Took out my new paddle board yesterday at Weeki Wachee springs. Great board, very happy with my decision to go with a Thurso board. Rides great, looks great.

The SUP is great, I have loved using it! The electric pump is also awesome - all my friends are jealous. I love the paddle holders in the side of the board - also a point of jealously. I also love all the lash points, the front and back handles, and that all the fins are removable. I also bought the kayak seat, but the straps on it are not 3 - it is super hard to adjust it so that it is functional to support your back, so I have just stopped using it. I like the paddle (carbon-hybrid), but the rubber sleeve covering the joint at the handle hits the latch point and pushes up a little - I am concerned about its longevity. Also, the handle half of the paddle barely fits in the bag - it would fit a lot better if that sleeve were not in the way of pushing the handle all the way down. Also, the latches on the handle are not 3; they do not hold the handle firmly to keep it from rotating. And this is after I tightening both latches from how they arrived (which was loose). Also, as a minor point I do not like the hexagonal rubber badge on the board - it is uncomfortable on my foot and knee at times. The bag is pretty 3 overall, but I wish the inner mesh pouch had velcro or some sort of closure at the top - every time you open it stuff falls out. In general I wish the bag had a separate spot for loose items: the repair kit, the tether, and the pump hose. All of this stuff is always getting in the way and falling out. Overall, I really like the board and get compliments on the way it looks.

I had to say goodbye to my old 8-year-old ISUP this year after the valve busted in last year's heat dome. We patched it, but alas, it was done. I loved that SUP and was worried I wouldn't find another nearly as great - but the Waterwalker has proven to be a wonderful replacement, AND a step up from my last one. All of the extra d-rings, the easy click-in-place fins, and the durable construction are very much appreciated. We just got back from a 2 week camping vacation and it held up well in both lakes and the ocean - very stable and maneuvers well. So far, I'm very pleased! And the colours/design are beautiful - lots of compliments. Highly recommend!

I am thoroughly enjoying my third surf water walker 126. Great all around board, maneuvers well. I use it on Lake Tahoe and it it has been great in calm and wavy water. The electric pump is a must, inflates in about 10 minutes and you’re 3 to go. The case it cames with is sturdy and everything packs up nicely in there, including pump. And it is super stylish too.

Finally able to use my Mother's Day gift last week. I had a great time on it! My ten year old sat on the front and we easily paddled around the lake for about an hour. Easy to inflate/deflate. Felt sturdy, easy to balance even when son was moving a bit :)

This is a great starter board for multiple uses and comes with all the essentials needed to paddle. I have used my board for full days of paddling, SUP yoga, and paddling with my pup. Highly recommend trying out a Waterwalker board if you’re new to paddling and want a multipurpose board.

Thanks so much, Casey! It's awesome to hear you're using your Waterwalker 126 for all kinds of fun activities on the water. That's what the all-around board shape is all about! See you on the water, Matt Social @ Thurso Surf

This is our second SUP. The first was another brand but it has since met it’s demise after numerous leaks and problems. We ordered the Thurso due to a recommendation from a friend that is also very satisfied with theirs. This board and associated equipment is much better quality than what we had before. We are extremely happy with our new Thurso 126. We have already recommended it to friends that are looking to replace their SUPs: Thanks Thurso!
