Inflatable SUP Authority is a website that specializes on the future of paddle boarding, inflatable stand up paddle boards. Our aim is to give you no BS reviews on products we have used and heavily researched to allow you to to make an informed decision.
We take our research very seriously as we put hours upon hours looking for the good and the bad of each board.
This website’s goal is also to inform SUP enthusiasts of all ages about what to look for, what brands to look for and how to use and care for your inflatable board from start to finish.
What differentiates us from other review websites is the fact that we test these boards and show you first hand how the Paddle Board handles in the water. Using a Gopro I strap onto myself to film exactly how the board feels while in the water.
My take is based on my 10 years experience of paddling inflatable boards in the water. This allows me to have a good basis on what works well for paddlers with different needs.

Hi, my name is Derek and I’m the founder of inflatable SUP Authority. If my face seems a bit familiar to you it’s because I am also the founder of Inflatable Kayak Authority and my oldest project, Floating Authority.
I have over 20 years of experience in water sports and countless stories to tell all across Canada and parts of the U.S.A.
These days my favorite activity to do is stand up paddle boarding. So much so that I’ve convinced all of my friends to get inflatable paddle boards to see all that British Columbia and Canada has to offer (fun fact Canada has the most lakes and coastline in the entire world 😉 ).
In this instance I really wanted to focus on Inflatable Paddle Boards as I believe they are the future of the industry.
Lets face it, many people are downsizing these days, but the good news is you can still have fun on the water thanks to these inflatable boards that fold up to the size of a hockey bag.
