Bluefin Cruise Lite SUP Paddleboard Kit | Lightweight and Compact Stand Up Paddle Board for Adults | In Sizes 11Ft4 and 10Ft

Product Information

While the board itself is of great quality, some of the accessories feel a little cheap in particular areas. You can get an extra blade to convert to a kayak paddle, however this isn’t included in the package.

The Cruise Lite is also very compact, thanks to the split EVA deck pad and flexible US centre fin box. The 2023 lineup of Bluefin paddleboards includes ten uniquely shaped and sized paddleboards that will accommodate beginners, intermediate, and advanced paddlers alike. You’ll want a board that does a good job paddling in a straight line because probably your goal as a beginner is to try to get from A to B without any issues.One of our team members will contact you to address your concerns and fully resolve the issue for you. With enough storage for overnight camping, superb tracking and stability in even the most tricky conditions, and the ability to turn on a dime, it’s an ideal option for a variety of paddling adventures.

The crocodile skin texture, along with the diamond pattern, really improves your traction so that you can have an easier time maintaining your grip to the paddleboard. The only downside of the Bluefin Cruise, which is the same for all 6-inch thick rail boards, is any wind or chop that hits the side can unsettle it very quickly. ULTRA LIGHT CONSTRUCTION: Our lightest sup inflatable stand up paddle board is constructed using a lighter 5” drop stitch core to minimise weight. I've been riding mine for 1 month and the only issue is that on 3 occasions when I disconnected the pump, it opened the valve and let most of the air out.A full-length deckpad maximises board usability and manoeuvrability and offers excellent grip and traction.

Both the 10’8 and 12ft Bluefin Cruise are 82cm wide, which is pretty normal for an all-round beginner board. Ten D-rings litter the deck of the paddleboard, allowing you to attach dry-bags, phone cases, and other popular SUP accessories to the SUP, including the packed in Bluefin kayak conversion kit. In fact, the board is steady enough that I was able to walk around on the board, get up and down, and even grab equipment that I had strapped to the nose without getting off balance.Many cheaper inflatable models add a kickpad, but you cant use the thing for step back turns because the board just isn’t rigid enough. This is helpful because it avoids getting the straps caught in the wheels, which can trip you up pretty good. Overall, we think the 10’8’’ Cruise is maneuverable enough that you’ll be able to explore every nook and cranny of the lakes and bays that you go to, leaving no stone unturned as you enjoy nature with the Bluefin 10’8’’ Cruise. On the nose of the paddleboard you’ll find an action mount, which works great with GoPro cameras, speakers, and other common electronic devices. Engineered for ultimate convenience and efficiency, this pump inflates your SUP with every up and down motion, doubling the speed at which you can prepare for your aquatic adventures.

Both beginners and advanced users alike will find the Bluefin Cruise to be a tracking and gliding machine. The paddle that comes with the Bluefin Cruise Carbon is a carbon fiber paddle, and it is incredibly light.

When it comes to value, there are few entry-level paddleboard options better than the 10’8’’ Bluefin Cruise. Our Cruise board is expertly designed for all-round paddling and is ideal for beginners or intermediates. When everything is lumped together into the backpack It is still rather wieldy, even with the pump inside.
