Anybody have feedback on the inflatable boards? Looking for a good all around, leaning a little more towards the surf end.

Riv,
The Quest is nice and stable tracks great but IMHO limited in its appilcations very specific to easy paddling
lastly the Naish GTW (2016) construction had (on certain boards) weight and durability issuse but the Nalu shape is a good all around design

Jim, I might be heading up your way in a few weeks. What board might your suggest that you carry or can get?

Was hoping to ride a Quest on my latest trip to the Carolinas. May just purchase one without trying.

Thank you for the information. Since I am looking for an all around board I will probably go with the Quest.

I have not had a chance to ride the Quest yet, but wondering how these 2 boards compare to each other? I can get a really good deal on a 2016 Nalu GTW, but still hesitating as I want to get some input on the Quest.

Not much of a surfer, but I would like an upgrade to the style of vehicle I already have. Dodge Ram Ecodiesel with a topper. Stick their Eco diesel that has 240 HP with 440 pounds of torque in a mid size offering, and you got a capable 4X4 that would get real world 30MPG+ on the highway.
I have this exact vehicle with topper. 4 door crew with the 6'4" bed and topper. I average 30 mpg with a Green Diesel Engineering Tune.

Had a Ford Excursion that was my dream vehicle. Had the 7.3 Powerstroke. I put 300k miles on it, until the rust started eating it up.

Ok, in reality my OW is not getting me to the beach with my board yet, but it is getting me to the beach. Baby steps...
Never heard of the OneWheel but just checked it out. Looks fun, but a little expensive. I think it would be great to ride on the beach, but I would be worried the salt and sand would destroy it.

If you have the money and enjoyed both, buy both. I would guess that a cruising SUP and a surf board will out perform a surf-style sup in both areas.
This was a thought, but I want to be able to spot waves from a distance. I plan on finding my own waves and stay out of the way as a beginner.

Thanks everyone for the great information and feedback.
I found a great deal on a used 2016 Naish Nalu. The board is 10'6" long and 30" wide. It has 3 fins, but the guy said he sometimes rides with one fin on the lakes.
I wonder if I am too heavy at 190# for this board?
Still doing lots of research and seems most of the all around boards have a single or 3 fins.

Spent some time on Craigslist last night and there are many boards out there. Any brands to look for or stay away from? If I go the used route, I will try and find a fairly new one.

I am considering purchasing my first SUP in the near future. I live in MD, but spend a great deal of time in NC. I recently tried both surfing a longboard and riding a SUP in the backwater. I really enjoyed both. I have seen people surfing with a SUP, so I was wondering if there is a good all around SUP that would do both? I don't mind spending the money on something that is good quality, as I was already considering purchase both a longboard and a SUP for backwater.
I started looking online and there are so many companies it is hard to tell what is what.
I am 46, weigh 190# and 5'11. I am open to any suggestions or input.
