I used this board at a local lake during a class offered by the Parks. I was surprised by how easy to the board was to carry and how stable it was on the water. We practiced some stability moves and I found you really have to try hard to fall in. We practiced different paddling and toured around the lake and I found that the board was very easy to maneuver. I am looking forward to using this board again.
Pros
Easy to carry; stable; easy to maneuver; good for beginners
Cons
Wish they were more affordable
Usage
Exercise and touring

Borrowed a friends sup for use during the week on a lake vacation. Great, packable, sturdy inflatable sup. Whole family, young and not so young used it while on vacation. Even the youngest were able to maneuver and enjoy. Tracks well. Lots of fun and only takes up the space of a large backpack. Amazing how stiff and sturdy even with larger users. Would recommend to other beginners.
Pros
Inexpensive, well made, sturdy and packable.
Cons
Usage
Lake cruising.

Took some time getting use to since it was my first inflatable. Great beginner board, good stability for flat water and easy rivers. Easy to carry and pumps up in about 10 minutes. I was able to paddle with my 20 pound dog without any difficulties. Company is known for standing behind their products.
Pros
Liked the 6 inch height provides better stability and keeps feet from getting wet. Light weight and easy to handle.
Cons
Paddle is heavy.
No bungee system for attaching gear up front.
Would like to try Yoga but board seems to short.
Usage
Exercise paddling in reservoir.

The board pumed up easily. It was stiff just like a hard board. It glided through the water effortlessly. I was able to catch a few small waves but not the ideal board for surfing.
Pros
Light weight and easy to carry and move around
Cons
Not the easiest board for surfing
Usage
Exercise and surfing

I first tried this paddle board last summer after having used numerous other brands. I live near a large lake with smaller 1 to 2 foot waves and boy was the board a blast! It's versatile enough to ride the waves smoothly while handling great in flat water tours. What'unique about this board is its ability to serve so many needs in the water. Whether I want to attempt a long trip across our lake or navigate through the rivers and streams, this board holds up. Finally, Tower has fantastic customer service and gives reliable information. Unfortunately, because money is tight in our family I am only able to rent them out to use but I hope someday I will be a to buy one of my own to share with my wife and son!
Pros
Weight, durability, and handling!
Cons
None

A beginner SUP, one that you can grow with. Great on calm waters, yet stable in waves up to 3ft. They say it will float up to a 250 lb paddler.
Pros
Weight, easily handled by one person compared to other boards.
Cons

I found the Tower Fit to be a versatile, lightweight and sturdy board. The nose has enough lift to prevent a nosedive in moderate surf, but I could envision needing a more surf-friendly board as I progress as a surfer. It handled quite well on flat water, but I would prefer a bit less volume while surfing. As a SUP novice, I feel that this board is a good choice as an affordable, first board.
Pros
Weight, length, width, durability
Cons
Volume, nose
Usage
Flatwater, surfing
