Find Best Price at Amazon"My friend who turned me onto SUP works at a shop that only sells YOLO boards and that is all they use personally, as well. I had only used a regular SUP so I can't compare to other iSUP boards but this one is really easy to get around. Hubby was convinced the gauge wasn't working but I had read about it taking a while to register and told him to keep going. That being said, it isn't terrible and I decided to buy board #2 rather than shelling out the money for a carbon paddle. I tell you this because with getting on and off the board in the middle of the lake --dragging my body out of a fresh water lake is not as easy as the brakish water I am used to in FL-- sunscreen got on the white portion and make it look yellow/dirty. We used them 2 days in a row and I decided packing them up wet is okay but I will always wash them right when I get home from now on. I used a sponge and a cleaner that has oils in it because I don't want to dry it out really bad with constant use to clean them. I also washed the poles and turned the bags inside out and sprayed them down --I don't want any weird odors from lake water having dried on them. To make sure it was gonna work with the board the guy went out and looked at it with me. Out at the lake a few people commented on how nice they looked =) I really like that the paddles match the boards. For 1- no one can take MY paddle (I am at the point I am getting over the "what is mine is yours" aspect of parenting, haha), and 2- I can see from pretty far if the people on the SUPs out there belong to me! I got 2 right away because hubby was getting ready to go on a long trip for work and I wanted us to be able to SUP together rather than taking turns."
"Practice or take the manual with you if you can’t remember how the valve is supposed to be to cut off air flow. I am very accustomed to 11-12 foot hard boards, and I SUP on the Potomac River in DC which is generally flat but sees its share of wake from boats, scullers, and currents. Disassembling was easy, but the bag seams are not very well constructed so be careful when you zip it up and be patient. In summary: Pros: Affordable, beautiful board, seems durable, easy assembly, light to carry once inflated, soft cushy foot board, sturdy tether ropes to keep your stuff in place. Cons: Not as stable as a hard board, you feel every ripple of water underneath you which can feel alarming, no Go Pro mount for those who want one, VERY heavy which may make traveling with it hard and that's why I bought it. ****Late season update:****. I'm back to give a little more of a review to the board. Think like you’re working on the railroad and do some squats while you pump it for an easier experience. I used the glue in the repair kit to patch it but it didn't seem to work because every time some water gets on the surface of the board, it bubbles and hisses. I'm still trying to get to them after sending an email, phone call, left a voicemail; and a message on Instagram. It's just a little tough and there are sharp corners that form that kind of scare me that they're going to wear or something. I really want to keep this board around for a long time, and I don't always have the budget to buy it, so that makes me nervous. I’ve been stopped so many times by curious paddlers asking where I got it and complimenting me on it, so I highly recommend it. Still staying with 4 stars because of the difficulty I had reaching out to Isle about the scratch."
"Do yourself a favor.. if you have been searching for the perfect beginner/recreational iSUP.. BUY THIS BOARD."
"I liked the SUP, until the seams gave way after only using 3 times."

I needed a wetsuit for kayaking (specifically a surfski) so I purchased it one size up so I would have a little extra room for my shoulders for paddling and my backside for sitting."
"I recently purchased this suit and i do like the way it fits, how i can zip it up myself, and my neckline is comfortable with the strap. I even began to have headaches due to the smell and had nowhere else to put it so i took it out of my car and hung it up somewhere in my backyard, 50 feet away from the closest window."
"I'm a cold diver even in warm (80 - 82 degree) water, so I bought this wetsuit to go diving in Grand Cayman."
"I swim in chlorinated water and rinse the suit after each use."
"I'm not using the wetsuit until January but I wanted to leave an initial review to hopefully help people with sizing."
"He is growing at a fast rate and I expect that the room will allow him to wear the suit into next winter."
"I used it to stay warm while I swam with manatees in ~60 degree water--it kept my teeth from chattering for hours."
"This wet suit wreeked like pot from the initial day of opening the package and still 4 months later!"
A great fit, maximum sun protection, and cleanly designed graphics make the O'Neill Basic Skins Rash Tee a must-have for fun in the water and sun. Flatlock construction with breathable, overlapping flat-stitched seams offers chafe-free comfort and superb durability for warmer conditions.

"Love the shirt and it fits and looks great but bummed out a hole developed :-/."
"I followed the size chart and ordered the 2XL recommended for my weight."
"I found myself wearing this shirt even when we were not going swimming."
"I bought this for my dad for his vacation and he really loved it."
"I also ordered the long-sleeve version O'Neill Wetsuits UV Sun Protection Mens Basic Skins Long Sleeve Tee Sun Shirt Rash Guard, Black, Large which is just as well made."
"So if you want a rash guard for casual use then this is a great option but if you’re going to do laps I recommend the Quicksilver All Time rash guard because it’s very form fitting."
"Shirt arrived soiled, stained, and filthy."
Best Surf Board Leashes

