest. Not only will a life jacket keep your dog safe if either of you should fall overboard or if your dog jumps in, but it will also help you get your dog back on your board afterwords. […]
The Gili Air is a new board to hit the market and we really like the look, design and features that this ISUP offers. It is a perfect starter board that won’t break the bank. It is ideal for light touring, cruising on flat water lakes or rivers and it plows through chop and wake […]
The Red Paddle Co inflatable SUP’s have changed a lot over the years and I was excited to see and test out their new updated 2018 lineup of boards. The Voyager is a larger touring board that replaced their Explorer ISUP that I reviewed a few years back. At 12’6” long and 32” wide the […]
