Review on 🏄 GILI Adventure Inflatable Stand Up Paddle Board: Lightweight, Durable Touring SUP: Find 11' or 12' Long x 32" x 6" Thick Boards with Wide & Stable Stance by Brandon Guidroz

I (again) did a lot of research before deciding on the GILI adventure. I actually have their AIR 10'6 board and am happy with it, but I needed an extra board while I was out with my girlfriend. Paddle, pump, bag and board were packed very well. When I first pumped up the board I couldn't believe it - it looked even better in person. This is one of the coolest paddle board designs I've ever seen. It's an 11" touring paddle board with a pointy nose, so I expected it to handle differently than the station wagon I had. I honestly didn't notice a huge difference. I was expecting it to be a bit slower, but it slices through the water with ease with its pointed nose. I'm really not sure which one is faster but I'm not looking for a racing board so I don't care. The board is super stable. I weigh over 200 pounds and feel the board is stable enough with a second person or dog. The double bungee system is great. I often load the ice box in the back and the dry bag and shoes in the front. The soft lining is great and very comfortable. The board also has plenty of D-rings for external mounts and for a kayak seat. I contacted the company and they said their kayak seat kits would be available this summer. The paddle is also an improvement. It has a carbon fiber shaft and a black blade. It is very light and robust. The GILI bag and pump are still first class. My only complaint is that I get a little tired after pumping up two of these. I should either get my girlfriend to pump herself or buy an electric pump! Still better than having a hardboard that doesn't fit in my BMW! I love this board and can't wait to use it again and again this summer.
