Loved the colors, will be nice and visible on the water. I’m a 67 year old woman and it was easy to inflate and can carry it myself. Only problem was that the gauge on the pump doesn’t work. There are warnings everywhere, Do Not Overinflated. The indicator on the gauge never moved even when I stood on the board in my living room. In talking with others who have this board, this is a common problem. I have not reported this problem to the manufacturer or Amazon as yet. Can’t wait to get the board on the water!

Paddle boarding has been my fave hobby past 2 years! I love it and I always go with friends and my dog. Niphean is great brand, making paddle boards of high quality, very sturdy, coming in carry on bag with all important parts, plus they have all such a beautiful colors and different designs to choose from! As you can see in my photos I have purchased 2 different boards so I m always ready to take with me besides of my dog another friend.

Bought for kids birthday, tried it out tracks better then the other brands of SUP purchased for family. Only thing I didn’t like is it doesn’t come with a second paddle for kayaking, that’s a separate purchase. (Other brands do) but My child really wanted THIS board so far had been happy with it.
I got this board a couple weeks ago and have had it out in three different environments in MI: pond, smaller inland lake, and Lake Huron. I have had a blast in all three. It’s super light to carry, I love how much was included, and it is very stable. I had never paddle boarded until I got my own and I really enjoy it. I had two dogs on with me in the pond and one with me on Lake Huron. It was fairly wavy in the lake, but even with a pup I never felt like we were going to tip. The dogs paws have marked up the foam part on the board, but that is my fault. Great quality board and some reviews said the bag is poor quality, I think it could be thicker but really it’s not bad. I wouldn’t throw it by the strap full of everything, but I also wouldn’t be doing that anyways! My ONLY piece of advice would be if you’re not in tip top shape, be prepared to get your workout in while you’re pumping the sucker up. It takes me about 10 minutes when I’m by myself (with breaks because my triceps are on fire) and about 5 when I have someone to rotate with. There are pumps out there that you can buy and if you have any hesitations about whether you could do it or not, save yourself and get the pump. I have been super impressed with this purchase thus far and more times than not they have a coupon available! It’s worth the money and the design, colors, and quality are exactly what you see in the photo. If you’re on the edge about getting a board… this is your sign! You won’t regret it! My dogs and I love it and can’t recommend this product enough for someone looking to start out!

I have purchased 3 different paddle board and this one is by far the best construction and value! My kids and husband had a blast all summer long on it and the carry case is a great way to store it!

I’ve purchased from a different manufacturer before and for comparison the bag this one comes with is awesome – good quality. The bag from the other manufacturer was thin and didn’t last 4 months. However, this is a single stroke pump (only pumps on down stroke vice down and up) so putting air into it takes a bit longer.

Updating my review – I returned the defective board (with a bit of rigamarole since I didn’t have the original packaging, ultimately, Amazon refunded me any shipping costs) and I reordered a second board and immediately I could see the valve assembly did not have the same defect as the previous board. Inflated the board and did the soapy water trick, and there is no leakage. Have taken the board out once already on a 3 hour lake paddle, and no issues. So glad, because I just love the look of this board! Here’s hoping it lasts a while! (The pump I received this time around was also better – does not leak air while pumping like my first. Still would be nicer to have a double action pump – it would be a little bit less work to inflate)
——— After using twice and only inflating to 11.5 psi – heard a leak around the inflation valve. May have been there all along, who knows. With the soapy water trick, found the leak was coming through a weird square hole where the screw on valve cap string was attached to the valve assembly. No tightening of valve would resolve the issue, because the hole remains above the board level. Returned. Having read reviews of similarly priced isups all over amazon, seems like this is a common problem. So not sure where I’ll turn next to look for one! Also – the pump that came with this board was a piece of garbage. It stinks, because I really loved the look and design of the board.

I got this for my husband for his birthday this year and we spent the last half of the summer exploring different bodies of water around us. It was perfect for small adventures with both of us on it, and also for him and our boys to take little trips (see photo). We will be investing in one for everyone by next summer, such a fun way to explore our surroundings.

I have been wanting to get some paddle boards and came across these, normally were 299 but had a 100 dollar off coupon, so I bought 2 of them. All the features compare to other similar but more expensive ones. Upon using them they work great, hold air perfectly, are easy to air up and air down. They fold up easy and fit into bag with no problems. My kids and I have had a lot of fun on these on the lake. Definitely reccomend!

I am a beginner and I love this board! I had been looking at boards for several months. I needed a reasonable price but the board also had to look good. I bought this one in Summer Breeze. It is colorful, all the accessories perfectly match, and has so many D-rings for attaching whatever I want to take so I don’t lose anything. I took this board to the lake on a very windy day with lots of boat traffic. The water was choppy. Despite the conditions and my own poor balance I was able to start out sitting, then on my knees, and was finally able to stand up and paddle. The board was quick to respond and tracked well. I managed to stay up with only a few instances of nearly falling off. Since I made many changes from sitting or kneeling to standing I also had to change the paddle length many times. It is easy to adjust, even when standing. After a day on the lake the board was easy for me to grab the center handle and carry back to the car where the fins were easily removed and the board quickly deflated so I could pack everything back in the bag to take home. Looking forward to another day on the lake with my board.
