Over the past few years, I have surfed various stand-up paddleboards. Unfortunately, the paddleboards available to rent in Oahu and Kauai are not designed for surfing, so I am constantly frustrated by the poor, oversized boards I am forced to ride.
I recently read a review of an inflatable surfing-focused paddleboard from an Australian Company called Honu. Their Honu Bondi small portable surfboard SUP can be easily transported on an airplane and performs well in small to head-high waves.
The SUPboarder magazine conducted a thorough review and was impressed by the board's quality. Since there was a Black Friday sale, I decided to purchase the following gear from Honu:
- Honu Bondi 8'8" SUP - $801
- Eva Bamboo Carbon Paddle (3-piece) - $208.25
- Super Hand Pump - $38.25
I plan to use the Honu Bondi at Oahu, Kauai, Lake Tahoe, and Punta Mita (and anywhere else where surfing is possible).
After ordering the board from Honu's website, I received it via FedEx on Wednesday, December 4, 2024. Everything fits in the backpack, but I hoped it had more pockets.
