The SUPboarder Team take their reviews and ratings very seriously to ensure you are well informed and have accurate information on which to make your kit choices.
“When we rate products in our rating sliders we compare and score them in relation to other similar products on the market. We take into consideration not only product type but also overall size, specifications and your ability level. ”
“So for example, if you’re looking at the rating of an advanced surf SUP and its ‘ability to turn’ it will have been compared and rated against other advanced surf SUPs of a similar size.”
“The SUPboarder team have used a huge range of SUP equipment, and therefore have the experience to know how a certain product should feel and perform. We take into consideration not only product type but also overall size, specifications and ability level. ”
“For example, how stable you’d expect a 10’6” x 32” iSUP to feel on average, and how much glide you’d expect from a 14’ race board. This experience and knowledge allows us to honestly and accurately review and rate each product in relation to other similar products.”
“The brands welcome SUPboarder’s product feedback (both positive and negative) as this allows them to make changes and improve their products further. But it’s worth noting that all ratings are accurate only at the time the product was reviewed and compared.”
“For example iSUP bags and pumps are continuously developing and therefore a bag/pump rated 8/10 in 2017 may not be as good as a bag/pump rated 8/10 in 2019.”
We really hope you find the SUPboarder reviews helpful. But please also add your own reviews and ratings on the main review pages to help inform others, as well as read about what other SUPboarders have to say about products they’ve used. We really want to hear what you think too!
