Join me as I deep-dive into a full review of the new Isle Switch 2-in-1 iSUP (and inflatable kayak).
The Isle Switch took me by surprise! The Switch is a high-capacity, high-stability inflatable paddleboard that punches way above its size class in performance. It also includes a high-quality kayak conversion kit that takes ergonomics, efficiency and comfort into consideration.
Check out our full written review with dozens of photos and detailed test results.

What do you get when you cross a large, high-capacity, all-around inflatable paddleboard with the most advanced materials and construction techniques available? Spoilers: it's the Isle Switch. At 35.5" wide, the Switch doesn't paddle like a wide board. It's fast on the sprint and glides incredibly efficiently. The new Isle Link attachment system allows for deep customization of the board.
The included kayak conversion kit isn't just a glorified stadium-seat. The seat features a 4" thick drop-stitch inflatable bottom, 18" high seat back, and is paired with an inflatable drop-stitch foot brace for a more comfortable and efficient kayak paddling experience.

Thanks for the review. Just picked this up for a total cost with tax of $680. Which also includes the electric pump. They’re giving great deals right now.

Maybe it’s just me but I’d like to see this unit in slightly rough waters or class II rivers.

For sure! It can be hard to plan around weather and to keep things fair between testing different boards we try to minimize the impact of weather from day to day. However, I have used the Switch on rivers and I am a whitewater SUPer as well. Up to Class II the Switch will work very well, however you'll want to swap out the included fin for a smaller one (I prefer a 4.5" gummy fin). Beyond class II you'll definitely need more maneuverability offered by a proper whitewater SUP.

Excellent review…thank you! Bought one and love it! What do you think of the Explorer 2.0.? Can also convert to Kayak 😊

@InflatableBoarder 8 ай бұрын

Glad you are enjoying it! Funnily enough, the Explorer 2.0 is pretty much the only Isle iSUP that we haven't tested! I have tested the Explorer Pro, however and it is fantastic. It can also convert easily to a kayak with the same Isle Link system and I've used the 14' Explorer Pro as a tandem kayak with great success.

Just came across this video How would you compare this to the TAHE Beach SUP-Yak 2-in-1 Hybrid Inflatable Kayak Which comes with 2 seats How do you think the isle would do with 2 people

@InflatableBoarder 8 ай бұрын

Hi there, sorry for the delay in response. I haven't used the Tahe Beach SUP-yak (yet) but have used one of their Breeze iSUPs, so unfortunately I can't make a direct comparison. The Switch does very well with two adults. It's really outstanding at maintaining its level of performance with two people.

@InflatableBoarder- I would love to know how long those polyethylene loops will last with the stress of the seat back straps yanking them so hard to the left. What do you think? I think I'd prefer the usual D-rings.

@InflatableBoarder 15 күн бұрын

So far no issues. They are also coated with a finish (I'm not 100% sure what that finish is) so it isn't just raw PE fabric. The anchoring mechanism for the tabs is quite secure and I've not had any issues with them ripping free. For having so many mounting points I much prefer the PE tabs to having dozens of D-rings.
