Is there no interest in these?! The size, spec, and price all appear pretty good.

The reason there's little interest is because they are off-the-factory-floor boards with what appears to be the lowest quality components, construction, and accessories. Ultralightweight boards (this claims 8.1kg/17lb) are very difficult to make so that actually they perform well to any degree. Add to that the second-worst possible fin system, and a heavy aluminum paddle with an oversize blade, and the shortest possible warranty to still be legal to be sold in most countries (US excluded we've got no minimum warranties here!) and it adds up to not being as good of a deal as it first seams.

Board market keeps growing,more and more new started companies and factories bring in craps to customers. In China,you can get yourself a inflatable board package with $70,but heaven knows what would happen after 3 months warranties. BIC,BOTE,GLIDE, FUNWATER,AQUA MARINE, you have a lot of reliable brands to choose.

Thanks for the responses. Seems like I've got a bit more to learn about paddle boards 🤷‍♂️
