4th update"¦purchase this in Aug 2021, replaced it in July 2023. I really believed I got my money's worth since I use it minimum of 2 days a week for almost 2 years and in summer 3-4 times a week. I took it everywhere my friends with kayaks paddled i.e. lakes, lagoons, river, intracoastal, creeks with fallen logs, ocean, etc. Now has 7 small patches so I decided to replace it but it's still useable but I would only use it for short paddles under 3 hours and in safe locations like lagoons and beaches and not in alligators infested rivers or body of water with strong currents.

It's almost a year since I purchased this SUP. I had used it a lot after month 4 ever since I got great electric pump and it takes ~10 mins. Average use 6-8 times a month. The deck started ungluing after month 8 so contact company for what to use. I was told by few people the PVC cement company recommended should not be used on anything flexible like my iSUP which I inflate and deflate often. Month 10, a small piece of deck completely peeled off so I will look for marine glue which others suggested to use instead. The large deck pieces edges are starting to peel off but my SUP otherwise is in good shape. If marine glue work this may last at least another year! Hopefully😊 but feel I got my money worth since I use it often. Definitely invest in electronic pump so you'll use it more. I also bought a better 4 piece paddle since that and pump made a world of difference to me and enjoy paddling more.

First review and update disappeared.
I bought this ~4 months ago but only used it twice in first month and the 3rd time, my paddle would not lock. broken mechanism but not rusted so I can't use. Thank goodness a friend had spare paddle or my day would be ruin. That was after 30 days return period.
Can't find vendor info. Contact Amazon and was sent a link to email and Rep ask for my address to send me a new paddle. I got an upgraded paddle a week later but unfortunately, there was large clump of glue inside so the handle can't fit in and I was going camping and wanted to bring my SUP. Contact company again and they promptly told me they will send another paddle. After my vacation, I got my new replacement but it the same as my original but use it three times already and it's holding up but I am going to look for another since it's not sturdy. It would be a shame if the paddle and accessories I.e. hand pump cause the bad reviews of this SUP. The cost of paddle can be as high as 30% of SUP so it's not insignificant. So I definitely appreciate the reps replacing the paddle. I had good customer service.
The iSUP I received is good quality. I paddle with a large group and there are lots of $600-900 ones and just comparing only iSUP, not enough difference to account for huge $ difference. My iSUP package is comparable to others in the $350-$400 range i.e. hand pumps, accessories except their paddles didn't fail after 2nd time out. I think the pump provided is inaccurate since I can't pump it over 11psi. I bought a compressor and was able to get it to 14.5 before it got too hot and took ~18 mins. Pump read 8psi but compressor showed 11. Since compressors are high pressure and low volume, I decided to hand pump 2nd time to 8psi and it took ~10 mins to reach 14.5psi. Tried it again at 5psi and that took 14 mins to 15psi. The hand pump I am sure is inaccurate so I just bought a rechargeable SUP pumps and it makes inflation so much easier. with the lower prices of SUP, it's easy decision to buy versus renting. Best part is the convenience of paddling anytime and any place.
This SUP is very stable and large with lots of D rings for securing accessories . it even accommodated a camping stool and cooler with plenty of room for my wet bag, shoes and paddle when I just want to chill on the water. Been out already 8 times with SUP and I really appreciate it's stability. even in high wind and lots wakes from boats, I can still stand and paddle while most are on knees or sitting. I think this SUP is great value at under $200. I suggest investing in pump and a better paddle if you go with this SUP.

Hi! I'm Minh.. and I love me some SUP.
I've owned 3 inflatables and 1 hard shell.

So.. obviously the hardshell one is amazing (by Isle) and trying to find something relatively cheaper and sturdy is the challenge. My 3rd inflatable was from Isle too but the pricing is beyond too much compared to these two i've chosen.

This is one of the 2 that was around the $300 mark.

The other one is Goplus Inflatable SUP: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07QSSB3FN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Both are Sturdy once fully inflated.
Both are 32" across.
Both are 23 lbs with the fin and bag. Add another 2 lbs for a paddle.. both almost the exact same weight.
Both come with everything you need: carrying bag, paddle, repair kit, fin.

Basically both are pretty much the same thing as far as use.. now.. here's where everything changes.

PROS/CONS/WINNERS
- Anchors: The Aquaplus has 6 extra anchor parts. 4 on top/middle of the board, and then 2 on the side. The 2 on the side you can connect a should strap (which they include) for easier carrying. the other 4 are great to connect to other SUP boards when you're chillin' or you can connect a velcro strap to hold your paddle when you're laying out. The GoPlus only has the normal front 4 anchors for the bungee strap and rear for the ankle strap.
Winner: The Aquaplus

- FINS: The GoPlus has 2 permanent fins as well as 1 large fin that you take on and take off, so I thought they would help keep it steady. Honestly, I can't tell the difference with the two little fins, but as long as you have the one fin on there, you'll be perfectly fine. They both install the exact same way. so I'll give it to GoPlus because maybe it does help? but I can't feel it.
Winner: The GoPlus by a hair.

