Who is this for: If you’re looking for an inflatable paddleboard that is like no other then you’re going to want to take a deeper look at the SIPA Drive Tourer. This board sits in the high-tier price point, but for good reason: it’s an electric paddle board that can take you up to 5 mph without much effort. The shape of the board, as the name suggests, is best suited for touring paddling and because of the included motor it can travel long distances. Also, because of the motor, the board is a bit heavier than standard inflatables weighing over 34lbs so if you’re looking for something more lightweight, you’ll definitely want to consider another option. Keep in mind though, you’re looking at a SUP with an electric motor here so this board is quite unique. Because of the complexity of this board, it’s better suited towards those who are a bit more familiar with paddle boards and being on the water as it does require a good amount of stability and balance when the jetpack is on.

About the board:If you’re looking for an inflatable paddle board great for beginners that suits all around paddling and yoga, take a look at the Mandala series inflatable SUP by Bay Sports. This board is best suited for paddling shorter distances, up to a couple miles at most, and will do best in calmer waters, either on a lake or near the shoreline. The board weighs roughly 22 lbs so carrying it should be quite manageable for most paddlers. Retailing at $679 this board comes with everything you need (paddle, pump, backpack, leash) to get on the water and is a really nice package for less than $1,000 USD. Read more HERE.

About the board:If you’re looking for an inflatable paddle board specifically designed to suit SUP Yoga, look no further. The Thurso Surf Tranquility Yoga SUP is an excellent option.

What’s more, the board can be used for some short distance paddling in calm waters if you’re not feeling like getting in yoga for the day or can even double as something the entire family can enjoy.
