I bought this SUP. My first one. Inflation to 14 psi takes about 8 min and it is super rigid. I am 225 lbs and I have no issues standing and paddling for long periods of time. Average for my trips is between 2 - 2.5 mph. Longest so far is about 45 minutes. I have left it inflated for 3 days once and it held pressure and still worked well. I am assuming I will mature and want something more expensive eventually, but for now I am super impressed.
I purchased 2 of these as my wife and my first SUP. I weight 190Lbs. I ended up having to inflate it to 16lbs. It was just too flexible for me to even stand on. I kept falling. Once I over inflated I was good to go. I'm sure that's against what is recommended but it worked. I'd also say that ours inflate way faster than this one did in the video. Ours take less than 5 min to fully inflate. Great review!!!
I got this board, glad l did after watching this review. Have not had it on the water yet but impressed with the overall look and feel, seems durable. Sure if you weigh 200 lbs it might not be the board for you, there are bigger boards. I'm 155 and my wife is 115 lbs.
When I try to inflate my elevation iSUP with the included electric pump, the pump always shuts off at around 7 PSI (I have it set to turn off at 15 PSI). I don’t hear leaking at the gasket or anywhere else. I can turn the pump back on, but it always shuts off about about 10 seconds. Any ideas why this could be happening? I leave my car running while inflating.
I had this board for a week and 3x on the water and returned it to Costco for the Body Glove Performer 11. Why? It's too flexy and not as stiff as the Body Glove. It's a slug on the water if 200+lbs and pushes too much water vs the Body Glove. Only the front of the board has bungie gear tie down and none on the year. BG has both front/rear bungie system. If you are new to inflatable boards, lighter the board means more flex. THe BG board has triple stringers for super ridged strength and this one does not.
What is the point of doing the "flex test"? The boards aren't meant to hold weight like that which could cause damage/excessive wear, and doesn't translate to real world testing in the slightest since the whole board is meant to be supported by the water, not on two points on saw horses. Is there a reason I am missing? Oh my god and now the torture test? I'm sorry but that just isn't smart or practical. Man, you can't call these videos "reviews" if you didn't even test them. It's like a half-assed overview. I hope you don't start making videos again and potentially influencing people to make purchases when you haven't even tested and shown what you are displaying. I can't believe how many people do this with everything.
@@palpinter4204 I'm glad you don't care people are influenced to spend their hard-earned cash by non-reviews. If you don't thoroughly review and test a product the way it is described/designed, you don't deserve the view count. Its as simple as that. RUclips is already flooded with crap that wastes people's time and money. I'm glad you don't care.

Thank you! You explained details the instructions omitted

Tried mine yesterday and noticed the same thing. Compared with another one I had before this one. Will try that.

I got this, I hope it does well on the water. I got seats for it.

Any thoughts on the hyper lite pontoon?
Great review. What is the difference from sup with 3 fins vs 1 vin
Three fins just help with stability in choppier water, or when in the ocean / paddle surfing.

All that and you skip how to unscrew the inflator properly from the board after you’ve inflated it!!
Ese motor no funciona para inflar el paddle, solo infla a 7psi y no da mas.

Looking forward to watch your "proper" test and review James!
