Freein Fishing SUP Inflatable Stand Up Paddle Board 12’ x35 Extra Wide ISUP Fishing Rod Holder Package - Fiberglassr Paddle, Adaptor,Camera Mount, Dual Action Pump, Leash, Backpack

Edit my review.After using this SUP and had a great experience, I decided to go and buy a SUP from ROC, boy, I was disappointed with ROC. I wished I had bought another Freein instead, but it was no longer on sale at that time. ROC was at the same price point, but comes with way less accessories.

Sup can be a little bit of work. With that being said though I am enjoying this one. Good quality construction. I enjoyed fishing from it also. Would not recommend this model for someone small though.

This is my 2nd stand up paddle board (1st one purchased 2 years ago). I am a notice/beginner paddle boarder. This is what I like about the Freein Fishing SUP Inflatable Stand Up Paddle Board:- easy to set up- great quality pump with with gage and guidance as to how much to inflate the board. It good about 15 minutes to fully inflate the board. The pump also come with attachment so you could inflate it with an electric pump if you wanted. But the hand pump is quite large so it would be quicker to inflate with this pump than an electric one (you just get some extra exercise doing it!)- I love the extra large size of the board which makes it more stable on the water (I was easily able to stand up and paddle and felt pretty secure on the river)- I like the extra padding at the center of the board for when I am on my knees- it is light to carry (I carry it about 300 ft to the river - inflated)- lots of places to for attachement, packsack, fishing gear etc…- nice design and colour- like that the fins underneath are easy to attach and remove (with screw that you can do by hand). My other paddleboard has fins that slide in but I struggle to take them offWhat could be better:- when extending the paddle to full length (from paddling sitting down to standing up) the top part of the paddle easily slides all the way out leaving you with 2 pieces of the paddle - so be careful when extending the paddle on the river so you don’t lose either your paddle or your balance- wish this came with a strap to carry the board withThis is a great paddleboard (I’m not into fishing so cannot comment on that part) and I am looking forward to enjoying it on the river this summer. Would recommend this purchase.

This appears to be a very well made standup paddleboard (SUP), certainly as high in quality as the name brand one we bought at a local store. It is quite large, being designed to be a stable platform for fishing, so it is somewhat easier to hold your balance while on it. It is both longer and wider than our other paddleboards.Feature wise, it comes with a fishing rod holder that you can insert into one of four slots on the SUP. This is a good system if you plan to fish from the SUP, but if not then the slots are kind of in the way a bit.The SUP has carry handles at both ends, something our smaller SUPs do not have. This makes carrying the thing so much easier (with two people) and also you can attach a tow rope to the front of the SUP and pull it behind a boat or other watercraft.Although not shown in the pictures in the product listing, the one we received has four corner tie-downs that look like they are for attaching a kayak seat so you can sit down and paddle the SUP like a kayak. The supplied paddle can also be converted into a double-ended paddle for kayaking. It did not come with a kayak seat, however.In terms of inflating the SUP, it comes with a good quality manual air pump but due to the size and extra high pressure of this SUP it would take a long time and a whole lot of effort to pump it up manually. You will want an electric air pump.There are three fins or keels that come with the SUP; one larger one for the centre and two smaller side fins. Together they provide good stability. They are very easy to attach without tools, as they just use a thumb-screw to go on and off. Very convenient.Because of all the hardware slots on the deck of the SUP, it is rather difficult to deflate by simply opening the air valve and rolling it up. You need to attach an air pump (in reverse) to get all the air out so you can fold it up tightly enough to fit in the supplied carry bag. And it needs to be folded in a very particular way to fit back in the bag, so make note of it when you first unfold it. Be warned, this thing is pretty heavy, so you probably won't be carrying it backpack-style for great distances.All in all, this is a very good SUP and great for carrying more than one person, or a person and a dog, or of course for fishing or other water activities.

🌟 Quality:The Freein Fishing SUP is built with high-quality materials, ensuring it lasts through many adventures. The board's extra-wide design (12' x 35'') offers exceptional stability, which is crucial for fishing and recreational paddling. The soft, non-slip deck pad provides a comfortable and secure grip, even when wet. It came well-packaged and looks exactly like it does in the pictures—no surprises upon arrival. Assembly and setup are straightforward, thanks to the comprehensive package that includes a fiberglass paddle, adaptor, camera mount, dual-action pump, leash, and a convenient backpack for easy transport and storage.⚙️ Functionality:This paddleboard works exceptionally well for its intended purposes. The 12' length and 35" width provide unmatched stability, supporting up to 395 lbs, perfect for carrying gear and supplies for longer trips. The dual-action pump makes inflating the board quick and effortless, and the adjustable fiberglass paddle is sturdy and lightweight. The board is designed with anglers in mind, featuring 4 accessory bases for easy attachment of rod holders and fishing racks. The included rod holders and 6-point expandable bungee system are incredibly useful. The ergonomic design of the paddle enhances comfort during extended paddling sessions, and the leash ensures the board stays close in case of a fall.💰 Price:Priced at $399, the Freein Fishing SUP offers professional-level features and durability that are typically found in more expensive models. The price is great for the quality and versatility this paddleboard provides.🏆 Overall:Overall, I am quite happy with the Freein Fishing SUP and highly recommend it. It is a top-notch choice for anyone serious about fishing or looking to explore waterways with stability, comfort, and ease. This paddleboard is a must-have for outdoor sports enthusiasts, offering a reliable and feature-rich experience. It’s an investment in countless future adventures and a fantastic addition to any outdoor gear collection.

