11'6 El Capitan Bomber Inflatable SUP - Touring & Stability

First paddle board

This is a great SUP , my first one and it glides so nice on the river up and down stream , lots of room for cargo or an extra friend , I strapped my beach chair too it and it was perfect.

It’s been great!

Such a good experience! Everything from the initial purchase to the enjoyment we’ve had on the water, it’s all been good. I don’t generally provide reviews for purchases but this one is well deserved. We had the opportunity to meet Jaeger in person at a boat show. He provided our introduction to the brand and products. We were impressed by the quality of the products and his overall knowledge, enthusiasm and commitment. We returned shortly afterwards and purchased our Board. We went with the large and awesome “El capitan - Bomber” What a board! The purchase, shipping/tracking updates and delivery experience was seamless, 5 stars! but I didn’t want to review anything until we had the chance to use the board and equipment several times. So after some great days on the water with my paddling partner and the board, there’s no doubt, we’re so happy with it! It’s quality, it’s stable and it’s so much fun! We’ve even been out with some wind and chop and the board handles great. Having 2 people on the board feels comfortable and we’re having more fun than we expected. So yeah, 5 stars! My only suggestion/note for anything better would be for a 2nd universal mount on a 2 person board, so we could both have cup holders. Maybe an added accessory option?

So far, so good!

I’ve taken it out on a few BC lake trips so far and had no issues at all. It’s easy to inflate, deflate, and pack away, and feels super solid on the water. I use it with my kayak seat and paddle as my dog loves being on the water but isn’t a fan of kayaks. She does love the stability and freedom this board offers. It’s not the fastest setup (as expected), but that’s not why I got it. It tracks well and is incredibly stable. My only minor gripe (more feedback) is that I wish the accessory mount was positioned closer to the front for my camera, but that’s an easy fix with a stick-on mount, and it definitely doesn’t take away from how great the board is. Next step: adding a Bixpy motor to get it cruising!
