The Bluefin Sprint is a performance-oriented inflatable SUP that can be used for everything from touring to racing. Measuring 14′ x 30″ x 6″ and weighing in at 29 pounds, the Sprint is loaded with plenty of D-rings and dual-bungee storage areas for bringing along extra gear.

Our write-up, the Bluefin SUP Sprint board review, confirms why this SUP is ideal for the paddler who appreciates the quality construction and affordable pricing of the company’s Cruise series, but who is willing to sacrifice all-around versatility for added speed.

The premium Bluefin Sprint Carbon, like its non-carbon sibling is a performance-oriented iSUP designed for touring and racing. It sports identical dimensions at 14′ x 30″ x 6″ with a similar compliment of of D-rings and dual-bungee storage areas for bringing along extra gear.

What sets it apart is the integration of carbon composite side rails for additional stiffness as well as a second inflation chamber under your standing position. This provides some additional stiffness as well if inflated to to the maximum PSI as well as an extra safety facture in the event of a puncture to the outside chamber.

The included accessories also get a boost with a premium wheeled bag, a dual chamber, three-stage pump, and carbon composite paddle.

New for 2020! If you are looking for an stable board that provides balance for Yoga or aqua-based fitness, the extra-wide Bluefin Aura Fit is made-to-order while still being good for all-around paddling.

Bluefin uses 1000 Denier Exo Surface Laminate PVC and a Pro Weave Drop stitch in their construction, making them strong enough to hold up to 28 PSI and 350 lbs. of weight.  The Aura Fit package includes fins that click in quickly, a double-action pump, backpack with wide straps and extra padding and lighter-than-normal 2-piece paddle.

For paddlers in search of the ultimate in stability, the Bluefin SUP Voyage is definitely a board worth checking out. Featuring a triple-chamber design and wide 38″ profile, the Voyage is a good choice for activities such as SUP fishing and on-the-water fitness workouts (although serious SUP fitness enthusiasts will probably find the deck-mounted rod holders to be uncomfortable).

This SUP includes a dual-action iSUP pump, 3-piece adjustable fiberglass paddle, two fishing rod holders, leash, travel bag, and inflatable SUP repair kit.

The Bluefin Mammoth is a massively large SUP that’s perfect for days on the water with family and friends. This 18′ big SUP can handle up to 10 paddlers and the 60″ wide design provides plenty of stability.

While Bluefin ships the Mammoth with a dual-action pump, leash, repair kit, and carrying bag, we’d love to see a second pump added to the bundle along with some paddles. Perhaps this is something that the company will consider adding in the future and it would definitely make this large iSUP a more compelling buy for those in search of group fun.