This is a big board (which if you read the description you would know). Its more of a niche size, which comes with trade offs in what you get.The good stuff (with the negative compromise in brackets)-Its very large and stable (but slower speed than most boards when paddling and very difficult to turn)It has a very high weight capacity, can easily carry an adult, two 50lbs kids and an excited german Shepherd. (No real downsides aside from speed/turning as listed above).Has cargo straps front and rear, the rear is especially handy if you have passengers so they aren't on your keys/phone. (But the bungee material is poor quality and the attachment rings aren't very securely attached to the board)Has mounting points for a fishing rod holder (but the holder design is rubbish, and the mounting points are on the grip pad, if you step on them or fall on them they hurt. )It has better fins than most with a screw in attachment (getting replacements will be difficult ).Comes with plenty of accessories (but the paddle is flimsy, the pump air hose is brittle, the fishing rod holder is a poor, clunky design and the park build quality is very marginal).Conclusion:I'm a very experienced paddleboarder, with several boards. This was bought specifically for fishing and overnight paddleboarding trips (as the cargo hauler). For those two roles it works well. As a general usage board, its barely functional. Its slow and hard to turn, the board itself is too heavy for most people to carry or load to/from the car, it takes noticeably longer to pump up (because its much bigger than most boards), and worst of all, the fishing rod mounting points (which are useless for fishing, since the rod holder is junk) are right in the grippy standing portion of the board (and will bruise or cut you if you step/slip on them). This is NOT a board for letting the kids go play on, or for newer paddlers looking for stability, there are lots of better 11x34 and 11x35 options out there for the same price that paddle better and will give better service as a normal paddle board. If you are after a gear hauler, it does work well, but again, those sizes listed above will do the same, with less of the downsides.

The Freein Fishing SUP offers a significant size upgrade for anyone looking for a big, stable SUP for fishing adventures. With its generous 12' x 35" size, this board is big and stable, making it able to handle some extra gear, making it a great choice for both fishing enthusiasts and those looking for a more stable ride.The dimensions (12’x35”) don’t seem that much bigger than a standard (10.6’x33”), but it does make a noticeable difference. Its 12' length and 35" width provide a stable ride, making it easier to stand on and less wobbly. This added stability is particularly beneficial when fishing, as it allows you to move around the board and handle your gear without tipping over. It supports up to 395 lbs, accommodating additional gear or even an extra person comfortably.With anglers in mind, the board comes equipped with multiple fishing-specific features. It includes four accessory bases for attaching rod holders and other fishing gear, with one rod holder included in the package. The listing indicates “2 rod holders in the kit”, which would have been appreciated, but there was only one included in mine, and I note that the picture only depicts one. Regardless, the ONE rod holder is well-designed, allowing adjustable angles and easy removal, even from a standing position. This setup makes it convenient to fish while standing and provides an enjoyable experience when trolling with lures. An action camera mount is included, perfect for documenting your fishing trips and paddling adventures.Build quality is in keeping with expectations. It features reinforced dropstitch technology, ensuring durability and rigidity. The board also has a soft, non-slip deck pad that provides a secure grip, even when wet, enhancing safety and comfort during long fishing trips or casual paddling. The three-fin system, with a removable center fin.Portability and Trade-offs - it’s inflatable, but it’s larger dimensions can make it a bit cumbersome to handle out of the water. The trade-off for its stability is extra size and weight, and a slight reduction in speed compared to smaller boards. However, for those prioritizing stability and carrying capacity, this is a minor compromise, and it’s largely enough for two people.Price and Value At $399, the Freein Fishing SUP might seem a bit pricey, but considering its size, stability, and array of features, it offers good value for money.Final Thought: This SUP Board is a standout choice for someone looking for a larger, more stable board, and want the extra functionality of fishing. However, that extra size comes with some extra weight, and it’s not as fast on the water, all of which is to be expected. That said, it’s also large enough to accommodate two smaller adults, and with two paddlers it’s pretty fast ; ).
