Read our full review of the iRocker All-Around 11' here: www.supboardguide.com/irocker...
The iRocker All-Around 11’ 2020 is a fun, stable SUP board that works well for both novice and experienced users. We have rated this board a 9.8 out of 10.0 stars for its excellent construction, easy handling, and versatile design.
The 11’ length makes the iRocker All-Around board perfect for larger or taller riders who want a very stable SUP. It is also a great option for people who like to SUP with kids -- as there is plenty of room for little ones to ride along and move around. Beginner to intermediate riders who want the perfect all-around SUP will love the iRocker 11’.
The iRocker All-Around 11’ is ideal for flatwater conditions as it is stable and excellent to learn on. It also works well in easy streams and rivers where you don’t have to maneuver too much. This board would work in small surf conditions and could even be fun in open ocean waters (but not heavy surf). iRocker has also added more D-rings, extra bungees for storage and even action and fishing mounts to the All-Around 11’ which makes it excellent for fishing! You can haul yourself, your gear, and even use one of the action mounts to secure your fishing pole.
The iRocker All-Around is 11’ long, 32” wide, and 6” thick when fully inflated. It weighs 24 pounds and supports a max weight of 435lbs! This board is constructed of a triple-layer composite PVC with a drop-stitch inner core for structural integrity. This design has reduced the overall weight of the board by 20% -- which makes a huge difference! The board should be inflated to 15-18psi and the included iRocker dual-action pump makes this quick and easy. The All-Around 11’ fins are nylon, with a quick-lock removable box that makes them a snap to get on and off. The paddle is a carbon-blend shaft for durability with a light-weight nylon blade.
iRocker has designed the All-Around 11’ to be both stable and manageable. Both the size and structure of the board make it so you can walk around, do yoga, and navigate with kids. While this may not be the best board for paddling down a Cat 3 river, it handles great in lakes and light waves and we found it to be quite maneuverable when dodging a few bushes, trees and rocks.
Tracking on the iRocker All-Around 11’ is impressive and the tri-fin design keeps it in line on the water. While inflatables typically don’t glide as well as hard boards, the All-Around 11’ cuts smoothly through the water so you don’t feel bogged down while paddling -- even when loaded with gear and/or passengers.
The iRocker 11’ All-Around is a great board for general use. It works well for new riders who want to feel stable in the water. It is great for fishing with the added cargo area and fishing mounts. And it is fun for experienced riders who want to carry kids, gear, or even just learn new maneuvers on a stable board. We recommend the iRocker All-Around 11’ for anyone who wants to learn or enjoy the perfect SUP experience!

Thanks for the review! Ordered mine in Seafoam yesterday and it shipped today! Can't wait!
Just received this board today in the orange color. Your video is very helpful as I am a beginner with no experience yet. Hope to take it out this weekend. Thanks for your helpful review with all of your tips. Watching was time well spent.
Been out on mine a few times now...love it! Still working on my skills, but I’m excited by the possibilities it offers. Really cool way to get outside with the wife and enjoy the world!
Very good detail video, I enjoy watching it over and over again, great job!
So cool review, thanks! thinking on getting one!
Wow! Great presentation. I really appreciate the thorough review. This helped me make a decision.
Thanks for your review, I brought this board :-)
This was a fantastic review. Great job!
Brian, thanks for the kind words, and I'm glad you liked the review!
Solid review. Thanks for the info.
I spent over a thousand dollars on a Blackfin xl about a year ago. I've enjoyed the board but I started to notice the glue on the deck and board were failing in multiple places. Given the circumstances with covid I can understand receiving a flawed product but I have been absolutely appaled at the customer service I received. When I contacted customer service about what is obviously a manufacturing flaws their solution was to send me glue which damaged the paint on the board. When I contacted them again that I shouldn't have to do a self fix on an almost new board that had a manufacturing flaws, they emailed me directions on how to apply the glue. I was not offered any other solution to my problem and have had more spots on the board come apart since then. Don't risk it, buy from someone else
Question: how and where did you store the board?
What you are describing I've seen on inflatable boats. I had a 5 year inflatable PVC zodiac style boat that basically looked brand new for those 5 years and gave it to my parents to use as a dingy. With in the 1st year that my parents had it there were allot of the issues you described.
When I owned it to dive off of it was sprayed with 303 uv protection, cleaned, and kept it out of the sun when not used.
My parents kept it in harbor, no uv 303, getting blasted by the sun.... It fell apart very quickly cosmetically and some seams as well.
This PVC stuff (nearly all the PVC boats are made with Korean PVC materials out of a couple factories and I suspect these boards are no different) really needs some sort of uv protection, can't be stored in the sun, and when out of the water not being used for a bit needs to be slightly deflated. The boats generally have a pressure release valve but I don't see one on this product so if fully inflated in the morning, left on the beach or dock in the sun the air will expand and over stress the seams.... This happens on zodiac style boats with drop stitch floors that have no release valve (nearly identical construction as these inflatable boards).
