Body Glove Performer 11 ISUP Package - Paddle Board, Paddle, Storage Backpack, Electric and Hand Pumps, Coil Leash Included

Product Information

Smaller paddlers could adjust the backpack bag reasonably well to sit correctly on their backs, but it hit the back of their heads if tightened correctly. Additionally, the cover expands, with the help of velcro, to become a water bottle or paddle holster. The 2022 version is now available at Body Glove and includes both an electric 12v pump and a manual pump. Though you potentially could engage in some iSUP yoga if you were skilled, this probably would not be your first choice of boards if that was solely your goal.

We have replaced all single-use plastic packaging with recyclable or reusable alternatives, including recyclable paper.

Though, Body Glove does include two small D-rings on either side on the back of the board, for tying down something larger like a cooler.

The bungee cord is fully adjustable thanks to a small plastic clip — a nice little feature that allows you to loosen or tighten the bungee to better accommodate your gear. While this is a neat feature, we would definitely have preferred to see an actual GoPro camera mount instead.

Advanced paddlers may enjoy testing their skills with the three-fin design and pointed nose in flat water.Overall the Body Glove Performer 11’ provides great value in a crowd-pleasing iSUP with a versatile shape that is almost as appealing as the new graphics are.

knit drop-stitch fibers connect the top and bottom layers of heavy-duty puncture-resistant PVC to create a solid platform when inflated to the recommended PSI. thick versus its previous depth of 6” which makes for a lighter board overall without sacrificing stability. We had no problem paddling the Performer with our two little dogs Seth and Jax and they seemed very comfortable.Another potential improvement would be the addition of metal D-rings which would make it much easier to tie down a SUP cooler and other gear. You'll get an ISUP that performs like a hardboard in the water, with the convenience of inflatable durability, portability and storage. This year the Performer sports a new removable fin allowing for improved tracking, with the added benefit of a board that packs down smaller. There are many many ISUP packages available these days, some of which are cheap and will likely fail when the drop-stitch fibers separate from the top or bottom sheets.
