ISLE Explorer Paddle Board: Good At A Little Bit Of Everything For Paddleboarding Fun

Having a paddle board that does what you want it to do is exactly what you’ll get with the ISLE stand up paddle board. It’s a stable, but not a high-speed vessel that can promise a pleasant day out on the water. There’s ample storage for those extras that we like to bring on board to make the day enjoyable. It’s easy to transport, a feature that you expect with an inflatable SUP but one that’s enhanced by rubber padding on the handles in the ISLE Explorer paddle board.

Best Offers ISLE Explorer Inflatable Stand Up Paddle Board

Accessories Of The ISLE Paddle Board Inflatable

The ISLE stand up paddle board is a roomy ride that’s easy to manage in and out of the water. Paddleboarders looking for an all-around performance that offers excellent construction, impressive style, and superior craftsmanship without the kind of price tag you might expect from a SUP that offers all this will be satisfied. The SUPs come with a high-pressure pump, coil leash, a snap-in travel fin, an adjustable carbon shaft/nylon blade paddle, a sticker pack with manual, and a backpack to hold everything.

There’s A Wheeled Option With Your ISLE Explorer Travel Bag

An explorer needs a bag to store things, and the ISLE Explorer paddle board gives you a choice: you can select the regular SUP back pack, with mesh sides and bungee ties on the front; or you can choose the inflatable SUP wheeled travel bag. If you’re going to be flying, the wheeled bag is strong with sturdy zippers and carry handles and straps.

The Lightweight ISLE Stand Up Paddle Board

The ISLE stand up paddle board is made of military-grade PVC that, when it’s fully inflated, is 6 inches thick. You might expect a board of the ISLE’s length to be heavier, but the newer models weigh in at a svelte 19 pounds. That light weight is due to the AirTech Fusion Lite process. Other boards like this use 3 or 4 layers of military-grade PVC, but the ISLE uses 2. Don’t worry, the ISLE isn’t vulnerable because it has fewer layers. Those layers are made of extra dense material, which compensates for the fewer layers.

There is a minor drawback to the light weight of the ISLE. It has a somewhat bulky profile that slows it down in the water. It doesn’t have the speed of longer, thinner boards, so remember that if your paddleboard pals want a race, you’ll need to talk them into giving you a head start.

Take Your ISLE Explorer SUP On A Hobby Cruise

SUPs have gained in popularity as the sport has grown, in part because they are suited not only for water enthusiasts, but also for those who enjoy fishing, touring, and yoga, and want to combine those activities with a day on the water. If you’re a fan of fishing, there’s plenty of room on board the SUP to store your gear: the 6-point front expandable bungee system, combined with the 4-point rear expandable bungee system, provides the room you need for the extras you might want to bring along. If you’re going to spend a day on the water, you’ll need other supplies as well, including water and refreshments.

But if yoga is your gig, you’ll value the comfortable, non-abrasive soft brushed EVA traction pad, with its grooves to aid in traction while ensuring comfort on bare skin. Those yoga moves will be a lot easier on the deck, but if you’re bringing your dog along for the day, don’t worry; the pad can handle his paws. It’s comfortable, but it’s also durable.

In addition to the 14 D-ring attachments, the ISLE Explorer also has attachments for an optional kayak seat, a trend that’s increasingly seen in the newest ISLE paddle board models. No one wants to be skimped on storage space when planning a day’s excursion, so being able to bring along sufficient extra equipment adds to the pleasure of paddleboarding.

No matter what you bring on board, whether it’s bottled water or Rover, or both, make sure that you balance the weight accurately. The ISLE’s large storage capacity is a plus, but if you fail to carefully balance the extras that you bring on board, you’re going to jeopardize your board’s stability.

The Stability Of The ISLE Explorer iSUP

Because of its lightweight dimensions, the board, which is 11 feet long, 32 inches wide, and 6 inches thick, has the volume and width that’s needed if you’re paddling in choppy water. The stability is enhanced by the triple-fin setup, a feature that is especially beneficial for newcomers to the sport, although the ISLE is a high-performing model for paddleboarders on all levels of experience.

The center fin is attached with a small, square-shaped screw. That gives it stability not only in the open water, but if you need to remove the bigger fin when you’re in shallow water, the paddleboard retains its stability. The built-in fin doesn’t roll up as tight as it would otherwise, but it still rolls up for packing.

Transporting The Explorer Sup Board

Inflatable paddle boards are especially popular because they’re so easy to manage. The ISLE Explorer paddle board has a middle carry handle with rubber padding that makes transport easy on the hands. There are also front and rear grab handles so that two people can help. It’s light in weight, so you’ll still have plenty of energy left for paddling after you’ve brought the SUP into the water.
