I just got this pump I am 68 years old and it is No Quicker than myself on the Hand Pump. (perhaps even longer) The 10 foot could is too Short to reach the front or back of my truck Ram 1500 so I have to put the board to the side of my truck in the parking areas. The De-inflating is Nice save about 10% space in the Roll up Process.
Yes a good start to finish aspect would have been nice. I mean basically a walkthrough because it isn't in the manual. I purchased a used one that I suspect might be malfunctioning but I really can't tell unless I order another one to compare it to.
Very helpful. Curious if you (or anyone else) is surprised at how loud this pump is - starts out pretty quiet but then super-loud after 2-3 minutes. Is this normal? Don't want to roll up to the lake all peaceful and then ruin everyone's day with a loud blast of noise for 8 minutes (twice for our two boards)!
Just bought one ,but I’ve got a problem when I deflate the board,simply doesn’t work,I thought maybe I’m doing something wrong;I do plugged it on the other output but nothing happened,I thought posting here before I may have to return it;please any advice thanks
Thanks for the talking about the Shark, and mostly great to see you using a battery! ...so is the YABER 2500A Peak 23800mAh Portable Car Battery Jump Starter definitely up for the job?
I got the battery and unfortunately it's not up for the job with the Shark II. Nothing wrong with the battery, but the Shark II has a safety cutoff at >14.8V. This battery although has a variable DC output voltage of 12V - 16.8V, it always overvolts and the Shark II will turn itself off.
I use a ryobi power inflator. Since it's cordless I can be away from my car and inflate my board. Takes 24m I think. If the Shark was truly 8min to inflate the board fully, it's quite impressive for a 12 volt unit since the Ryobi one is 18v. Which leads to my next thought about carrying that small jumper. Have you actually tried it? The 12v output on those jumpers can't be more then 10amps. What's the output wattage on the Shark 2?
@@kylaherrera5522sorry, long response warning... for faster results I fill the board until the ryobi inflator reaches its limit, about 3lbs. I then switch over to hand pumping until 15lbs. Saves me about 7mins. The other method I use is tire valve adapter. I use the high volume air inflator to about 3 lbs and switch to the tire adapter, switch the ryobi over to high pressure, low volume setting. Takes over 20m to reach 15lbs As for moisture I do not really know. In theory the high pressure setting may produce warm or hot air when forcing the air into the board nearing its set target of 15lbs. So in theory if the air inside is warm then the board makes contact with the cold water, entrapy or moisture would occur, but when finished for the day I did not feel any moisture exiting the release valve. Also I would think that leaving the board out in the sun warms up the air inside the board, even hand pumping would produce hot air. I think it's safe. Last thing, use the deflator feature on the ryobi. It really helps with taking all the air out and folds away easier.
You missed the most important part. How to connect the hose to the paddleboard. The hose that comes with the Shark is a piece of junk. Absolutely awful and dangerous if you aren't careful.I almost took out my eye when it disconnected from the board.

Great demo. Thanks. You mention a portable battery pack. Could you please tell me which brand you purchased.

Do you need to have the car running as if it would drain car battery?
You gave no demonstration on how to use the digital display.
Thanks for the great review, Roger! It's quite a useful and handy SUP accessory to have.
Please can u send info/ link to the battery u used with the shark. The one here not working. Tia.
Yes, link not working .please send info

What does the other valve do, deflate?
This good for inflatable kayak and tubes?

Hi, have you had any issues using your Ryobi ?? I have a Milwaukee air inflator and heard that air Compressor create moisture in the board …

How does this version compare with the original Shark pump? They could have made the display at a 45-degree angle so that it's easier to see.
