Arrived today in perfect condition. Can’t wait to get them on the water. So shiny and new. Solid. Great quality!
JOY! LOVE our new Bote Board. This is the most fun on the water, we have paddled springs, bay and gulf, it's always a incredible adventure. I have had a few other boards, but this is hands down the best investment in a SUP. The board itself is beautiful, lightweight and super well constructed, very durable. WE are stoked! My 13yr old daughter can carry it by herself, it's so lightweight. It is very stable and well balanced for a beginner paddler. The Bote team's customer service is excellent, they are friendly and very responsive to any questions I had. Even our Labrador loves it. We are shopping for our next Bote Board for my 6ft partner, so a 12 ft board is about to join our Bote family. Paddle on people!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super fun board. Beautiful deck. I upgraded from a Bote inflatable and the glass board tracks so much better. Extra credit is how cool it looks on top of my car!
We have a Flood 12' (which we really like, but it is a bit heavy) and we needed a shorter, lighter board for other paddlers in the family. The Breeze does a great job and is priced well. Compared to the Flood 10'6”, the Breeze is 3# lighter (32# versus 35# for the Full Trax) and 2” wider (32” versus 30”). Note that the paddle is not as light (plastic instead of carbon fiber) and deck shape has a curve (the Flood is flat) — the only one I really notice is the paddle.
First paddle board I have owned and couldn't be happier! I bring my dog on it, and was worried about him scratching it, however, there are no marks left in the top of the board from him, so they are definitely dog friendly! Super stable even in some choppy conditions and no issues so far. The fin was a bit if a pain to get on, so I might recommend selling them with a slightly larger screw just for a simpler installation, but everything else is great!
The Breeze is a great all around board. Knew I wanted hard to not deal with inflation. I got a good deal on Bote so it was great value for money. Haven't tried it in the surf yet. But good floatation, deals with wake well and the straps on the front are great for bringing a bag along with goodies or just the essentials. Getting the leash feels like no need to get a PFD. Again, great all around, hard top board.
Hadn't paddle boarded in a long time. After weeks of agonizing research I settled on this. The colors, the feel. I love everything about it. Our maiden voyage was spectacular and just as easy as I remember. Super stable, easy to control. I wouldn't trade it for the world. Here's to many seasons of boading!!!
Great for family fun. We bought two for my wife and I plus our 3 teenage boys. Everyone can move the boards around easily, especially with the travel link. Very stable and easy to maneuver. The aqua trax is very comfortable. Looking forward to a summer of fun.
Got the board and used it the day it came with my wife. We love it, very stable and easy to maneuver. We also got the travelink system which makes for easy transport down to the water. Wish it had the paddle holder on the nose like the other boards offered.
I jumped on my board like a pro, even though I'm a beginner! It is very stable and takes the wakes of boats perfect for my inexperience. Comes with a great paddle also. The only thing missing was a line but luckily I had one. Very comfortable.
