Does anyone know anything about inflatable SUPs? Just wondering about durability and performance.
Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex.
I had a 10' Isle all around as my first board for about 1.5 year and now have a 1/2 inflatable Pendleboard to travel.
The inflatables are great starter boards, travel, flat water and for the family. Very stable. Not great to surf on as no rails.
This help?

Hey Alex, I have 2 Fanatics, one 10' and another 12'. Mine are about 4 years old and the bigger one blew out it seems when it got too hot. Although I was able to fix it with the repair kit. The newer ones are better but the key is to inflate them to the correct PSI. I ended up buying a pump that you can set the PSI to and it shuts off automatically when it's reached. It makes a huge difference, I take them to Maui and the 10'0" was fun in the smaller waves when inflated to the max. The big one is great for my wife and daughter to paddle together. This is the pump I got....

This is the newer version on my 10'0" the new stubby air looks fun.
