Great board but not for newbies.
I love my new SUP....some things to know before buying though.If you have never paddle boarded before, this board may not be for you. It is a huge workout keeping your balance and paddling, and I'm very athletic. The larger and wider boards are much better for newbies but this one with enough practice I will really enjoy. I'm also 5'7" 155lbs so that may add to the difficulty as well...the heavier and taller you are, the harder it will be to stay stable. Once I get the hang of it, I'm sure it will be much much easier and I like this ones size for also going out in the ocean as well as the bay.Some reviews have said the pump gauge doesn't work and I too thought this at first. It does work, you just have to pump way more than you think...your board will feel firm and full, but it's not, keep pumping, it'll be a workout, but the gauge does work.I love the boards inflatableness, but I do believe it adds to the unstability.Overall I do love this board but it will definitely take some practice. If you're looking for something easy and enjoyable for all ages, if recommend a larger sturdier board though....but if you're young, fit and want a good workout, this is great and a challenge.Love the colors, weight, pump, everything but the size and stability but for the price, amazing board and a lot of fun.

Sturdy as a rock
I bought this for myself as a Christmas gift. Temperatures being what they are, I haven't taken it out on the water yet, but I thought I'd write a review based on my initial impressions. I'll update once I get a chance to take this baby out on the water this summer.I have paddle boarded for about two years. I've never used an inflatable before, but purchased one because I found a regular board was not practical for me. They've heavy, I'm petite and a long way from the water, I don't have a travel rack, etc.First, the material of the board is impressively sturdy. Not knowing what to expect from an inflatable, I am pleasantly surprised at how rugged and durable this appears.That was my first impression pulling it out of the box. After pumping it up, I stood on the board in my driveway and couldn't tell a difference between this and a fiberglass board. Whether I'll notice the difference on the water remains to be seen. But so far, so good.It comes with a pump that was much bigger than I anticipated. It only took about 10 minutes to pump the board from completely empty to full. Overall, it was easy to pump up, though those last few PSIs are tough grind, to be sure.It comes with a patch kit, should you need it.It doesn't come with a leash. No big deal. I just bought one here on Amazon.Another pro: The board is beautiful. I'm a girl. Pretty things are important to me. :)Probably the best thing about the board is the weight. It's not light as a feather, but if you've ever carried around a heavy fiberglass board, you will gladly appreciate the difference. It is noticeably lighter.To be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect from an inflatable. But so far, I am extremely pleased with my purchase. Now comes the hard part - waiting for summer to arrive so I can give this an official test drive.Edit: OK, I've ridden this for a full summer now. It did take a couple of sessions out on the water to get my sea legs on it. You can tell it's an inflatable, not a fiberglass, once it's out on the water. It's not a dramatic difference. Give yourself some time and you'll adjust.I've noticed by the time the waves get too choppy for me, none of the fiberglass boards are on the water either. It holds up well in light to moderate surf.I still love how light and portable it is. Because it's inflatable, I spend my energy paddling, not burning it all carrying a heavy board out to the water.Also, the material has held up well. I've bumped it, shoved it in condo elevators and scraped it on wall edges. Not intentionally, but things happen. It appears to be the same quality material as a river raft, tough and sturdy.Overall, I am still pleased with my purchase. And I'm ready for warmer temperatures to do some more paddling. :)

Pretty, Rubbery, Travels well!
I loved the look of this board and I love how light it is to carry. It's compact and easy to inflate but it's Waaay harder to balance on because it's so rubbery. I'm certain with practice I could get the hang of it. The down side, for me, because it's so light & thick, is that it's hard to climb back onto without touching the bottom. It seems well built and after several hours of using it, falling off & trying to climb back on, it didn't seem to lose any air. I love how soft the surface is also cushioning my fall & I fell a few times. I gave it a hardy try this weekend. I'm 5'4" & 150lbs. I have fiberglass & plastic boards. They're heavy & hard to travel with but easy to balance and climb back on. I tried this one, thinking it would be nice to travel with. I'm bummed that it won't work for me. I'm gonna give a thinner inflable a try next.Good Luck!

Great Recreational Board
I looked at a lot of boards prior to this purchase. I intended to get an inflatable, but didn't want to settle. I have a friend who is really into the local SUP community, so one day I asked him about inflatables. He said, without hesitation, to get an Isle. He said they had two to supplement their hard boards and went on and on about how durable they are, and that he'd had some good customer service experiences. So I continued researching and debating between a couple lower cost boards. After finally pulling the trigger, I am so glad I did. My wife loves this board. She uses it for SUP yoga, and lake paddling. It is stable and rigid. We have ridden on it together, and had our children climb on and off while playing at the lake. People who ask about it are surprised that it is inflatable. We've never taken it to a river with moving water, so I don't know how it would behave in those conditions.The pump is decent, and you will get quite the workout with those last few pounds of air being pushed in. We run it between 13 and 15 psi., and haven't had any issues. When deflated and rolled into the bag, it is comfortable and light enough to carry for a considerable distance if you have to walk in to a place to SUP.The paddle seems nice to us, but this is our only SUP and paddle, so we don't have much to compare it against. The paddle does float, as we've tested that a few times.All in all, this is a great board, and seems to be worth the investment. We have added a leash to it, but aren't looking to upgrade anything else anytime soon.

I absolutely love this board
I absolutely love this board. It's beautiful and easy to carry. It takes 10 minutes to blow up, you can carry it down to the lake with one hand. It takes less than 5 minutes to release the air and when it's in the backpack it's very light. I'm just worried when rolling it up, the solid parts where the fin gets attached to will eventually get wrecked but so far haven't had an issue. I will be trying to roll it differently so it's not so bent in that area. I have taken it on the lake a couple times and enjoy it so much. I don't know if I would pay full price but I got it as the "deal of the day" and happy I did.

Great bought 3
Bought 3 of these beautiful boards for 2 of my friends and myself. We all love the pattern and that it’s multy purpose. (Only wish the colours were reversed because the teal does show the dirt more than I think the grey would) does not come with a teather strap. Pretty easy to pump up in about 15min and the pumps all registered but not till the board is quite pumped already. We all cut and put a pool noodle at the bottom of are paddles about 12” after reading some of the paddles sink and it does not interfere with paddling at all. We picked a teal one that matches the boards nicely .

Must use pump that comes with it!
I absolutely love my new paddle board... it’s beautiful and is totally as advertised! My only complaint is that the ankle strap is missing.
