Easily fit in my bag I even took it with me to New Zealand and Australia and was able to just throw it over the shoulder when I wanted too. I wanted something really light I could take on a plane, but light enough that I would not be and effort really lugging it around at all. Would love a pump with a rechargeable battery or something, that would be perfect if someone invented it.
#Astroboard reviews manual#
Manual pump which is a must when travelling, but the smaller volume means it is pretty easy to get tot he correct PSI.

This combination and the diversity of design forms make Astroboard the perfect material for many applications. So after a while i got over the nerves of putting weight too far back, or having my foot slip since you are able to feel the back of the board basically because of the bump. It is from this basic principle that the main product properties derive: extremely low weight, excellent rigidity and remarkable dampening properties. The bump on the tail is nice, I'd never really put my foot back that far but after experimenting with it opens up a few things because there is a real tactile feel when I hit it sliding my foot back. Tracks great in general and I'm 6ft and weight 180lbs and it handles my weight easily. Quick with directional changes on the flat water, and I took it on some light surf and was able to catch my first sup waves, which was a great memory. I had an 11'2 starboard astro board which is OK but the build quality on this is better in my opinion and that was pretty stable, but feels sluggish in comparison.īalance is excellent and is very stiff when inflated. I thought a 9-6 would feel a bit small to me but you really don't think that out on the water it actually is far more fun.

Really compact and just enjoyable to use.
