I noticed on your website that a picture shows a "max" inflation of 10psi, yet you claim is 15psi? I am a big man 270lbs. Will this board support me and give me a decent ride. Also, I will need by 4/10/14 and live in Sacramento area of California. Will...

Our 2014 Wahoo Inflatables are all rated at 15PSI. As we continue to refine the manufacturing process and gain more experience with our boards, the PSI rating continues to improve. The 12' is rated at a very conservative 320 pound capacity so you should be fine on the board. Yes, we can get you one in time.

It is a little tricky, I weigh 165# and rode it just prove I could to my 125# daughter who said that couldn't, how ever my 180 # son sunk 1st one end and then the other to every ones amusement but his. I have never ridden a larger SUP, but at 165# I think I'll be able to paddle it all I want to., hope this helps.Lewis Kennedy

Well, you are not alone. I completely missed that wt limit also, if it was there. None of my friends can use it. One friend who is 145lb could not really make it work. We ended up doing some redneck engineering with some boat bumpers and can sit on it, but not stand. I am going to save for my neices and nephews, but all of my crew is too heavy.

Hi! I'm not really sure. My brother is who owns the board his weight is 165 lbs aprox. I think the board will support you because I have a heavier cousin who has a board too but I don't know which brand is it. Sorry for not being helpful.

I also had the same back in the days. The feeling is exactly the same, versatile on any conditions, lots of feedback basically you dont think about the board just concentrate on fun. The only difference in my case is that i found it a bit slower than before , but it could just me with more kilos onboard, lol. But overall same fun as back in the days, just make sure you get a good set of flippers.

I have no idea what the manufacturer says because I never ask or looked in my owner's manual. Upon receiving this e-mail asking about maximum weight capacity, I pulled out my owner's manual and I looked cover to cover and that topic is never addressed. I weight 255 pounds and ido not have any problems riding it. Very smooth and very easy to right. In the manual there is a toll free # listed for service and technical support. Call them, they should be able to give you a reall answer to your question. 1-800-626-2811. Good Luck.

I weigh in at 225 and use the board for what it's meant for...LONG BOARDING/Cruzing! I use Tracker Trucks with OJ Wheels and I receive a smooth ride. On a scale 0-10 I would rate the flex at a 7 (for me) ! Durability has been strong and I haven't noticed any breakdown with the material! The first thing I did when I got it: 1. Sanded entire board. 2 added own artwork 3. Applied several coats of varathane. Also, I added two risers 1/8th inch thick underneath each truck. This wasdone to absorb road conditions. Over all I feel it's a good solid board. HopeThis helps out.

At 180 lbs., I am fine on this board. I would imagine you can notch up another 10 to 15 lbs.

I purchased the board last fall so I've not given much thought to it. I've been surfing for a number of years so I thought it was an easy installation . I am out of town until 8-11. If u can wait that long e mail me ggarciaiii@gmail.comI'll b happy to help u. George

Definitely 180mm trucks with 1/2 risers. Wheels can be anything upward of 70mm. I'd recommend 74mm 80a wheels for this board. Have fun man.

Hi, I have been surfing over 35 years. You weigh about the same as me. If I were you I would get an 8 foot "funboard" shape, or better yet, around a nine foot longboard. Probably a used board would be your best bet for a first board. If you want something new, INT Softboards is a good brand and it is made in the USA - I'd go for the 9 foot model if you choose this route. - have fun

Well this board is heavy and kinda rides slow on level ground, but downhill is ok, I actually jus changed the wheels on it and the ride is ok. But the atom drop deck I haven't had a chance to try it out, but it may be a better choice........"may be", not too sure tho.

Im 235 and its too soft for me. I just sold mine for $100 because my back started to hurt. I tried to contact customer service first, but they won't do anything for you until the mattress starts to sag over 1". I did purchase a great mattress from Costco thought, being Costco, I can return/exchange it at any time for any reason. Its a firm luxury and I am sleeping well now. My wife is 125, she was fine with the Lucid.

Hi Jan, 47" might be pushing it but it would be close. Looks like you're getting lots of help from the CC community. Be safe! Ted in McKinney TX.
