Goosehill Inflatable Stand Up Paddle Board, Premium SUP Package, 10' Long 32" Wide 6" Thick, Patterns Open for Customization

Product Information

Tahe is a merger from two brands, Tahe Outdoors and BIC, who along with making pens and lighters, have been manufacturing windsurf, surf and paddle boards for years. So although Tahe is a new name, they have been around for a very long time. The construction of this board is what you’d expect for something in this price range. The high density drop stitch construction will help give the board rigidity at high pressure, and the double layered rail protection is a good idea – we have a lot of sharp stones and shells on many of our UK beaches. Paddle boards are a great way to have fun, get fit and explore the world. However, not all paddle boards are created equal! It’s also great for people with pets or people with kids since it is quite spacious like I’ve already mentioned. Bonus: since this paddle board is made by Goosehill, you can get a customized one if you want a specific look or personalization for your board. How cool is that? I actually regret not customizing my own Goosehill Sailor Touring 12’6. But there’s always a next time! Haha! Other boards on the list, like the Bluefin and Aquaplanet, can hold up to 17 PSI whereas the Wave Tourer can only go up to a maximum 12 PSI. Going to a higher pressure normally means more rigidity, stability and performance, so the Wave Tourer does feel a little bit soft on the water.

I pushed this budget paddleboard to its weight limit: Bestway SUP

Decathlon probably needs no introduction, you’ll know them as a French company who have sports stores all around Europe. They make and sell decent gear at very affordable prices, which is exactly how you could describe their main range of paddle boards. Nonetheless, if you’re looking for a budget paddleboard to get you started, the Wave Tourer might be perfect for you. Similarly, the Goosehill inflatable stand up paddle board may be readily stored in a tiny space—under your bed, in the trunk of your car, or in your wardrobe, for example.As seen in this list, many of the cheaper paddle boards come with warranties that are equal to or better than more expensive boards. This seriously reduces the risk of buying ‘cheap’, and should give you the confidence you are buying a well made board that will last a good amount of time. Incredibly sturdy, this board is best suited for still waters such as rivers, lakes, and protected beaches or bays.

So, if you’re looking for a budget paddle board that you want to last for a very long, then the Tahe is 100% for you. Actually, there are a lot of all-around paddle boards in the market but not all of them have a pointed nose that can offer quite the speed like the Goosehill Sailor 12’6 without putting in much of an effort. So, I guess that’s one of its advantages.

Go for a paddle without breaking the budget: the best inflatable paddle boards you can buy

The shape of a budget paddle board will be pretty basic but will be totally perfect for beginners and those who want to occasionally get on the water. You can’t expect a high-performance board at this price range because the brand can’t spend much time/money in research and development. The boards can be made in all shapes, sizes and from different types of materials, which will affect durability and performance. We researched some of the best budget paddle boards this year for UK buyers looking for great value, without making a huge dent in the bank account. Compared to SCE first generation, coupled with NST sealing, it significantly increases the stiffness of the board, e xtends service life, and further optimizes its glide performance. On top of this, we have developed an ultra-light inflatable board: stronger, lighter, and faster. NST: 5CM Strong Seal to Hold the Board Together When I say it’s a multi-purpose paddle board, I’m talking about activities like SUP Yoga, SUp pilates, relaxing, exploring, and even racing because of the board’s pointed nose. This board is also ideal for people with kids or dogs since it provides more space than the standard 30” width of normal paddle boards in the market.
