Review on 10'6"×31"×6" Ultra-Light Inflatable Stand Up Paddle Board - Non-Slip Deck Pad, Backpack, Leash, Paddle & Hand Pump Included! by Kevin Griffin

This has been a wonderful board for my introduction into paddle boarding. I recently had back surgery this summer and paddle boarding helps build core strength and stability even while staying seated. This board is cheaper than others so the paint on some parts does start to come off after lots of use, but not enough to bother me. I've used my board about a dozen times now and everything is still in excellent working condition a part from the glued in top of the handle, which came out of the rod this last time I was out on the lake. Thankfully, I have other paddles from my kayaks until I can super glue the handle top back in place. The only other down fall, and this is with ALL inflatable paddle boards, is that the hand pump is a back killing work out. Do yourself (and your back) a favor and just buy a car plug-in electric air pump when you buy a paddle board, whether it's this one or any other one. With this board I have found that my electric pump will push my pin up automatically when it's down airing up, so I keep my pin down when I insert my plug to inflate my board. Nothing more irritating than getting your board fully inflated and then taking the pump tube out, only to lose all the PSI pressure! My sister has a more expensive paddle board ($300-$400) and she was jealous that my board had paddle holders and handles and the top and bottom of the board. So, like I said, a great starter board and worth the money. I have taken my dog out on this board with me the majority of my trips and it's super stable. Remember, I just had back surgery, and if I can do this so can you! Just get a board (don't forget the automatic pump) and try it out. So much fun!
