SHUBU - 10'7"

I wanted a couple of inflatables to add to our fleet, and discovered the SHUBU's are super durable, high quality, boards that feel very much like a rigid board when inflated properly. And are stable enough for anyone to try. Pros I love how anyone can get into SUPing on this board, even my physically disabled friend was able to stand up and love it. They sit high out of the water, so if you bring a child, dog, or gear they stay dry on flat water trips.They fit into a backpack for travel and can go anywhere. Cons The pump that comes with the board is cheap and I upgraded to a K-pump which is a million times better. Also the pocket on the bag is too small for the fin, which is a design flaw, but not really a big deal. Usage We take these boards everywhere, fun for family adventures on the boat, up and down rivers, lake, ocean, touring, and yoga. I love the SHUBU's!

Got this used for a starter board and it has been great! I did buy a Kpump to get to desired PSI, the little tabs on the pump included just didn't quite cut it. Kpump takes a little longer to pump up but is great for the top off! Pros Tie down, portability Cons 3 small fins make tracking tough.. Usage mostly on lakes, once in the gulf and just not ridged enough for surf.

Bought the SHUBU in December 2011 as an xmas gift for us. We used it once in 2012 due to some family circumstances. In 2013, we used the board about 10 times on a local lake. A couple of weeks ago, we got it out to get ready for the season, started pumping it up. We got to 12.5 psi (recommended 14psi) and heard a whistle then all the air escaping. The seam at the back of the board just blew out, about 4", which we cannot patch. I have sent 2 emails (and a 3rd today) with absolutely no response from the company. For the 10 uses we got out of the board, it was fine. As stated in another review, the pump is not that great, and we would usually just get it to 12psi, which was fine for our weights. We are now in the market for another board, which will definitely not be boardworks brand or inflatable. Pros Portability Cons Rendered useless after less than 15 uses by the seam blowing out. No response from the company to emails. Pump not that great. Usage Exercise, touring

It was fun and practical while it worked. Easy for transport on quick trips if undecided if you want to go paddling . Inflatables are my first choice. Pros Very practical, seemed bullet proof. Cons The board bowed a little bit under my 215 lbs. but I only pumped it up to about 11psi. Pump is flimsy but it seems ISUP standard. After about 2 years, the front tip seam became delaminated. It only happened to one out of two boards. Usage Touring

This board as been so great. I have taken the board to Crescent Beach (pacific) in rough and smooth water and has perform very well. It is durable and easy to transport! Pros This board is very stiff for an inflatable. It is vary stable. This is a great board for travelling! Cons it's a little hard to inflate at the end. Usage Exercise, touring and for fun at the lake or ocean.
