Bestway Hydro-Force White Cap 10' Inflatable Stand Up Paddle Board Kayak Water Set with Aluminum Oar, Hand Pump, and Travel Bag, White

First, let me just say that I am PETITE. I am 5'1" and 97 lbs. I am also a 53 year old athletic woman. I own a kayak and purchased this because it has become difficult getting the kayak in the water alone. So I was hoping this paddle board would become the ticket I needed to fill the need for me being able to get this in my car and the water ALONE. I am happy to report, it did the trick. I can now sell my Kayak. I received this 3 days earlier than expected. Which was good because I was upset I wasn't going to have it for the weekend, but I did. Although it was Prime, for some reason, after I purchased it, it said I would not have it until 5 days later. However, I did receive it two days after I ordered it. It was a good sign of things to come. Everything arrived in perfect condition. The box is big and pretty heavy. FedEx did a great job with delivery. Once I removed everything, I was delighted to see the quality of the paddle board. I saw some little bumps as another reviewer stated, but once inflated, they are gone. Even if they stayed, I would not have cared as the quality is exceptional regardless. As others stated, it was easy to pump up until the last 5 psi. It took about 20 minutes total. I suggest that in the end stretch, lock your arms and use the weight of your body to pump it. The pump is fine. It worked wonderfully. Nothing wrong with it. As I said, I'm 97 lbs. if I can handle it, an average size adult should not have a problem. Just lock your arms and use the weight of your body on the pump, not arm strength. Once inflated, I was blown away at the quality of this board. Keep in mind, this paddle board is 10 ft. It's a normal size paddle board. If your looking for a shorter board, this is not the one to purchase. It may be a bit lighter to carry, but it's a standard size board. Again, this board is SOLID! On the water today (I live in Fort Lauderdale so I took it out in the intercoastal which leads to the Atlantic Ocean). I was blown away at its performance. It was steady as can be. It maneuvered amazingly. The paddle was fine. It's not heavy (coming from a 97 lb woman). I used it both as Kayak style (without the seat) and standup. This board is buoyant as can be. It performed and maneuvered perfectly. This board is lighter than a normal board but it is still cumbersome. If you are my size and not in good shape, this board will be a handful. I say that because it's a regular size paddle board. It's not shorter. It's only a bit lighter. The only difference in this board and a non inflatable SUP is the weight. Other than that, you are getting a lighter paddle board of incredible quality. Go for it, you won't be disappointed.

To say I love this board would be an understatement. I did weeks of research after deciding I wanted a board. I knew having a real one wasn’t realistic and the inflatable seemed like the easiest method for me due to not having a truck or SUV. For starters, the packaging is great. Comes all in one box. Be careful not to toss out the pressure gauge. I read other reviews stating this and I’m glad I did because I almost tossed it out. Everything fits in the bag really nicely although the bag is quite large and awkward to carry. This wasn’t an issue for me but could be for someone who is a bit smaller. I ended up buying the “OKPOW Electric Portable Air Pump 110V AC/12V DC Quick-Fill Air Pump for Inflatables Air Mattress Raft Bed Boat Pool Toy” after reading reviews about the hand pump being pretty taxing. I didn’t bother and I’m too impatient to hand pump anyway. I plugged the pump right in my car and it filled up nicely. I did have to hand pump the last few pumps but that’s personal preference. The pressure gauge didn’t work for my car pump but only for the hand pump but didn’t make a difference. I filled it up to where I felt hard enough to not make a bend in the middle and that was plenty. If you’re used to using a normal paddle board, I’d try an inflatable one before buying. It’s quite different since the inflatable so much lighter. This wasn’t an issue to me since I’m new to paddle boarding and didn’t have much to compare it to. I use mine in the ocean in the pan handle of Florida and this thing is incredible. I do have a bit of an issue standing when there’s rough water or boat wake but I think part of that would be me being newer to paddle boarding. This thing is also really fun to just hang out on. Ive played catch on this, done handstands, and simply just floated with the water. If you’re looking for a good priced, well made, and easily transportable paddle board- this is the one for you.

