I still love it. It's such a rigid board that I don't really feel that the waves bother it too much. I have been on the board with two people in fairly rough water and felt safe the whole time. The wind does tend to blow it around some though. I am assuming due to how light it is that is just the nature of having an inflatable. It is perfect for small lakes though. I use the Bixpy motor on mine and that really helps with manueverability.
How portable is this board compared to other iSUP boards? I know that it's quite a bit heavier. You make it look very light, though. Also, is this wider board difficult to paddle?
I've never owned any other iSUPs prior to this one. I have owned a great deal of rotomolded kayaks, and having the FishSUP is such a breeze. It is wider, but I have 250cm paddles that I normally use and the seat allows you to sit higher on the water. If you are not using the seat and are standing, SeaEagle does have a really nice SUP paddle that comes with it. I find myself using the john boat style seat a lot because it is comfortable. It may be slightly heavier than most SUPs, but it very manageable. With the track fins in, the FishSUP tracks really well and makes it easy to paddle as you are not having too much side to side movement. it rolls up fairly small as well so the SUP and a paddle would make a great portable package.
You still liking it? How is it with small waves 1' or wind on a small lake?

Not everybody has a truck. How about showing us how to inflate it.
I will work on that. thanks.
