Stand up Paddleboards

[johnnyBv8]

Not sure that SUPs are really 'sport', but not sure where else to post. I'm looking for recommendations for beginner all-round inflatable paddle boards. I've looked at Bluefin Cruise 10'8 as a package for £499, but not sure if there are better alternatives.

Thanks

Find a "sport" that isn't just for middle aged ladies who don't like water?

My wife persuaded me to have a go in Greece once. Most boring hour of my life.

She loves it for some reason.

Yeah, as per my first post - it isn't a sport. However, we've just moved to the coast, and I've bought a fliteboard (https://eu.fliteboard.com/) .... I need something for my wife to stand on whilst I'm learning to ride this!
