FEATURES ISLE Pioneer Inflatable Stand-Up Paddle Board
- Reinforced grab handles on the nose and tail: This makes transporting the board loaded with gear along riverbeds and docks easy. It can also be used as a leash or a tie-up point for docks.
- Expandable 6-point front bungee: Riders can grab and go with safe and easy gear access thanks to the expandable bungee system. Attach other items such as sunglasses, a camera, snacks, and the Coast Guard-mandated life vest necessary on most rivers.
- Brushed traction pad: The new soft brushed EVA traction pad now has grooves for increased traction and comfort underfoot. When knee paddling or relaxing on the deck, it’s non-abrasive, so you can expect a smooth, comfortable ride every time you swim.
- New and improved rounded comfort handle: The new and enhanced rounded comfort handle adapts to your grip and makes transportation easy. It includes smooth neoprene cushioning around the handle, making it simple to grip even when wet or chilly.
- Paddle holder: Two Velcro straps along the rail provide secure attachment points for your paddle when the board is unused.
- 4-point rear bungee: Riders can grab and go with safe and easy gear access thanks to the expandable bungee system. Attach other items such as sunglasses, a camera, snacks, and the Coast Guard-mandated life vest necessary on most rivers.

Board Size
You want to choose a SUP with enough volume (buoyancy) based on your weight and experience level to float and perform properly. Length, width, and thickness should be considered when deciding which paddleboard size is right for you. Remember to account for the added weight of the gear you plan on bringing, as well.
If you plan to use your SUP for fishing or long adventures, you’ll likely want to choose a more buoyant SUP. It’s important to mention that being too light for a board is not something a rider has to worry about, as it doesn’t make a difference.