@@johnnygunz2300 I roll it up and keep it in my garage after I use it and I only take it out on a daily basis. I haven't taken it camping or left it inflated over night
@@boltvanderhuge1273 hmm... Weird. The only other thing I could think of is of your garage gets ultra hot... Like Arizona summer hot, but even then in a bag.
Bummer.
Based on my research and topped off by this awesome review, I just ordered this for my daughter for her birthday. She is an experienced kayaker now living in Florida, but she is in a condo and doesn't have the storage space for a kayak. I thought she would love this, especially with the kayak conversion. Thanks for the great info!
Our pleasure and thank you for your feedback! She is going to have a blast on one of these and will absolutely love the portability/adaptability she will be able to have on one. We hope she enjoys it!
Great vid & review! We ordered yesterday the iRocker 11 All Around grey by iRocker Germany. Cant wait to get it and paddle on the lake & sea! Greetz from The Netherlands 🌊🏄♂️🇳🇱
Fantastic choice! Would love to hear your experience when you get out there on it!
SupBoardGuide In one word: GREAT! The board arrived last thursday. Past weekend we try it for the first time. All of the family are beginners, two boys ( 12/14 ) and myself and my wife ( 49/47 ). All of us had a great feeling and first sup experience here on the lake @ 🇳🇱. Thanks for your reaction & review. Greetz from The Netherlands 🤙🏻🇳🇱🤙🏻
Based on your presence and experience, I also ordered the IROCKER yesterday. I was between BLACKFIN x, IROCKER AA11 and Thurso surf Waterwalker.I hope my final choice justifies me.
Greetings from Greece.
How is it?
What is the electric pump plugged into? I can’t find the electric pump on the irocker website can you link to it?
Do you think rocker is coming out with at new 2021 version of the 11' all around? If so, I may want to wait a few more months. Thanks.
Thanks for the great video! I'm looking at either the iRocker All-Around 11' or the Model XL. I plan to do some SUP fishing, SUP fitness and general flat water paddling. Suggestions for one over the other?
Hi Abbie, thanks for asking! They are both fantastic all-around style boards. However, we would suggest the Blackfin Model XL. This is largely due to Blackfin being the premium line by iRocker and being able to accommodate for a fishing rack and sand spear (both sold separately). The Blackfin Model XL also has a larger surface area than the iRocker AllAround 11' which allows for a very stable ride for SUP Fitness. However, you truly can't go wrong if you chose the iRocker All-Around 11' either.
We are currently uploading an in-depth review of the Blackfin Model X (similar to XL, just smaller) today which hopefully makes the decision just a little bit easier for you!
Do you have a portable 12v battery? What did you plug your electric pump into?
What did you use to power the electric pump?
I'm 5'6" and I think this is too big for me. Thoughts?
Would this perform similarly to the Nautical 11'6 that was just released, just with better construction and accessories? Or would the 11'6 nautical be closer to the sport?
Matthew, we haven't paddled the 11'6 Nautical yet (it's on its way). However, based on what we've seen, I'm guessing that the new Nautical will be closer to this than the Sport. The Sport is thinner than the 11' All-around both in the middle and the tail of the SUP, and the 11'6 Nautical has the same width dimensions as the All-Around (32" in the middle, 16" in the tail). We'll have the Nautical review up soon, so stay tuned!
Would the irocker electric pump work with any iSup? Or only irocker boards?
I'm pretty sure it's any iSUP.
Where did you get the SUP stands?
They look so key to have.
They definitely come in handy for these reviews! These actually took a little ingenuity on our part by bolting garage wall hangers to a couple of saw horses!
Will any of the bixpy fin adapters still work?
James, I'll be honest - I'm not too familiar with the bixpy fin adapter. From bixpy's website it looks like you would need a standard US fin box. In that case, the iRocker All-Around 11' would not work as it comes with the snap-lock fins.
Please let me know if you have other questions or need help finding a board that would be a good option with a US fin box.
Hi I’m deciding between irocker all around 10 and 11. I’m male, 160lbs, 6’1” with some paddleboarding experience. I heard that if you are above 5’11” you should go with size 11 but I like the increased meneaverability and cheaper price of size 10. Would it be a mistake to get a smaller size? Thank you
Typically the longer boards are suggested for taller paddlers due to taller paddlers weighing more and the extra volume of the board being able to support more weight. However, at 160lbs you are going to be more than fine on the All Around 10 as even our 6ft, 200lb tester has felt comfortable on that board. Let us know how you like it!
@@supboardguide that guy did not appreciate your responce, but i do. we have a 10'6" (10.5') of a cheaper brand, and want to buy aother isup so that we can paddle together. i am about 77kg (170lbs) and my partner less. i am currenlty torn between 11 and 10. i guess we should be very happy with a 10' board, right? btw, the plan is i will also buy a kayak seat to convert one of the boards to a kayak for difference expeience, and our 5yrs old may sit at one of the board too when we paddle. Thanks.
After lot of great reviews here, i'm stuck between Irocker 11 allround one or Bluefin Cruise 12 (10.8 maybe). Wich one do you recommend ? Both will be for same purpose. Family paddling across the choppy sea (rarely lakes), maybe me and my 68kg son together on it. Thanks in advance for answer.
