Amazing SUP at a killer price!

I am in no way affiliated with Bluefin, this is an honest review and I paid full price for this item. I've been looking for inflatable SUPs for several months and I had to stay within the $500 budget. I've been using a cheap model in a big store for a year and needed an upgrade! If you can spend a little more, you don't have to for your first inflatable SUP. My top pick was the iRocker Cruise, and even with the 2018 model on sale, you're still paying $525. I chose Bluefin because the price was amazing and they added a kayak seat, extra kayak paddle mount and coiled leash all in one package. I was lucky enough to pay $479 and got an extra $50 [$429 total] that ran, but for $479 this SUP is amazing! I'm 5ft 9" / 160lbs, the 10ft 8" model is a good choice. I unpacked the SUP and read the instructions in 2 minutes. I hooked up the pump and this thing filled up in about 5 minutes. If it takes 10 minutes, put a plug in the pump and you'll get a faster pump. Make sure the little button you use to inflate the SUP is pulled out to allow the SUP to inflate. When you press it, the SUP will deflate. Keep in mind I haven't tried this on the water yet so there will be an additional review! I live in Palm Beach County, Florida and I'm 2 minutes from the bay and beach so I'll be cleaning that up soon! The instructions say to leave it inflated for 24 hours before using it just to see how well it stays inflated. The construction of this SUP is very solid and very well made. The only thing stopping it from getting 5 stars was the pump gauge was broken and I couldn't tell when it was at 15psi but again the SUP filled up quickly and felt very strong and stable. I would have to compare this to a $700+ inflatable SUP to really see if there is a difference. This board feels great and feels a lot lighter than the specs say. I would make this purchase again.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad but...
