Excellent first board for the heavier crew.
This is my first SUP and I have had it twelve months now. It has had a lot of use on canals, sea and rivers in all weather conditions except ice! At 98Kgs I am a heavier paddler and I sought advice from Red. The 12'6 is an incredible board, very buoyant and fairly quick. I love the pump and the build quality although the stainless fittings need regular oiling to prevent them rusting, in the screw threads particularly.
I use a deck bag and carry a weight of gear but always find the board comfortable and easy to manage. I have a few third party fins and an additional one piece paddle but the three piece paddle still gets regular use.
