UPDATE: -1 star for poor quality of accessories. On the fourth use, I try to connect the hose that connects the pump to the board's valve and see that the side connecting to the board has broken. You can still screw it in, but it's much harder, and something tells me it will break completely soon and I'll have to find another one.
This just reinforces my initial impression that the bag and the pump are of poor quality. Since the set isn't cheap, these could be a bit more carefully made, so you don't have to go through the hassle of replacing them as soon as you buy the set!
BEFORE: I've used it three times, and so far it seems very good!
However, the pressure gauge DOES NOT work [update: probably? Needs better control] and makes me worry when inflating it because it says to be careful not to overinflate it—how can I do that if I don't know how much I've inflated it?? So, I go into the sea, see that it needs more air, and go back out to inflate it again. Time-consuming.
The SUP itself, however, seems sturdy and works just fine. It holds 2 people, with a total weight of around 120 kg, without any part of its surface sinking. It's wider than I expected, which must be good because they say it helps with balance. It took me a little while, but once I found my balance, it seems I can balance quite easily (I'm 1.60).
The carrying bag is okay so far, but it doesn't seem very high quality. I hope it holds up. Also, the straps it has for wearing it like a backpack are very close together (the upper part), so they press on your neck.
Purchase at €250 vfm based on size! Quite a wide board to balance as a beginner and find your footing standing up! The kit includes all the components: pump, bag, paddle, foot strap, repair kit, fins! I really enjoyed it and will continue to enjoy my outings on the water! There is some doubt about the durability over time regarding the pump and the transport bag! For proper maintenance, the A and the Ω is the correct inflation and deflation! The pump makes an annoying noise but okay.. During inflation, the connection of the hose is in the upper position and with the small hole plugged, it works as a double action! After 9psi, when the pressure of the pump starts to weigh down, you remove the plug and the pump becomes single action and you continue up to 15 at the same rate. Tip: during deflation, press the valve to keep it down and start pressing the sup to let all the air out! To completely release the air and make packing easier, which is essential so that the fin slots are not crumpled, place the sup hose in the position that is down against the foot and start 'pumping' as if you are inflating! This way, after a while, the sup completely empties of air and becomes a simple sailcloth for packing! Happy outings!
Very good board, I bought it in the summer of 2024 and I have made about 30 paddles without any problem. I would definitely recommend purchasing a double paddle for easier and much faster paddling when you are in a sitting position.
Very good purchase for alternative exercise during vacations, it ultimately becomes very hard when inflated and I reach up to 13psi (instead of 15 as recommended by the manufacturer) according to the pump it has inside. I keep it permanently inflated and as soon as I return home, I wash it with fresh water and store it until the next day. It is good for maintenance not to leave it out of the sea for many hours under the sun, I say this because many leave it on the car racks permanently and with the temperatures that are created, it is logical that the glues and everything else may come off. For now, I recommend it without reservation, sturdy, large so you balance easily and I am generally excited about the choice. Note that the pump has a special nozzle that screws onto the board, not all pumps work, you need special ones for sup. Also, I have not encountered any problem with its paddle.
Excellent as a board but the pump is a kick.... my first one broke at the base of the tube, they replaced it and on the first inflation it broke again.... to inflate the board to the 1 bar it needs, you must have eaten a kilo of Nutella with this pump....
I bought it for 275 euros. For its price, it is very good. It is the second year that I have it and it is perfect. It is big, so it rarely falls. We have sat two adults on it with a total weight of about 160 kilograms and I didn't see any problem.
Negatives:
A) The anti-slip surface started to peel off - relatively early after the purchase - at the edges, but without causing any problem for now. I inflate it and take a ride normally.
B) The pump was terrible. It was single-action - it only inflated when you pressed downwards. After 9 psi, it became clearly strenuous. So at some point, the pump broke due to the pressure. I had to buy a new one from Z-Ray, around 25 euros, which is double-action - it inflates as you push down and as you pull up. And I felt relieved.
