As a SUPClubWorld ride tester, I recently had the pleasure of testing the SurfStar Latest Lagoon Series-II 10’6” x 34” Paddle Board, and I’m excited to share my thoughts, so stay tuned for a detailed breakdown.

SurfStar Lagoon Series-II 10'6''x34'' paddle board review

First Impressions and Setup

  Unboxing the SurfStar Lagoon Series-II was a good experience. The package includes everything you need to get on the water right away: the 10’6” x 34” paddle board, a fiberglass paddle, a manual pump, a coiled ankle leash, a repair kit, and a detachable central fin. The dual-action pump is efficient, but we recommend the brand consider offering a three-stage or electric pump for even easier setup.

Accessories and Features

 The included accessories are of high quality, adding value to the package. The fiberglass paddle is adjustable, offering comfort and efficiency for a wide range of paddlers. The large bungee cord system provides ample storage for gear, and the three paddle handles make carrying the board straightforward. All components fit neatly into the backpack.

Convenience and Portability

 Transporting and storing the board is incredibly convenient. When deflated, it rolls up compactly and fits neatly into the included backpack. The board weighs just 18.8 lbs, making it easy to carry to and from the water. The backpack is well-designed, with ample space for the board and accessories, enhancing the overall portability.

Build Quality and Design

 One of the standout features is the latest welded seams technology. Unlike traditional glued seams, this method boosts the board’s durability, making it ideal for extensive use.

The high-quality non-slip PVC material provides excellent traction, resists compression, and maintains elasticity, ensuring a reliable platform for all your activities.
