Freestyle XL

Just brightens for my wife. Solid and rugged. But only been on it a couple of times. So far so good.used in lakes but no rivers or ocean yet.looking forward to getting g it in the surf. Pros Cons Usage

Bought this board in March for the Summer and I love it. My daughter had a board for a couple of years and I wanted to join her on the water it is great for me. Difficult to carry but my daughter helps and it isn't the end of the world. Been on a lot of lakes in Michigan and in my back yard on the river once and had no problem. Pros It is really stable for beginners which I am and I feel confident on the board. Cons I don't like that I can't really carry the board by myself. Usage I use it for pure joy.

Great as a beginner board, price is almost unbeatable but like a tattoo you get what you pay for and once you get on a better board it's almost night and day...from weight to quality of materials...if you're just testing the "waters" I say go for it but if you have any experience or know you're going to stick with it go for more quality Pros price point Cons heavy, cumbersome Usage exercise and touring

I have had this paddle board for a year now. It needs modifications. And additional long skeg is necessary since this is a wide and short SUP. It is hard to paddle and yaws quite a bit but it is extremely stable. It is fun to play around on our slow moving river, but can be a real pain if you are looking to go for miles. Great price for a play around on product. Pros Stable, good price, kids love it, can be easily modified just takes a little time and extra money Cons Hard to paddle, needs to be modified Usage Touring and playing

This SUP is amazing. I bought it 2 years ago and it still works great. It is dented a little in the middle from too much weight on it, but it doesn't bother me. My board is red and bigger than most paddle boards. I love it so much! Pros I like that it is bigger than most paddle boards because it allows me to sit down, stand up, lay down, move around, and fish off of it. I have never fallen off unless I did it on purpose. I like the double fins. I also like how easy it is to ride and balance. Cons I wish it was a little bit lighter. It is really hard to carry on my own and I usually need help. I wish it was made of foam like most paddle boards but the plastic makes it more strong. Usage I use my board for exercise but mainly just for fun. I paddle around local lakes and rivers, often stopping to fish from my board. I also like to tan on my board.

My friend introduced me to paddleboarding and I rented a Lifetime Freestyle XL board. I felt so comfortable on it and it seemed to navigate well. Since I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a board, not knowing how long I would stick with it, I bought the Freestyle. Pros Great starter board for the money! The paddle is adjustable so that others can use it too. Cons It takes on a bit of water, but that might be related to my weight. Also, a bit heavier than higher end boards. Usage I use it for exercise and for fun!

Not a bad beginner board. It's very wide which makes it easy for beginners to stand on - almost impossible to fall off it. Very heavy on and off the water. Very solid - I've had it blow off the roof of my SUV and just got a few scratches. Pros Wide and stable. Could use it on a river without worrying about banging it up. Comes with adjustable paddle. Cons Heavy on and off the water. Carrying handle is a indented into the board - almost unusable. The Huffy of Paddle boards. Usage beginner SUP on flat lakes, exercise, touring

Great board it is fun for the whole family you glide through the water effortlessly.The board is lite enough to get in and out of the water.Comes with a paddle that you can adjust,so you don't have added expense. Pros No slip pads and color.works well for beginners and experts Cons Didn't come with lynard but can buy one reasonable Usage Exercise & touring

Such a great quality board! i bought the 2 pack from costco and i love it! i took them out in a saltwater bay and the ocean and they were wonderful.I would not want any other board. Pros amazing quality, great price. best deal. Cons nothing i dont like. amazing! Usage just to i guess you could say cruise in the bay and what not

Great beginner board Pros Very stable Easy to begin to get use to standing and maneuvering board. Cons Very heavy and large Usage Exercise and touring.

It is a good deal for an entry level paddle board and it is super stable. It is very heavy to carry however and really needs a well placed carry handle. Pros Well priced and very stable Cons Very heavy and hard to carry Usage Mostly on a lake and quite often

So far this has been a fun SUP on the flat lake behind my house. It's easy to balance on and goes fairly straight. Pros Easy to balance on, fins help with going straight Cons The paddle leaves a little to be desired, but it can be replaced. Usage Mostly exercise on the lake, thought about trying to fish off it, but currently I'm not quite stable enough.

Nice board. Especially for the beginners to intermediate. Heavy construction. Very stable, safe, and durable. Great for kids, teenagers, beginners... I really love my lifetime stand up board sup freestyle. Pros Stable, safe Cons Heavy Usage Touring, exercise, racing

I bought this board as a Christmas gift for my daughter. She has been bugging me for months about one. This board is big, looks like it is stable and will be hard for her to damage. I didn't want to spend a arm and a leg on something she may not use that often so this was the perfect choice. She can learn on this one and then move up to something else. Now all she has to do is wait till spring. Pros Looks very stable, comfortable, great inexpensive first board and it's plastic so it will not damage easily. Cons Heavy for someone small. Usage Lakes and inlets.

I bought this board to try out stand up paddle boarding on lakes and the cheseapeake bay. It was priced very low on sale, and for the money I think it was a good investment. However it is definitely entry level and probably not suited for advanced paddlers. I will keep this paddleboard even when I upgrade for friends and family to use. I am giving this board 4 stars, not because it is the best board, but because it was such a good buy and seems to be super durable. Pros It is easy to balance as a first timer. It was inexpensive (relative to other paddleboards) It is a tank. It feels very durable and seems like you could throw it off a building and it would still be functional. Cons It is heavy and awkward to move alone. It takes on water on long trips (>1 hr). It seems slow compared to other paddleboards I have used since buying this one. Usage I use it for general fitness and fun exploring the bay, lakes, and other waters.

Very stable. I am able to crab off it in the Puget sound Pros Wide. Stable Cons Slow. Awkward to carry and put into and out of water. Usage Surf, exercise

Wonderful Board! I took it fishing several times already and was very stable when doing so. Although the board is slow it is incredibly stable Pros Easy to ride, great for fishing, great for beginners Cons Slow, Difficult to navigate, heavy Usage surf

A good stable cheap(on sale) board but I am more than 30 pounds under the max weight and still stand in water while paddling. Still it is the most comfortable of the 3 boards I have tried so far. Pros Price. Comfort. Looks-the blue looks cool on the lake. Cons Needs more handles and a deeper center carry handle. Deck rigging is thin,too stretchy and there is not enough room to store much. Standing in water. Usage Lake

I am a beginner paddle boarder and this board was easy to move from sitting to kneeling to standing. It was stable in all positions and comfortable to my knees which get tired easily. Also while standing I did not experience foot or leg fatigue because the surface has some flexibility. Seems a little slower than my friend's board. For me it tracks ok but my friend thinks her board (pelican flow) tracks better. Pros Easy and stable for a beginner to change positions. comfortable to knees and ankles. Easy for 2 people to put on top of car. Price Cons Water comes on top board when heavier people ride (180 lbs. +) Usage On lake

Great beginner board, all 5 family members love it for fun on the lake. Pros price Cons with my 230lbs it tends to sit pretty low in the water and looses some air thru the vent plugs. A little heavy. Usage used for flat water exercise, fishing and fun

Great overall board. Pros Smooth cutting in water. Economical. Cons Heavy Usage Heavy
