Review Geek - Is Amazon Kindle Unlimited Worth It?

July 19, 2022

If you’ve never tried a stand-up paddleboard (SUP) you’re in for a treat. They are a fun way to get out on the water during the warm summer months, and it’s a great full-body workout. Stand-Up Paddleboards are often too large to fit in some garages, not to mention expensive. That’s why we like this inflatable SUP combo pack on Amazon.

The AKASO Paddleboard kit features a non-slip deck and comes with a carry backpack, a waterproof bag for your phone, a leash so it won’t float away when you inevitably fall off, and the paddle floats too. This kit includes the pump, so you can throw everything into the backpack and be ready to go minutes after walking down to the beach, lake, or river. Give a SUP a try today!
