Let’s check out some of the lesser-known, but yet some very awesome paddle board brands out there. It is a rarely new water sport compared to their closest activities like kayaking, surfing, canoeing, etc. Therefore, even a 10-year experience in the making of either the inflatable or solid paddleboard has an upper-hand compared to the new names who’d like to settle early for the bigger competition. Paddleboards are here to stay – they offer a super compact and great alternative to much bulkier kayaks. Paddleboards can be used for fishing, touring surfing, etc.
The biggest selling point for paddleboards is that a wide variety of different types of inflatable models are nearly idendical in terms of performance and durability – next to their solid counterparts. Inflatable paddleboards are a trending market in which many watersport-related brands are thinking of grabbing their stake.
Paddleboards have slowly yet surely dug into the watersport vessel market for a very good reason! Let’s have a look at some of the not-so-popular brands out there.
