We've tried again and again to enjoy the convenience of an inflatable paddle board, but have been thwarted every time by the lack of functionality in the boards. This all changed the day we tried the Tower Adventurer inflatable sup. It has a rigid feel that keeps your feed dry as you paddle over the waves, yet is compact and stores easily when not in use. Not only did it perform great in the water, but the ease of getting it from our car and out into the water is unparalleled. The hand pump worked phenomenally, and the board was lightweight and easy to carry. We truly believe this is the BEST inflatable SUP out there, and invite you to come check it out for yourself!