C) The carrying bag is not very sturdy. It tore a bit at the bottom left corner.
First time buying sap and I believe that if you have small children, it's worth it and more. With the pump they give you, you can reach 10psi, so buying an electric one is a must. As a negative, within 10 uses, the non-slip surface started to peel off (photo)
I bought it last year. Very good material quality, good maneuverability even with a little wave. It easily holds 2 adults. With the pump it comes with, it takes some exercise to reach 13-14 psi after 10 psi.
I bought it last year, so this is the second year we are using it. It can withstand the weight of two adults and two children, a total weight of 210 kilograms, without any problem.
Its maneuverability is very good in calm waters, but I haven't tested it in wavy conditions due to lack of experience...
The pump included in the package works, but after 10psi, it gets tiring. However, I inflate it up to 13psi.
For its price, it is good.
Very good choice for its price, worth it for the weight it can handle.
The downside is in the inflation, the pump is not good, it takes a lot of effort when it reaches psi (compared to other pumps), after 2 uses of the pump in inflation, when it started to reach 9 psi, it broke the hose from its attachment.
A pump from another brand does it smoothly at the desired psi.
Personally, I bought it at a very low price due to a defect in the non-slip feature. It is a nice board, stable and of good quality. However, if I were to buy a SUP again, I would go for Aqua Marina without hesitation.
The SUP is excellent!! Very good construction with stable navigation!! It comfortably fits a seat (as shown in the photo) and is big enough for two, maybe even three people!! Very satisfied with my purchase! I highly recommend it!!
Update 22/07/2023: My board had a problem. It developed bumps on the non-slip surface and became crooked as seen in the photos. However, what I want to emphasize is my communication with the customer service. Without me even asking, the company representative (who was very polite and eager to assist immediately) when I mentioned the problem, said "we will replace it with a new one, don't worry". I sent the photos and the purchase receipt via viber and within 2 minutes the replacement was approved and I was sent the ACS tracking number for my new sealed and brand new SUP (it smelled of paint as soon as I opened it). Truly thrilled with the service!! Their after-sales is an example to follow. The new one I received is an upgraded version with better features than my old one, with a new valve that you simply press to release the air instead of turning it like the previous one, silicone handle on the SUP, and new packaging (photo) but unfortunately, with a bag and pump of lower quality than the previous one!! So far, in the two times I've tried it, it seems to have no issues and I hope it stays that way..
Value for money.. excellent, we enjoyed it all summer! It can hold 2 adults, definitely up to 160kg, and a child weighing 15-20kg. It is stable even with 4 (5) Beaufort wind if you know how to SUP. It can be converted into a seat (kayak/canoe), the paddle opens and closes normally, there are no aforementioned issues with the bag construction, it's simple but not something amazing, and the board needs to be rinsed to avoid salt build-up. It is easily stored as it deflates quickly!
Before I proceed with the purchase, luckily I tried it by chance. I rented it at a beach in Lefkada. At first, I thought it was my own problem. When I went to buy a board two weeks later, I realized what was happening. The board is more tragic than an ancient tragedy. The board I bought was somewhere 100 euros more expensive and the difference in navigation is huge. The difference in stability is even greater. Tragic. If your goal is for your children to have fun and pretend to be surfing and for you to say that you have a good SUP, it's fine up to that point. It's good for that. Of course, you could also buy an inflatable sea mattress with paddles. It is the same in terms of quality and functionality. And one more thing, try before you buy. Even with a friend or acquaintance. Don't rely solely on comments because you might regret it miserably.
As the cheapest on the market, it definitely worth its money, now the positives and negatives that I have are:
1) The pressure gauge on the pump is insignificant and at first we thought it wasn't working, I suggest not using it the first 3/4 times and then inflate it to 5-7 psi and generally not to force it.