I've been using this for a week now, and I absolutely love it. I have a few thoughts that I'd just like to share. I'm a moderately skilled SUP boarder with a lot of experience on different types of boards so Pros:It's super easy to inflate and deflate and it's not too heavy to carry. It has a lot of different pieces, but their uses are all clear. It's not too difficult to inflate, and I've had very little trouble with it. It's very sturdy, and the padding is comfortable. I love this board and it's been perfect for me. It's very sturdy. Cons: The paddle doesn't extend very far. I'm six feet tall and I have the paddle extended to the maximum 83 inches. The fins don't come off the board when it's deflated, and as a result it doesn't quite fit in the bag well enough for the bag to zip closed properly. The fins also prevent everything else from fitting into the bag at the same time. The carrying bag is significantly larger than I expected it to be, and is actually the size of a hiking bag, not a duffle bag. Even when the board is inflated to the recommended 15 psi it seems to ride very low in the water and is very sensitive to the way you shift your weight, as a result it shakes a lot and the top of the board is usually wet. This doesn't affect me, but a less experienced boarder might have more trouble with this. The nozzle on the board that you inflate it with seems sturdy and I'm not worried about it breaking or leaking, but the cover doesn't attach all the way. The box came with a huge tear along the side of it, but none of the items inside the box were damaged. Bottom line, this board is great and I highly recommend it as a beginners or intermediate board.

We really wanted to get paddle boards this year because I love the sun and grew up on the water! I wanted something I could do by myself without having to have help. I have several chronic health conditions that cause a lot of pain, weakness, make me tired, ect... We usually go places as a family and I don’t have to do any work, but as kids age and I need to fill my days, strengthen my aging body and calm my mind, I want to have this as a resource to me that I can do when the lake is not frozen. I managed to walk up and down a steep and rocky hill with my board, my paddle tucked into the bungees on the board, I wore my lifejacket and had my backpack on. I did it all by myself! The hand pump gets a tiring, but I have an air compressor at home I can fill it with beforehand and easily strap it on my car. Coming home I can deflate it quickly & throw it in the back. I spray it down at home, make sure it’s dry before packing it back up. Pro’s ; I like that I can handle this board easily by myself! I like that it is easy to store & travel with! I like the backpack bag everything goes in! I loved the price! I like that it can be used like a kayak with the seat and foot bar, I don’t care too much for the kayak paddle. There are bungee cords to store your stuff up front. There are several hooks to clamp onto along the board. I also liked the accessible room on the board for people, dogs, ect to lay on. Some boards are not flat like this. There is a rope that attaches to ankle in case you fall off. (This is great but plain black cheap rope with cheap velcro.) Cons; (Just cosmetic-lol)The rope that attaches to the ankle. Other boarders had one that was bright and coiled. (They looked cool instead of a lame black rope and Velcro.) You might want to buy after market ones and clamps to tie other passengers or a dog life vest to the board too so everyone is not all over the place if the board is dumped over. There are a few places to put hooks. There can never be enough storage. There is not an air tight storage like a hard side board. Maybe bring some extra bungee cords and C clamps to hold things down. A water proof bag would be good. Towing ropes are something we thought we could bring next time too. Only because I am have chronic medical conditions and sometimes I am just done! We brought our big 65 pound standard poodles and had them lay straight on the board in front of us while sitting. I used the seat, the kayak bar but did not use the kayak paddle as it drips too much water in there eyes. The paddle board paddle keeps them dryer, calmer and steadier! I do wish there was more hooks bungees or padding on the back of the board. When we go out, we tend to load up the boards take our hammocks, a cooler and head to where cars and most people can’t go. We have had a great time with the boards this first year as a family. We bought three inflatables and one hard side. All we a great deal, but I like this the best so far! The end of summer deals are awesome! We have older teens, but I have seen all ages on their own paddle boards, all kinds of people, all kinds of dogs! It was easy to handle except in the wind. If your healthy and strong, you should be ok! The board itself seems stable as long as there is not someone throwing off your balance( including you). It inflates easy but it is a work out for most of us. Take turns. The last little bit is hard to do. We have a big air compressor at home and use that. A small float air compressor for your car will not do this job! The less air in the board, the lower you are in the water. It makes it harder to maneuver. I would definitely buy or recommend this inflatable paddle board/ kayak again for the price and features, durability it offers so far for the first year!

