Great review of the HD Bote. You have covered all the bases for sure. Helps me to decide if I want to get this or not.

I bought this exact board! What electric pump did you buy for this?

I have a few electric pumps haha. The ones I own which I like the best are iRocker' Electric pump, Outdoor Master Shark II. I've also heard a lot of good things about Sea Gods electric pump and the Nixy Ventus.

Do you like this more over the blackfin XL 6.0?
@inflatablesupauthority2 ай бұрын
I actually just tested the Blackfin XL 6.0 a few days ago. I would say it depends on what you are using the board for. This years BOTE HD Aero comes with more accessories compared to the Blackfin XL. I found both to be very stable although I would give a very slight edge to the BOTE HD Aero for pure stability. In terms of paddling, I found the Blackfin XL 6.0 tracked better and definitely handled wind/ tide better than the HD Aero. In my mind, HD Aero is better for those calm lake conditions where it's relatively calm out while the Blackfin Ultra CX is a board that better suits paddling further distances and being in coastal areas.