"The leash is high quality and the pouch came as a bonus."
"I can put my iPod in it and listen to music without fearing that it will be ruined if I fall in the water."
"The method of attachment would work on virtually any kind of board."
"I am a casual SUP rider who primarily paddles in the calm lake behind the house, so didn't think I needed these."
"I bought it to use with a paddle board that I also recently purchased (yes, I'm a newbie and planned on falling a lot)."
"The rack of our paddle boards are back and leashes didn't tangle while padding."
"This is the second storm sup leash I've purchased in the past couple weeks."
Best Surfing Fins

"I am a novice to SUP -- my son and I managed to ground the fin on a borrowed Yoga board, and when we returned from the island we had paddled to, we noticed it was missing."
"I strapped its dead body to my board like some kind of Acanthaspis petax, the rest of the sharks left me alone."
"The fin that came with my SUP board broke, and this is a far superior product. I have never see a fin with a fin protector made for it (removable, of course)."
"The best part was the great customer service - emails to give me more background on the product, when it was sent, how it was packed so I wouldn't miss anything in the box."
"The traditional screws never stay, and I've lost a fin with them."
"That's how I lost the pro fin-it was loose and by the time I made it to shore- it was gone because I didn't have a screwdriver to tighten it up!"
"It's so refreshing to find a company that truly cares about their customers and ensures that all purchases are to your liking."
Best Indoor Stand-Up Paddleboard Storage
For board fit, there is a generous 12" of space between the arms on the rack, which gives you plenty of room for paddleboards with big fins. Thick foam padded rack arms protect your SUPs while stored.
Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"First, as some reviewers mentioned, the screws/bolts are poor given how long and thick they are ... go buy something similar at the local hardware store."
"I put it right into studs so I drilled 4 holes, screwed in the two racks, and popped on the 4 poles. My boards stick out beyond the end of the poles, but there is no risk of the board sliding off."
"The racks are very easy to install, you just need to find the studs and then mark your drill points level."
"I had to turn the board upside down and it still has part of it resting on the metal part that has no padding."
"It took the most time to find the 2x6 studs in the garage wall, measure and mark the wall where it would be mounted."
"Very easy to install and well made, the brackets appear to be powder coated and should hold up well in the weather."
"We purchased 3 of these..fit our Boardwork Tracker board, prone board and yoga boards just find."
"I have 2 of these and they hold 2 windsurfing boards and 6 sails, masts and booms."
Best Stand-Up Paddleboard Accessories
Paddleboards are not light, so we worked to improve the quality of our buckle to hold your board and withstand all the beach elements. The idea of these straps is to carry the weight of your board on your shoulder. TWO INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH VELCRO STRAPS: Not only does our strap have Velcro to hold your paddle, but the Velcro is so strong that you can now use your paddle as a handle.

"I like that it has clips and swivels on each side to make it easier to get it on your shoulder and eliminate twists, that was one of the main reasons I purchased this one over other brands."
"With this carry system, I can easily strap this to a duffle for shoulder carry."
"Many other paddleboarders have looked at this when I carry my board to the lake and ask where I got it from."
"I've been looking for an easier way to carry my board which led me to your straps."
"I got the SUP straps for my kayak after Brian and his company gave me enough info to think they could work."
"It works great on my board."
"He completely stands by his product and if you're considering purchasing these straps, I would highly recommend it."
Best Stand-Up Paddleboard Bags
These bags do a superb job of protecting your precious 2- Piece or 3-Piece paddle from scratches and damage when travelling in vehicles or planes, plus to and from the water - AND they have a heat reflective internal lining to protect your paddle when it is lying in the sun. These bags do a superb job of protecting your precious paddles from scratches and damage when travelling in vehicles or planes, plus to and from the water - AND they have a heat reflective internal lining to protect your paddle when it is lying in the sun. On top of protecting your paddle these bags make carrying multiple paddles super quick and easy – as extra paddles can easily attach to the outside of the bag in seconds making the trip from the car to the water super quick if carrying more than one paddle - and also works if you have several bags as they can easily attach to each other. The bags slim design removes any excess material, while at 2150mm long it can take a full length uncut paddle - or for shorter paddles or those that can 'adjust down' a handy velcro strap takes any excess bag and folds it back on itself and then attaches.
Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"The velcro isn't long enough to wrap around the blade section of the bag, so I have to fold it back on itself and connect it in the middle. I don't expect it to last forever, but it's a no-brainer to protect a $200 paddle with a $20 bag."
"Very nice paddle bag at a great price!"
"Update Sep 2015: Bought yet another bag, this time for a Kialoa Insanity, as always the bag is nicely finished and excellent value for money."
"I travel a lot and needed a durable padded bag to protect my Werner Rip Stick 2 carbon paddle."
"After just one weekend to and from the water, my SUP paddle already had a tiny little knick in it and was getting dirty."
"product arrived quickly and in good order."
"Well worth the money to protect my 3 piece ISLE carbon paddle."
"It's a good bag, looks like it will do a good job protecting my paddle(s)."

"Ordered this to replace paddle that came with our paddleboard and was lost."
"My family loved it perfect for my 6 ft son and 2 small granddaughters."
"In retrospect I think I would have purchased a 3 piece because the 2 piece is a little cumbersome to fit in my car."
"Whoever packed this must have been a stoned teenager with a cruel sense of humor, and a grudge against postal workers."
"The paddle was used the day we unpacked it and all weekend long."