I just moved to a lake and decided it would probably be cheaper to buy my own SUP than to rent every time I wanted to go out. You cannot beat this price! Inflating was easy, I do agree though that getting it to 12psi is close to impossible, I wear about 130 and I only got it to 9psi and it still worked fine for me. I’ve had all of summer now (3 months) and have loved every second of it! It’s super durable, I have taken my 40lb dog on it! The colors are beautiful, and it’s only 35lbs inflated so honestly carrying it isn’t bad, just be careful of wind cause it will knock you over. I bring it on my boat too and tie it up whole anchored and use it as a tanning/inflatable bed. It’s amazing how easy it is to get on and off of, never have I flipped it over while getting on. We will even put food and drinks on it and use it as a table while swimming! I 100% recommend this SUP for beginners. I never paddle boarded in my life and bought this out of impulse and have never regretted it! And the fact that it can be used as a kayak makes it even better! Here are just some quick things I think people should know (things that I looked for in the reviews before buying it) 1. It took me 10-15 minutes to inflate and I’m a 130lb 24 year old woman 2. My dogs nails have not yet punctured or scratched it (and she has longer nails cause of her short quicks) 3. It’s easy to transport, blown up or not. I put mine in the back of my convertible and carry it onto my boat all the way across a dock and it’s super easy 4. Easy to balance and soft on your feet 5. I would think this SUP should cost $500 or more!

Obviously, this is one of the cheapest inflatables on the market. I was skeptical but willing to take the risk. I have used it 5+ times...2-3 times as an SUP and 2-3 times as a kayak. I am not disappointed at all. Great value for the price. I stay above the water at a weight of 160ish pounds, plus a backpack cooler on occasion. If you’re comparing to other inflatables, I do think there are sturdier ones. But this one is made of great material and has withheld so far. Inflatable SUPS in general are harder to maneuver in windy and wavy conditions. I find this product to be a step above the others because on those windy days, I am able to use the kayak conversion and still go out with my friends. I do not find it to be more “tippy” than other inflatables I’ve used. It came with everything needed...a hand pump, kayak seat, kayak footrest, kayak paddle, SUP paddle, foot leash, and carrying pack. (I did have to buy a life jacket of course) It takes me about 10-15 minutes to blow up. The last few minutes are the hardest to get it to the correct pressure. But nothing I can’t handle. Best impulse purchase I’ve made in a long time! After 10 uses, I will have made up the price instead of renting them. Plus, it’s easy to transport in my car and go wherever I want to! Definitely recommend.

We took it out for a weekend on the lake and it was better than I was expecting! I was worried since it is inflatable but that was our only option to fit it on our boat when not in use. It deflated and slid right into the ski locker, no problem. It is super sturdy! It held my husband, who is about 240, just fine. Our daughter and her friend rode on it together with no problem and they have a combined weight of about 240 also. Once inflated it's hard to tell it is an inflatable board. It arrived less than 24 hours after I placed my order and came very well packaged. It has everything included to get you out on the water, other than a life vest. It is exceptional for exploring around rocks and the shoreline. There is a handle on the topside to help with getting it in and out of the water. It is quite large (average for a paddle board) but I was able to handle it out of the water...I'm a 5'2" 40 yr old woman and about 135 lbs, slightly athletic...lol. If you're looking for an inflatable board, don't hesitate, this one is FANTASTIC!

I have 2 huge problems and two really annoying design challenges. Other than those, I find it a great SUP for the price... for beginners & families. First off, it’s great for the kids, with no sharp edges, it fits 3 of them and is stable enough for them to paddle and use as a diving platform. They’ve also bumped against rocks from time to time with almost no additional signs of wear. The possibility to switch the paddle and and the seat for sit on top kayak mode is the reason why I bought it and I haven’t been disappointed at all in how it handles in that mode. BUT, getting the seat on (never mind the footrests) is a pain: the straps were not designed for quicky swapping the seat on & off. Once on, it’s a good comfortable ride and seat adjustment works just fine. In actual SUP mode, however, it stinks (at least mine does). It glides as well as you could expect a low-end inflatable to glide, but not in the direction I’d want it to go. That’s because the one I received not only had the fins put on crooked, but the whole board is warped as well, meaning I can pretty much only paddle on one side to have any hope to go straight. Yes, I should have exchanged it, but it was just too much of a pain. My final gripe is the backpack it came in. Insanely thin, it came with a small tear in it, and with only a couple of careful uses of just a couple of minutes’ walking to and from the parking lot, it has a few more so I don’t trust it any further.... and that was without trying to also stuff all the equipment and accessories back into it! It’s just way too small and way too weak. So tirade aside, I didn’t have any problems with the pump as a number of people have written, and if I didn’t get a warped lemon with poor fin alignment I would have been a happy enough camper to give this a 4-star rating.

