Perfect family planning for a SUP board means that children can carry it to the beach and manoeuvre it independently, that perhaps even the dog can go for a short ride and that occasional, smaller tours on the lake or river are possible. In addition to the canoe-like touring boards and expedition specialists, Sport Vibrations offers the classic board shape and size found on many rivers and lakes with the 10'5". The particularly lightweight construction with a very thin deck pad, which is supported on the inside by a high-quality drop stitch, results in a noticeable weight saving. The 7.2 kilos are light as a feather in the hand and even children can carry the board into the water.
On the water, the six-inch-thick board does not flex, even at a good 85 kilos in weight; it lies straight and stiff in the water. However, the less thick laminate makes it a little more forgiving under the heels and subjectively slightly softer - but this does not detract from the riding characteristics. Thanks to its low weight, the board accelerates very quickly, is super easy to turn and turn and still follows the course well. Due to its low weight, it is not only livelier in manoeuvres, but is also a little more sensitive in the water than heavier boards and therefore feels more like a 30 inch wide board in solid PVC.
Conclusion on the Sport Vibrations SV 10'5" x 31":
The SV 10'5" is a board for the whole family when a long touring board would be too big for the kids. A board for carefree, easy paddling fun near the beach and on shorter tours on the lake or river.
