I have a good paddle board activity on the water. This board is a basic, solid, sturdy board.Quality: 5/5Design: 4/5Value: 5/5Pros: Portable. Safe. Fast to inflate.Cons: wish they have even more coloring and patternsOverall: 5/5We have been using this SUP very often for more than a month now, sometimes 3 days per week. We always come out of the water with a group of friends or family. This is our 4th SUP that we have. Not once do I feel unsafe on this board. I was nervous the 1st time using it though, but that it would quickly disappear once I got far into the river, but that never happened, it’s all in my head. It’s so fun to paddle around. It helps to motivate us to hang out in the river too as part of our summer de-stress. It is suitable for all riders, especially beginner adults and kids, as the sloped and non-slip grip surface allows the rider to stand stable while paddling. Constructed using very strong high-density drop-stitch material and PVC outer skin, it has an ultra-rigid paddle board suitable for water sports. It comes with a double action hand pump that’s easy to use and with some good exercise on the arms, we get the board to be inflated to the right psi after 15 mins (while having fun). It can be rolled up and stored into a bag for easy transport. Moreover, it comes with high elastic bungee straps - for safety; I tie this on my ankle, and a floating board paddle.Mostly we use it for paddling along our river. However, it can be used for other water sports too like medication, yoga or fishing. Once pumped to around 10-12psi as recommended, it’s stiff as a real board but still lightweight. Dry waterproof bag is included. I use it to hold my wallet, phone and a small towel to bring on the board with me.Details: it weights 28.2 lbsMax load of 330lbs, Board is 10'5'' long by 30'' wide and 6''thickWhy i get the inflatable standup board than getting a traditional board: there are several benefitsComfort: In general, inflatable SUPs are more comfortable than traditional fiberglass paddle boards, whether paddling with pets, practicing yoga poses on the water, or going on long trips. Inflatable boards have a softer deck than solid paddle boards, which can reduce contact pressure. The soft deck won't strain the legs, knees or back after a long day at sea. The inflatable SUP makes the rider more comfortable with additional cushioning. This is an important consideration if I’m bringing my dog and or kids to the board.-Storage: I can deflate the air and put it in a tight space. My home doesn't have space to store traditional board, it's perfect. Easily put the inflatable board in the closet, or put it on the gear rack. The inflatable model is also a great option for anyone who wants to keep the board in the trunk for a momentary adventure.Portability: When I am hiking to a lake or following a sandy footpath to a far-flung beach, I’ll be glad i have an inflatable SUP. Hiking for miles along a wind-whipped stretch of shoreline with a solid board is no easy task. With an inflatable SUP, remote paddling spots are accessible—I am only limited by the distance I’m willing to carry my board. I’m very excited about this.Beginner: Setting it up is a short process that beginners like me can handle with ease. pull the board out, inflate it with an easy-to-use and font pump. From the beginning to the end, the entire setup process usually takes a few minutes.-Convenient Packing: it’s an easiest thing to move around with a SUP. If I want to travel by phane, I can check the deflated SUP with your other luggage. Also, airlines generally do not charge oversized baggage charges. Upon landing, into a taxi or taking the bus, i can throw the SUP into the trunk or hidden in my seat. This one includes a carry-on backpack so it’s for this very purpose. The inflatable board is small, so I can carry it to the airport . For road trips, there is no need for roof racks, cam straps, or heavy lifting for inflatable SUP transport.Good for rough water sports: I can handle rough water adventures. It also has enough agility to navigate through rocky rapids and high water bodies.We bought this for some fun recreation that wouldn’t be too hard on my lower back. We have a small lake nearby and I set everything up before we headed out. It was easy to pump up and it was really stable on the water. I was able to paddle along with others who had more expensive hard boards. I was able to gather speed and got a great workout. This is a great experience for someone who isn’t as young as he used to be with a bad back. I had a blast on the water. It was easy to pack up and the carrying case has shoulder straps so you can carry it as a backpack. This an a great, affordable way to have fun in the sun and water.This is my first paddle board and so far I think it’s great. It was pretty easy and intuitive to put together. It comes with a backpack, which is nice to have to carry everything. It also comes with a repair kit, hand pump, paddle, fin, water bag (not pictured), and a phone protector. As several other people mentioned in the comments, I found the hand pump to be pretty cheap quality. It took me about 7 minutes to get the bulk of it inflated and then I ended up just using an electric pump to finish it off. Lightweight, easy to use. Overall, a good starting paddle board.Love it! Easy to inflate + get outside quick! Only downside is that the green printing on the top left a lot of green marking on the board when folded up. We’ve used it 3 times so far - good purchase!Took out the board today. It went well. The only complaint is the color rubbed off on the board. I unrolled it and turquoise was all over the bottom, it got on me and the paddle!!I haven’t taken the board out yet, but I wanted to do a trial inflate at home. I have to agree with some of the other reviews, the pump doesn’t stay locked in to inflate. Honestly, it pops right out if you look at it wrong, so it’s really annoying to inflate. Now I’m having to look at getting an entirely new pump because I can’t seem to find a contact page on the Ciays Amazon page.It's a must have sport accessory to have when you're living near the beach or a lake during summer time. It comes with everything you need to get started with water paddling (even has a nice backpack carrying case that can store everything). When not inflated, the whole bag is not much bigger than a medium luggage and would fit perfectly in the trunk of my Elantra GT hatchback (my car is not that big, so it would definitely fit in any other type of sedan). It does come with a manual pump, which will take about 10 to 15 minutes, depends on how fast and hard you pump, to fully inflate it to about 15 PSI. I'd recommend to also get an electric iSUP pump (need to be specific for iSUP because you will need to have the right pump adaptor for it to work), and that'd make it much more easier to set it up. The paddle board is super rigid and sturdy once fully inflated. It rated at 350 lbs capacity max, but both my wife & I were able to sit on it w/o any issue, we're at around 400 lbs. It only comes with 1 single paddle though, so if you're planning to use it for two person, you should plan to get an additional paddle. Overall, it's a pretty high quality iSUP and the price is very affordable, I'd highly recommend it.He comprado varas tablas de diferentes marcas. Y esta es de las pocas donde los accesorios llegan tal cual como en la publicación. De las formas y diseños publicados.La calidad es buena mas no superior. Excelente para días de recreaciónWe purchased 2 paddle boards last year, and after just under a year the outer edges are starting to bubble and delaminate on the Ciays. The other brand is not showing the same issues. I would not recommend purchasing a Ciays paddleboard.Hace un par de semanas compré 2 del mismo paddle pero a uno de ellos le acaban de salir estas burbujas solo en la zona donde está el flan negro. Es esto normal? O lo tengo que devolver?Los materiales en general son de baja calidad y a los 30 días, con poco uso, aparecieron muchas burbujas debajo de los pad antideslizantes...
