Sick, ive seen a few at super good deals like this that looked legitimate but i thought they were maybe pool toys in disguise. Im definitely going to be going for it. Thanks for the vid :)
You have a really good video here, fun pursuit of your $100 budget board. I've assembled quite a large quiver of iSUP's, Amazon and eBay, and mostly those were screamin' red hot deals. I prefer the 11'x32"x6 touring shape, under $200, then a 10'6" traditional surfboard shape, extra points for beauty and practicality. Favorites of mine: FunWater Manta Ray 11'6 FeathRLite 👍
I’ve e got a couple $100 boards that are better than my $400 board They didnt come with backpacks or pumps, but I use an electric pump anyways. For $7 put on a bigger center fin and is a huge upgrade
To be quite honest, I’ve only used my two boards a few times. I am going to take them to Big Bear tomorrow for the 4th of July weekend so we will see how they do after being stored since last summer.
Hi there! I just added a link in the video description. The price now shows $176 but if you are flexible on colors you can usually find one with a coupon that will bring the price down.
What Tyler said! A friend of mine bought 2 more pumps before I had to show her she had to keep pumping even when it got really hard to keep going! She thought she was going to pop it, but said it maneuvered so much better than when she was leaving it at 9psi 😅
It probably works, you just need to keep pumping. I thought mine was fully inflated, but the gauge hadn't moved so I figured it was broken. Did some googling and saw others had the same experience. My pump did in fact work, I just needed to pump more to get a reading. Once you start approaching 10 psi you're going to notice a lot more resistance and it will be harder to pump. If the gauge still hasn't moved it may be broken. To reach 15 psi I have to put a lot of my bodyweight on the pump. My pump seemed to detach on its own once I reached 15 psi and so even if your pump is broken you're unlikely to reach a pressure that would rupture the board. Though I wouldn't rely on pumping until it detach by itself to confirm you're at the appropriate pressure. It likely does work, but it's not going to give you a reading before it's at 3-5 psi. The board will appear inflated and feel hard even at just 1 psi(but it's not sufficiently buoyant just because it's rigid and stiff).

Thanks for sharing! I love the tutorial of set up and break down in addition to the review.

my first sup funwater 10'6 and i love it. bought it used literally used once for 80$
I’ve e got a couple $100 boards that are better than my $400 board
They didnt come with backpacks or pumps, but I use an electric pump anyways.
For $7 put on a bigger center fin and is a huge upgrade
So nearly a year later hows it held up ? Any seams popping ? un-laminating any where ? leaks ?

Can you post a link to the board?

Hello, I bought this paddleboard and the manometer does not work. Does anyone have the same experience?
Are you talking about the pressure gauge on the pump? Mine works, but it takes a lot of pumping before you start to see a reading on it.
