We have an NRS Baron 6, an Isle Airtech, and a Solstice Bali (listed most expensive to cheapest, also most volume to least, and I think longest to shortest). We bought the Solstice four years ago because it was the cheapest one available at the time and I wanted to see if we liked SUPing before throwing a bunch of money into it. I'm 5'10" and 150lbs and my boyfriend is 6'2" and 225lbs. He can ride the first two, but the solstice is much too short and thin (too little volume) to support him stably and he said he doesn't enjoy it at all. The NRS Baron is too much board for me to maneuver around the lake over a few hours and especially on rivers, thus I have a less enjoyable time on it. However, the Baron is super stable when inflated to the right pressure and it can hold a heavy cooler and I can even sit on it with him. It's a pricier board, but I thought I'd throw that in there if you ever find yourself wanting more stability. I primarily only ride the Isle and I love it, but I do find the Solstice easier to maneuver as it is shorter and has the touring style. I mostly ride the Isle over the Solstice for silly reasons--I like the graphic design better and since I spent more on it I feel like it should see the light of day more often.

Your height and weight can make a significant difference as to your enjoyment on the board so I would base your decision on how much weight there is to you and how much core strength/stability you have (more weight/less stability/easier board to balance on, go with a higher volume board, want ease of maneuverability, go with a touring board; it's kind of a balancing act of features to get the right fit). Here is a very short guide from REI, and one from StandUp Journal (which I recommend a subscription to if you get really into paddling).

Also, if you get one with D-rings but no deck rigging, I highly recommend getting some. I clip my water bottle to it with a carbiner and use it to hold down my shoes, food, hammock, and drybag.

When it comes to ordering, we've both had much better customer service with Backcountry than REI, and with Amazon, they have a great customer protection policy if you're unsure of your seller.


Edit to add that I couldn't imagine backpacking/hiking with my Isle. It's so cumbersome alone, and any additional gear would be too much bulk for me (I can fit inside the bag) to carry over terrain that isn't completely flat. I'm not very strong for a female but I am athletic (for an idea of fitness level I do Insanity 5 days/week for the past year and jog ~ 8 miles 3 days/week). My boyfriend has some severe back issues so I couldn't tell you how it is for a taller or more muscular person as he is unable to carry it far without pain.

Dry bag (simple roll bag) and dry phone bag.

Surf racks for your car.

Inflatable life jacket belt. These are the bomb! https://www.nrs.com/product/40037.01/nrs-zephyr-inflatable-pfd

Pretty much anything from NRS - https://www.nrs.com/category/2550/sup/

Good paddle clothes. For days you don’t plan on getting wet, get lightweight shirts (short or long sleeve). This one from Speedo is great - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005QXF4FM

For days you might get wet, neoprene shorts (for under your swimsuit), neoprene jacket, etc. A little bit of lightweight neoprene adds a lot of potential warmth in the water and makes your more confident. Check out NRS Hydroskin.

Good hat.

Polarized sunglasses with a cord.

I'm giving you US links just to let you know what I'm talking about but you shouldn't have any trouble finding them elsewhere.

  • Dry Bags - Very handy to have along and it wouldn't hurt to have more than one. I keep one stocked and ready to go at all times.
  • Onyx PFD - PFD that wears like a belt and stays out of the way until you need it.
  • Waterproof Phone Pouch - Cheap and handy
  • First Aid Kit - I keep one in my dry bags but have never had to use it. You never know though.
  • Survival Whistle - Because you never know.
  • Cooler - If it's a long outing I like to have a soft cooler that I can strap down.
  • Headlamp - Just another one of those you never know items that takes up hardly any space in a dry bag. Alternatively you could get a bunch of those cheap LED bracelets.
  • Water Bottle - I swear the Gatorade squeeze bottle is the best water bottle ever made. I always have one with me when I'm paddling.

I don't have an Imgur account. But I got these. The screws broke so had to use different ones than what was provided, but otherwise works great and super easy. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008OO82WC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

If you don’t find one these kits have everything you need, that would be a pretty easy repair.

Sand it, cut cloth to shape, resin on the board, place cloth, small amount of resin on top, let set overnight, sand, paint.

Sh*t happens but good luck. 👍🏼

Edit- just make sure you use epoxy resin and not polyester resin (if you take this route)

I have this paddle and you can't beat it for the price. Real nice finish, super strong.

u/SynthesizerShaikh · 1 pointr/Sup

I just got this iSUP at <$500. It rides very nicely on a mildly choppy river bank. Seems well built and overall I feel like we got a good deal. Lots of reviews on amazon

u/miggitykb · 2 pointsr/Sup

I wear these until the water gets really cold - http://www.amazon.com/ONeill-Superfreak-Tropical-Split-Black/dp/B0031YY6F2

Just starting my 3rd year of heavy use with them now, well made for sure and would highly recommend.