2) The top part of the paddle (the one that opens and closes and changes size) gets water inside and doesn't have a hole or a system to let it out, we even left it upside down and still couldn't fix it.
3) Putting it back in the box after use took us a long time, especially to fit all the accessories, wrap it slowly from the front so that it deflates as much as possible.
Now for the positives:
1) It inflates very quickly and becomes solid.
2) It can hold up to 150 kg, so we were able to go on it with 3 people weighing 153 kg (you can see both in the pictures).
3) It is huge - in the family category.
4) It has very good maneuverability and the fins at the bottom are very useful (be careful not to put the safety on upside down).
5) It is very fast, especially with few kilos on it.
6) It is really good for beginners and advanced users (a very advanced user in smooth water may get bored).
That's it for now, we haven't used it many times this year, it will wait for us next year.

I bought it about a week ago and I have to say that I don't regret it at all! It is very easy to pack and transport. Also, if you inflate it properly, it is very stable and very easy for beginners. Finally, I think that the price is the best compared to others!
I got the board at the beginning of summer. It is perfect for beginners as well as families. After 11-12 PSI, it is quite stable and performs well in small waves. With 2 adults and 1 child (approximately 200 kilograms), we can comfortably take rides.
value for money board 100%. I initially bought the Malibu, which is 305cm, but it was clearly smaller and couldn't support me and my 7-year-old child due to its lighter weight. However, when I tried the mykonos board, I could easily carry two additional children and we had endless rides throughout our vacation. Truly, for €250, it is the best!
Good construction, easy and quick preparation to get into the sea. The only thing that requires attention is how much you will inflate it. The manufacturer recommends a maximum of 15 psi, but I personally find 11-12 psi ideal after testing. The board becomes stable, you won't notice any instability. You won't have any problems with navigation or losing its shape due to excessive pressure, as mentioned before. It will also tolerate some impacts that would otherwise be an issue with maximum pressure
First board, for beginners it is very good, very stable with a large surface area.
We are satisfied, we inflated it twice and deflated it without using it. The third time we took it to the sea and both of us, being beginners, used it easily. If you get the pump, you can set it up and deflate it relatively easily but you need to have hands for inflation.
It is the most economical in the market I think at the moment & I believe it is worth it for enjoyable hours at the sea.
I'm coming back after a year. The five stars refer to the quality-price ratio. As I wrote below (a year ago), the first board I bought got deformed, but they replaced it immediately. The second board didn't have any issues, and I will write about it. The board is an absolute value for money. If you plan on doing SUP 20-30 times a year, if you are a beginner and want to get into the world of SUP, if you want to carry the whole family on it, and if you don't want to spend more than 300€, you don't need to look at anything else. Now, if you do it systematically or want to get more serious, go for boards that cost at least 370-400€. The board, due to its size, comfortably holds 2 adults or 1 adult + two children for long rides, and for simple play, it can hold 5-6 people. It has decent buoyancy. It is durable - we hit it on rocks and it didn't suffer any damage. I would only recommend considering buying a good ankle leash because the one it comes with is very basic. Seat rings are not available in all versions, so if you want to add one, ask the store if the version they have supports it.
Previous review (16/08/2022):
On the first board, after the third inflation, its shape got deformed and it developed bumps under the non-slip surface (see photo). They replaced it immediately with a new one. The new one looks fine. It is stable, quite rigid (at 12-15 psi), and has good buoyancy. It comfortably holds 1 adult + two children or 2 adults. Maybe I got a defective one, time will tell.
Our first paddleboard, with no previous experience with SUP. It didn't give us any trouble at all. Quick setup, about 5 minutes. Pleasant in the water, with room for beginners' small mistakes. Excellent build quality. The only downside is the low-quality carrying case. In conclusion, great value for money.
It's the best, guys, from being bored at the beach, now I don't want to leave. It's worth every euro. It's my first Sup, I don't know what differences it has from others, but this one here is very easy for beginners. Surely everyone managed to do it
