Tower Paddle BoardsInflatable 10'4" Stand Up - (6 Inches Thick) - Universal SUP Wide Stance - Premium SUP Bundle (Pump & Adjustable Included) - Non-Slip Deck - Youth and Adult - Chris Craft

Great board - looks great, stays fully inflated all summer and I really like that there are handles at each end, it makes it easy to deploy and retrieve from the deck of our boat. We did have an issue with the brown area of the deck peeling up, but Tower support was very easy to deal with and they are shipping me a new board - no questions asked. They assured me this issue has been fixed as they have taken measures to stop this from happening with a new cutting process.Very impressed with the level of service after owning the board for 14 months.

After considerable research I decided to go with the Chris Craft Edition iSUP by Tower. The Chris Craft edition is really just an Adventurer 2 model with blue stripes, extra "Chris Craft" text and a different deck pad. Overall, I am pleased with this board. I have taken the paddle board out on three occasions thus far and it has performed well. The tracking is good and the board feels very rigid when inflated to 15 PSI, but has some give where desired.While iSUPs are known to be slower than their hardwood, fiberglass or epoxy counterparts, I didn't notice any appreciable speed difference with this board in comparison to the rigid boards I have ridden. The included 3 piece fiberglass paddle is nice and the pump is sufficient. However, as is the case with any iSUP it does become considerably more difficult to inflate once you're over 10 PSI.Based on my research almost all iSUPs come from just a handful of factories in China, but Tower does provide a warranty and has pretty stellar customer service, two things you probably won't get if you go with one of the cheaper options available from one of the less known companies.If you're on the fence about getting an iSUP or not, just go for it! I was skeptical about purchasing an inflatable for a long time, but I am glad I did. I actually just bought another Tower iSUP for guests too!

This Tower SUP is very ridged, stable and width of deck made for quick learning. Deflating the unit is NOT as easy nor does it result in a flat result when compared to other SUP brands/ equipment. Takes additional steps and work to ensure air is removed enough to roll up, for storage purposes. Would have preferred to have the backpack/carrying case included with the price. Could have done without the book in exchange for a better operating pump that effectively deflates.
