Any thoughts/recommendations on inflatable SUPs? I'm in the Midwest near lots of lakes and rivers, intending to use it for casual recreational purposes, so the durability and portability of an inflatable is probably my best bet right now. Budget-wise, probably in the $400-500 range, though I could stretch that. I've seen the iROCKER Nautical and the Gili AIR on a lot of lists but didn't know if anyone had firsthand experience.

piss-bottle man posted:My wife and her friend both have ROC inflatables (purchased through Amazon) and they’ve had no issues in the few months they’ve owned them. I just bought an Atoll (gets great reviews, though a bit more expensive than the ROC) but I haven’t had a chance to test it out yet. The build quality on both brands is good. Thanks for this. We went ahead with the ROCs--price seemed right and it seems like it'll fit our needs just fine for a while. We're not planning any long or exotic trips with them, just a couple hours paddling at different parks and lakes around the region. That said, I can definitely see where there's room/opportunity to upgrade if we get the bug for it.

Flatland Crusoe posted:We would go on “float trips” on Ozark scenic rivers where a 1970’s school bus drives like 60 people 4 miles up stream and you would just coast back to the takeout at the camp ground. Being blackout drunk was the norm for a 3 day weekend. The cost of the canoe rental, shuttle and camping was like $50/person for whole weekend. It’s like the opposite of boundary waters. Can confirm, float trips are cool and good (and social distancing friendly in tyool 2020)
