My review is after just two uses, so I have no input on longevity. It seems sturdy, however, although I note that the accessories (phone bag, carrying backpack) seem pretty cheaply made.
I've been wanting an SUP for a while, and I purchased this during prime day kind of on a whim. I didn't do much research. I think I may have bought a ROC paddleboard if I had done more research, but I was going mostly on price and this one was on a flash deal and selling out. For the price-point (I paid $160, I believe), this has so far been a solid purchase. Overall a good entry point to the world of SUPing.
My biggest complaint with this SUP is that it is wider than the boards that I typically use-- to be fair, this is very clearly advertised by Niphean. I also think that this may end up being a benefit if I purchase accessories (such a kayak seat) or ever try to bring my dog. It was very easy to balance on because of the width, but slightly harder to maneuver. Otherwise, the board itself looks very nice and was easy to inflate with an automatic/car pump (I did not attempt to do this manually). I was also surprised by how light and easy to carry this board is-- both when inflated and folded into the backpack. It was easy and quick to deflate the board and to fold it into the backpack with all of it's accessories, although I do worry that the backpack itself is not long for the world.