Which one did you buy. I fancy the iRocker SUP having hired a board last year. My mate got the Bluefin Cruise 10'8" with kayak seat
Are you still happy with your purchase ?
@@brianmorrison9168 i have both of them, BF 10.8 and IRCKR 11, both very good boards. Super statisfied. I prefer 10.8 and miss 11.
In term of build quality 10.8 is little bit better, but you get what you pay for.
Who want state of the art board, choose RED PADDLE, but then you pay for everything what you get optional with BF and IRCKR.
Anyway, you can't go wrong with each of them.
@@goranradakovic4108 thanks for your answer. I am surprised at your comment about Bluefin being better quality....iRocker seems more common.
In UK at the moment BF £449, iRocker 11. £549 which seems very good value
I might ask if I can try out my mate's BF
Kind regards !
Why do SUP manufacturers not supply glue in their repair kits?
how much is this irocket
All over fb these boards are already split open when they open the box . I’ve tried every day 10 times a day to call ! No one ! It says hit star to get a call back. Star doesn’t do anything . Emails are 5-7 days . Delivery is NOT 1 week !!!
Thanks for the video. One of the top inflatables for 2020?
Yes, a ton of our readers loved the iRocker All-Around last year, and there were several great upgrades this year to the lineup. You can see our updated list of best inflatable SUPs for 2020 here: www.supboardguide.com/best-inflatable-paddle-board-reviews/ (note - we'll be updating that pages as new boards come in to be reviewed).
Hey, where are you guys filming this?
This was filmed at Sand Hollow lake in St. George, UT (about 2 hrs outside of Las Vegas)
@@supboardguide Looks awesome!
Great review thx. So I just got mine today. I wanted to buy from a company made in the US. IRocker website says made in Jacksonville, FL, but mine says made in China. Bummer. Seriously wanted to support US manufacturing. A bit confused with their mixed messaging. Any one else notice this?
They are lying, thats why you cant comment under their Vids here on yt
All are manufactured outside the US!
I am not happy with my Nautica 10,6 at all.
1) The middle Fin dont fit in the Finbox
2)The Pump dont fit into Ventil correctly, it looses air while pumping
3)The adhesion of the layers is inadequate
Now i try to return the Board but the custmer service is very slow...never again, spend 100 bucks more and get a Bluefin Board.
"We made so many upgrades to this pump, it's great" *gives up after 2 minutes and goes to electric pump* great demo...
The pumps truly are great! Between filming multiple boards at a time and the sake of the video that giving a brief overview/demo of the pump and switching over to the electric pump was our best option. We are planning a more in-depth video review of the pumps in the near future. Stay tuned!
@@supboardguide sounds cool. your videos are great, and everything else in this review is extremely well done so thank you for the content
Your revues say the cruiser is more stable … which is it …
How is iRocker’s customer support and service?
In Europe it's the worst possible! I bought an AllRound 11” and I'm really sorry because the customer support just doesn't exist, it's like a ghost company! No one responds to emails, you can't get in touch with them at all… if you have a problem (like I did) the only solution is throw the board in the trash and buy another one! Stay away from this company if you live in Europe! 👎👎👎
@@Dili0077 thank you for your advice. I’ll be buying an Atoll board instead!
@@flyontop And if you want another advice, buy your SUP in a physical store, where you can go if you have any problems or need something. In a store you can be better advised about what to buy, not only the board but the paddle, which is just as important as the board, because a paddle that is not adapted to your body causes several injuries. They often have almost new second-hand SUPs and you can even get a great deal and buy a much better board/paddle at a good price and don’t have to pay a ton of shipping to return it, or wait for a response that never comes (like irocker) …
@@Dili0077 true, very valid points. Didn’t know about the paddle and injuries. Will keep that in mind when I purchase.
@@flyontop You should pay attention to the size of the paddle, if it is adapted to your height, its flexibility (stiffness) and the size and shape of the blade. Usually lighter paddlers have smaller blades and more flexible shaft’s, but if you go to a shop they will help you choose the best for you, and for the purpose you want to give to the SUP (surfing, cruising… etc.) Believe me that paddle is super important to enjoy your SUP, because if you start a ride and a few minutes later start to have pain in your back and shoulders because you have a “wrong paddle” you won't enjoy anything!!
Blackfin?
Were you asking if this is a BLACKFIN SUP? This is the iRocker All-Around 11'. We'll have the BLACKFIN reviews up soon - so stay tuned! (And yes, BLACKFIN is the premium line of SUPs that iRocker makes)
SupBoardGuide yes, I’m anxiously awaiting the blackfin review. Thanks.
@@pintofmiller We are hoping to be able to get out and shoot the Blackfin Model X (and maybe XL) tomorrow, weather permitting - so stay tuned!
if it inflates it is an iSUP product
I have one, it’s slow
IT COSTS 150$ to send it back … THEY DONT PAY IT !!!! CUSTOMER SERVICE IS CRAP !
