As great as everyone says!
I really love my SUP. There reviews were so good, however, that I thought it was maybe a scam. Turns out, it's just a really awesome product. Super stable, effortless, and pretty fast (for a novice). I have been so happy with the product and overall experience.

United StatesQuality Product
The website was easy to navigate and most of the questions I had as a first time paddle board owner were answered from the site. The board I purchased was a birthday gift for my 15 year old daughter. It arrived on time, not damaged at all and was well protected for shipping. My daughter was present when it arrived and she helped to open it. She was surprised and loves it. It’s solid and much better quality than any you could find at a regular retail store that sells a like product. Needless to say, it was a great purchase and we look forward to many years of enjoyment with it. Dominick A. Georgia, USA

United StatesBuy this SUP!!
I’m so glad I found Paddleboard Direct. Glenn was so informative and knows so much about paddleboarding. There are a ton of things you don’t know and need to consider before buying a board. Paddleboard Direct takes the time to ask who is going to use the board, how tall they are and so on. Very important questions to get the correct board. They offer wide boards which makes floating much more steady. We love our board, bought a second board and per Glenn’s suggestion bought the carbon paddles - super light and not hard on the arms.Thank you Paddleboard Direct for helping us have a wonderful Paddleboard experience!

Feather-Lite Construction
Cruiser SUP Ultra-Lite boards offers a class leading, user friendly "soft & tough", high quality molded bamboo/carbon/Kevlar construction.
Tough: In addition to three layers of 4oz. fiberglass on top and 4oz/6oz layers on bottom, (5 layers of fiberglass wrapping the rails), there is full-length .5mm real bamboo veneer reinforcement (stronger than fiberglass) sandwiched between the first and second fiberglass layers on top and bottom. Carbon reinforcement in the standing area to prevent heel dents (PVC also added for the VMax). Kevlar cloth is added to the rails, nose and tail for extra ding resistance.
The quality CNC shaped 18kg EPS core is strong to prevent heel dents. This combination is vacuum molded for extra strength, impact resistance, lighter weight and accurate shape. The rails are painted in matte finish for improved performance and custom look. The result is a strong and durable premium construction.

Love it
So happy I purchased this board. It's lightweight and easy for me to transport. It's beautiful and sturdy. Everything was easy including assistance from Glenn in choosing the right board to the shipping company (their employees at the terminal were super helpful above what they're required to do).I ordered my board late summer so haven't used it a lot but can't wait to take it out to the other places I love next summer. Thank you Cruiser SUP!

Probably one of the best larger purchases I made without even seeing or feeling the item. Glenn was also a tremendous help with answering all the questions I had. Fairly new to SUP and I’m extremely pleased with my purchase. Quick shipping and no issues at all. I’ve even been telling people in stores to check out paddleboarddirect.com before buying one in a store . Thanks again!

BOARD CONSTRUCTION
Feather-Lite Construction
Cruiser Ultra-Lite All Terrain and All Wave boards offers a class leading "tough", high quality bamboo construction.
Tough: In addition to three layers of 4oz. fiberglass on top and 4oz/6oz layers on bottom, (5 layers of fiberglass wrapping the rails), there is full-length .5mm real bamboo veneer reinforcement (stronger than fiberglass) sandwiched between the first and second fiberglass layers on top and bottom. Carbon reinforcement in the standing area to prevent heel dents. Kevlar cloth is added to the rails, nose and tail for extra ding resistance.
The quality CNC shaped 20kg EPS core is strong to prevent heel dents and dings. This combination is vacuum bagged for extra strength, impact resistance and lighter weight. The boards are painted in matte finish for improved performance and custom look. The result is a strong and durable premium construction.
Soft: Cruiser Ultra-Lite All Wave and All Terrain now offer 2/3 length high quality, plush EVA foam coverage for a soft, comfortable touch. With 4.5mm non-slip 'diamond" texture EVA foam, tail kick and toe ramp in the black tail piece.

Customer Mark recently received his V-Max LE 12'6" and wrote us:
"I paddled Saturday and Sunday, about 10 miles each day. Casual paddle on Saturday and pretty aggressive, fast on Sunday.
This is by far one of the nicest boards I have paddled...The lower center section brings you closer to water level, making it incredibly stable at slow speeds...the hull design allows it to really cut through the water and glide during more aggressive paddling.
Several of my paddle buddies jumped on to give it a spin and all of them were very impressed with its stability and speed, not to mention its fantastic looks. Hands down this is an amazing board and I have no buyers remorse in any way. I would certainly do this purchase again - Great product!!"
