so basically, ill just buy two $300 PB from costco, if one goes bad, return 1st PB anytime and I'll still have the 2nd backup PB to use. Costco has newer PB models every year during summer, so no need to buy the $1000?

Thanks for the information. This has helped me make my decision. 👍

Ok - so yes nice video - my take on it all is this -- my wife just bought me a Hydro force oceana now i cant find a bad review any where its a 10ft ×5" x 32" wide i have used it twice in surf ( i am a newbie @ 63 years young ) so i did get up on it and had some fun --- quality i know its not the best but here is the thing all of these boards including the RED & fatsticks the Job boards all come out of the same factories in China ( 5 factories in total ) Red apparently own one of them !!! mine 15 psi so according to you that confirms its not a good board - it is as solid as a rock with zero flex that i can see - also as far as i am concerned its very well built ... this is my take on it the equipment with my board is lets say medioka - the paddle is ok actually aluminium shaft but well made ... the pump Bag & seat and footrest is i would say pound shop stuff but hey if the board does the job thats fine and thats the way a lot of these are branded and marketed .... I have seen in jargon on top end brands - constructed out of millitary grade PVC 😂😂😂 there is no such bloody thing ... I have also watched these boards being made in said factories and actually its very much a hand build operation and the workmanship to be fair to the chinese is pretty good ... I think my wife paid around £240 -- another point i would like to make is price does not always reflect quality i bought a sit on kyak years ago paid good money for this branded item it actually was just that a branded item i could of bought the exact same kyak on ebay for half the money so i paid £200 for a logo that washed off in the surf - so please people dont assume if you pay more you get more do the research on the board you are buying ... cheers steven

That was a waste of time