- DIMENSIONS: The Aquaplus seems to be bigger on the front area where the bungee is.. I don't know why but it is. so im guessing it would be easier to balance stuff up there, versus the GoPlus. But where you stand it's basically 32"
and also both weigh the EXACT weight.
Winner: The Aquaplus

- THE MANUAL PUMP: The pump on the GoPlus seems to be more rigid.. but the hose is connected at the part of the pump that goes up and down. so it's flying all over the place when you're busy pumping. The Aquaplus is more basic, but the tach didn't work. and honestly, I don't even look at the gauge anyhow.. I do the feel test. you feel it until it's super hard, and then you put an extra 10-15 pumps in.
Winner: The Aquaplus

- PRICING: the Aquaplus was: $269
the Goplus was: $339 + $20 coupon code: = $319
basically I paid an extra $50 because I wanted the "wood look".
Winner: The Aquaplus

OUTCOME:
well, the Aquaplus, has those extra anchors, and the shoulder strap, and you can't beat that pricing, so clearly.. it's the winner... CLEARLY.

Also, if you're going to buy a pump. I found the one that will work with a 400w car adapter/converter:

Also, you're gonna need a cup holder.. here's my setup:
- cup holder board mount: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072K9RP29/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

- board connectors: (this is if you have a couple of boards you wanna chill together without floating all over.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B79Q4ZS/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A3M47XCZPTMHM1&psc=1

- Portable ice cooler and pillow: I use this to haul my beers.. eh.. I mean soft drinks in for a day of SUPing. Keeps it cool for hours!! and soft enough that I use it for a pillow when im laid out.

follow me! I buy a TON of stuff :)

This is my second inflatable SUP. I also have a hard surf sup and have had other flat water paddle boards.
The quality of the construction on this board is on par with higher end brands. The board paddles really well for an inflatable and the accessories that come with it are good. The paddle is flimsy but that is to be expected for a three piece paddle.
Portability is the biggest asset of this board, along with construction. The weak point is the lack of side fins which aids with stability at the expense of drag, but that allows the board to fold easier and in a more compact manner. Overall, this is the best inflatable I found at this price point.

Attention all paddle board enthusiasts! If you're in the market for a high-quality, versatile, and easy-to-use inflatable stand-up paddleboard, look no further than the Aqua Plus 6inches Thick Inflatable SUP.

From the moment I took this board out of its handy travel backpack, I knew I was in for a treat. The first thing that struck me was how durable and sturdy it felt - this is no flimsy pool toy. The board is made with military-grade PVC material that can withstand even the toughest of conditions. It's also 6 inches thick, which makes it incredibly stable and easy to balance on, even for beginners.

One of the best features of the Aqua Plus 6inches Thick Inflatable SUP is how easy it is to inflate. The double action pump that comes with the board makes inflating it a breeze - I had it fully inflated in just a few minutes. And once it's inflated, it stays that way - I never had to worry about it losing air or becoming unstable.

But the real test, of course, was taking it out on the water. And let me tell you, this board did not disappoint. It glided through the water effortlessly, and I felt completely in control the entire time. The included paddle is also top-notch - it's lightweight and easy to adjust, so you can customize it to your height and paddling style.

Overall, I can't recommend the Aqua Plus 6-inch Thick Inflatable SUP enough. It's perfect for all skill levels, from beginners to experts, and it's versatile enough to use in any water conditions. Plus, with the included backpack, leash, and shoulder strap, it's incredibly easy to transport and store. So if you're in the market for an inflatable paddleboard, do yourself a favor and give this one a try - you won't regret it!

The first impression upon receiving the SUP was its impressive build quality. The board boasts a sturdy and durable construction, instilling confidence in its performance and ability to withstand various water conditions. Its sleek design and vibrant colors contribute to an eye-catching appearance that stands out on any body of water.

What truly sets this paddleboard apart is its versatility. It effortlessly accommodates various activities, from tranquil paddling on calm lakes to tackling small waves in coastal areas. The stability of the board is remarkable, even for beginners. The ample deck space provides a comfortable platform for standing, and the non-slip surface offers secure footing regardless of skill level.

Transporting the SUP is surprisingly hassle-free. Its lightweight design allows for easy loading onto a roof rack or into the back of a vehicle. Inflatable versions are particularly convenient for storage and travel, as they can be deflated and packed away in a compact bag.
