Review on Freein Explorer Inflatable Backpack Waterproof by Brian Elliott

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great iSUP for your money.

This is my first iSUP and I think it was a good choice. It is strong, durable and stable. There are plenty of attachment points and bungee front and rear are useful. I also like the simplicity of the detachable fin. The only criticism is the hand pump. I don't think these things are meant to be blown up by hand. If you pump this thing up to 15-18 psi, you won't want to row anymore. You will be exhausted. The electric pump is definitely worth the money. I bought a second board (different brand) that is narrower, longer and almost twice the price. It is less stable but easier and faster to row. It doesn't have the same fin mounts (more difficult to attach) and fewer fin mounts, but the Freein's quality is the same as a more expensive board and has more useful features.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • New competitors
