Ten feet of deck with a 30-inch beam gives a single paddler a wide stance to work from, and the board carries up to 300 pounds so a dog or a small cooler can ride along. A reinforced drop stitch core sits between a laminated PVC skin and double-layer PVC sidewalls, which is what lets the board hold 12 to 15 psi and stay rigid underfoot instead of flexing at the middle. Non-slip EVA foam runs down the standing area for grip on wet feet. Inflation takes about five minutes with the included hand pump, and the built-in gauge shows when the board reaches working pressure. The center fin pulls off without tools, so tracking can be set up for flat lake water or shallow rivers. Deflated, the 21.5-pound board rolls into the carry backpack for a trunk or a closet.
