It appears to be more of a planing hull. br>At the nose, it's round and flat.

It's a teal blue color.
I believe it does. The only issue we had was with the pump not showing the pressure. When we contacted them, they quickly resolved the issue.

Update: When I went to get my paddle board out, there was a leak where the pump was attached! In some areas, the foam on the board has bubbled up and is peeling away from the board! br>I'm not sure how I'm going to get this back. I'm so disappointed, and it's July 4th!br>br>Old postbr>I'm very happy with my paddle board, which I chose because it's easy to transport since I have a car. The setup is straightforward; all that is required is a significant amount of pumping. It also comes with a fantastic backpack. br>It glides effortlessly through the water; however, make sure you wear your fin. br>Also, do not expose to direct sunlight. The top padding had already begun to bubble, and I couldn't find a way to notify anyone. br>Overall, I like these boards because they can be transported in a car, though it is a little more difficult because they are inflatable.
We purchased this standup paddleboard to use at a nearby lagoon now that we can go to the beach again. br>We had a great time, and as you can see in the photos, after some careful instruction, my kids were able to use it on their own. The installation procedure: br>br> br>The board is packaged in a large backpack that can be carried by one person. The board, the main fin (two additional small fins are attached to the board and come with some foam to wrap around them to prevent them from breaking), the pump, the adjustable paddle, a leash, and a repair pack are all contained within the backpack. br>To set up the board, first connect the pump to the valve, then pump until the pump's gauge reads at least 10 psi. 11 PSI. It only takes a few minutes and isn't difficult to accomplish. To avoid losing the fin, turn the board around and slide it in place with its lock once it is fully inflated. After that, you attach the leash, connect the three pieces that make up the paddle, adjust the height to your liking, and you're ready to go into the water. The paddling adventure: br>br> If you've used a rigid paddle board before, keep in mind that inflatable paddle boards are a little more unstable. This is due to two factors: (1) The inflatable boards are less rigid, causing them to move more with the waves, and (2) they are thicker, resulting in a higher center of gravity. As a result, it may take a little more practice to get used to it, but once you do, you'll be paddling happily in no time. br>br>The experience of putting it away: br>I was concerned that deflating the board would be inconvenient and take an inordinate amount of time. I was pleasantly surprised, however, by how simple it was. Basically, you dry the board, open the valve, and begin folding the board from the opposite end, making sure that all of the air is released. You only need to clean the sand as you fold it while doing so. It's almost as easy to stuff the folded board into the backpack as it is to take it out. It took less time to deflate it than it did to inflate. br>br>Overall, this was an excellent purchase that we will enjoy throughout the summer. br>Of course, the fact that it fits easily in my car's trunk is a huge plus!.
The seal on mine was leaking. My husband was able to patch it up and make it less of a problem. To demonstrate the leak in the video, I surrounded it with soapy water. In the end, the customer service was adequate. I was able to get a refund after a lot of back-and-forth and offers to send another one. I didn't want to mess with another one after the seal leaking and reading other reviews because the quality of this one was poor due to the leak. The SUP held air overnight with the patch and appeared to be stable, but I'm not sure how long it will last.
Pumping time was approximately 10 minutes - I have a small bubble on the pad, which I hope will not cause any problems in the future, but it is just that. Company contacted me prior to delivery; we paddled with two, which was a little difficult but possible if you were not in the ocean on Sunday (August 29th). It was a little wavy at times - It was flat today and it was fine) my friend is going to buy one today or tomorrow! On the fourth image, she's posing with. I would definitely recommend the board because they were prompt in resolving my issue with a few follow-up emails, but time was an issue. Great company to work with; I was concerned that they would leave this unattended, but they cooperated. Thank you very much! The photo above was taken when I first received my paddleboard, and I absolutely adore it.
The air release valve is malfunctioning and will not stay in the release air position after the second use of the paddle board. It must be manually held down, which is extremely difficult. This happened only the second time I used it, and it was probably only about 2 hours of board time.
It was a big hit with everyone. 8-year-old children 12), and it fit my 5'5" frame up to my husband's 6'5" frame, but he needed the board to be fully inflated before he could stand on it. My only minor quibble is that the photos show a white board with black accents. The board we used was white with blue accents. The black detailed one, as shown in the picture, was something I was looking forward to. Also, the pump gauge does not appear to work, as the psi levels do not change as we inflate the board; I've emailed the company about a replacement, so we'll see what happens. Overall, the board was a lot of fun to play with, and it was simple to put together/take apart and transport!.