Ottimo prodotto ben accessoriato. Regge il mio peso di 87kg senza problemi, si gonfia a 15psi quindi diventa molto rigida, sembra di resina. Attenzione al manometro per la pompa: è in una scatola di polistirolo che può essere scambiata per un pezzo dell'imballaggio ed essere cestinata per errore! Molto stabile e facile da usare anche con in mar con le onde. Grande acquisto, lo consiglio

Nous l'avons essayée pour la première fois en vacances cet été et a ma grande surprise la pagaie double a coulée immédiatement. Je n ai pu la récupérer car c était par 20m de fond. Je n arrive pas a comprendre comment une pagaie puisse couler aussi rapidement. Je dirais meme que cela aurait pu être dangereux!! Avis au futur acheteur. Remplissez les tubes de mousse polyuréthane. J'ai informé Bestway et Sportdepot et depuis j'ai été complétement ignoré Afin de pouvoir utiliser la SUP, je suis allé chez Decathlon pour acheter une nouvelle pagaie. Pas impressionné par leur rapport clientele! J'attends toujours qu'ils me contactent mais sans beaucoup d'espoir.

Nach mehrfacher Benutzung, auf und abpumpen habe ich mich entschieden jetzt darüber zu berichten. Wir wohnen an der Ostsee, das Board wurde also vorrangig fürs Salzwasser gekauft. Das Paket kam sehr pünktlich an in einem großen Karton, alles gut verpackt und beschriftet wie man das Paket NICHT öffnen sollte (um Beschädigungen zu vermeiden) Also ausgepackt und Bedienungsanleitung gesucht , diese ist sehr kurz und nicht großartig hilfreich aber geht auch so. Das Board riecht nicht nach Chemie und auch nicht unangenehm. Das erste aufpumpen ging schon super und auch alle Verklebungen an der Seite waren fachgerecht gemacht ohne sichtbare Qualitätsmängel/Fehler. Es war an Zubehör auch alles dabei, also die beiden Paddelarten, Sitz, ReparaturFlicken, Pumpe und die Anzeige für den LuftDruck sowieso auch der Rucksack zum verstauen. Und gerade dieser Rucksack war am EinfassBand leider beschädigt. Es hat den Gebrauch nicht beeinflusst , dennoch habe ich mich mit dem Kundendienst in Kontakt gesetzt per Website die schon wirklich umfangreich ist. Die Email wurde innerhalb einer Woche freundlich beantwortet und 1 Woche später wurde mir der Rucksack durch einen neuen ersetzt. Auch beim Luft ablassen geht es sehr schnell durch den Druck ist man in ca 3 min durch, das Verpacken und Verstauen im Rucksack war die ersten male sehr schwierig. Mit ein bisschen Übung ist jetzt alles in 5 min verstaut und passt auch in den Rucksack (zumindestens das Board) Zubehör packen wir nicht vollständig da rein um nicht das Board zu beschädigen. DaS Fahrerlebnis ist echt entspannt. Es lässt sich gut lenken und liegt stabil auf dem Wasser auch beim Wellengang , ich fahre regelmäßig zusammen mit meinen Kindern (1 & 5 Jahre) auf dem Board. Die beiden sind auch begeistert davon. Zusammengefasst ist das Preis Leistungsverhältnis sehr gut. Die Qualität lässt bis jetzt nichts zu wünschen übrig und stellt uns vollkommen zufrieden. Für uns 5 Sterne wert.

Calidad/precio inmejorable. Se hincha en 8 min. con la bomba manual que trae. Muy estable y cómoda tanto si se usa como sup o como kayak. La bolsa de transporte es un poco justa, pero con un poco de práctica entra todo( menos las palas de los remos). Estoy encantado con la compra.

Il SUP è arrivato prima della consegna prevista. Abbiamo avuto un piccolo problema poiché la valvola di gonfiaggio era difettosa. Con la procedura di reso nel giro di pochi giorni abbiamo ottenuto la sostituzione del prodotto e di tutti gli accessori compresi. Dopo più utilizzi mi posso ritenere più che soddisfatta per il prodotto in sè e per il servizio ricevuto.