We have a high end board with an expensive werner paddle, and then a more moderately priced BIC tough tec board. I bought this BPS paddle for it. It's not as nice as the Werner, but it works well and is solid. A touch heavier, not as nice of a blade shape, but good for the $ https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01IWFEKLE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

This post is a bit old but I'll post my experience so far for anyone searching for more info on iSUP. I have a Saturn iSUP (SOT330) I bought from boatstogo.com last year. It's 11' long and 6" thick and inflates to about 12PSI. I'm new to the sport so it was a cheap way to get started and I can bring it in my car anywhere easily. I have no problems with that board so far. It does ride a bit higher in the water than a normal board, but it's pretty stable. I really like the option with the D-ring setup on this board because I got their kayak seat and kayak/SUP paddle combo so I can kayak around the lakes sitting too. Some boards only have d-rings in the front/back. I got that whole setup with electric pump for under $700 shipped.

My girlfriend just got a Solstice Bali (35128) inflatable on amazon so we can both tryout different lakes. It's 10' 8" and 4" thick board that inflates to 15 PSI. It rides lower in the water than the Saturn and bows slightly in the center depending on weight of the rider. I feel it's a bit faster in the water than the Saturn, but you're feet get a little wet since it rides so low. The one thing I don't like about this board is the removable fin requires a screw to secure it while the Saturn slides in and locks without any screws.

I will say one of the challenges we've had with the inflatables is inflating them properly. It is key to get it up to the max pressure or you will be disappointed. At higher PSI you really need to adjust your stance and put your weight into the hand pump. A lot of the bad reviews I find with iSUP's are people simply not getting them up to the proper pressure. It's a bit of a system you just have to work out for yourself because the first few times maybe frustrating or take much longer than you would like.

We bought a 12 PSI electric pump and small battery pack and that works well at getting both boards filled up most of the way with little effort right away. Sometimes the pumps struggle to get the higher PSI though, so I just finish it with hand pump (or in the case of the solstice board it needs 15 PSI).

The problem I've run into is the connections on the hand pumps and electric pumps are a bit iffy, they always show people on videos just plugging the hose on a connector with nothing securing it or sometimes they come attached using a small zip-tie to secure it, but as the pressure increases and/or the hoses heat up from the electric pump I've had the hoses shoot off the connectors and then you're back to square one. So I recommend getting some metal hose clamps and Teflon tape right away and redo all the connections or at least be prepared to do so. Nothings more frustrating then hand pumping a board from 10PSI to 15PSI only to have the hose go shooting off on the last few pumps and having to start over. After re-securing the connections, we've had no issues and can get both boards ready to go in about 15-20 minutes from parking the car to walking down to the beach to launch after putting away the pumps and such.

This is the one I'm looking at. I want to do a bit more research to see just how functional it will be for my needs. Sure it can go up to 150 psi but can it just do 15? Looks like it will take a bit longer and be a bit noisier than a sup pump but look how rugged it is!

I’m not sure about fcs 2. But I bought an adaptor for the original fcs fin to fit the longboard fin box on amazon

Great if you're looking for a touring board that can handle some chop. (If you're looking to surf look elsewhere).

u/slappymaxwell · 1 pointr/Sup

Ding All is overkill for this repair. This is very easy to repair with Epoxy putty that is cheaper and just as durable (if not more) with this size ding. You can get it from a paddle/surf shop for $12 to $15 a tube or get the exact same thing from HomeDepot or Lowes for half the price under Loctite or JBWeld. I keep a tube with me whenever I go out for emergency repairs to keep it water tight.

​

BluePlanet has decent video showing how to do it. Their Ding Stick is the same stuff as above.

​

After it dries give the area some sanding. Start around 150 - 180 grit then finish ultra fine, like 220 grit or higher. I've used it a few times on a yellow Naish board, then hit the spot with some Krylon and it's hard to see the repair.

14' Tower Xplorer. It claims a 700lb capacity. It's the only 8" board I've ever seen.

Just found this on Amazon. Not sure of the quality, but comes with a paddle, roof rack, and other stuff. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B007722X40/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?qid=1405396406&sr=8-2&pi=SY200_QL40

PFD! Personal flotation devices are commonly seen as an annoyance, but if you plan to do any kind of open water paddling, its a small inconvenience that could save your life in a freak accident! You can also find smaller belt like PFDs that inflate on being pulled that arent so large and easy to bring along. Example

u/82plymouth · 1 pointr/Sup

Ya the seat they give you is flat against the board so your legs are straight out. Very uncomfortable. The lawn chair style seat I got is about 6 inches off the board so your legs aren't flat out along the board. This is what I got. If the link works.

I have the intex k2 explorer. Its ok at best. I would take it out paddling in a small lake but I wouldn't take it out over any distance. It killed my arms going maybe a quarter mile.
