Have Fun in the Sun with the iRocker Nautical Kids Paddleboard!

The iRocker SUP company is well-known for producing high-quality paddleboards. This well-known SUP company leaves a positive impression on its customers.

They have been very innovative in updating their paddleboards to ensure that they serve their customers a paddleboard that they will enjoy and meet their needs.

Each paddleboard has a distinct primary use and performance. They have a large selection of SUP boards! With iRocker, you can never go wrong!

Most Suitable For:

Depending on their primary use, the iRocker has a variety of SUP boards. They have a new Nautical Kids paddleboard that is ideal for children! This kid’s paddleboard is lightweight and the shortest SUP board in the iRocker lineup for improved stability.

This board is intended for children who want to practice and begin paddling, and the new Nautical Kids paddleboard is appropriate for children aged 8 to 14.

This paddleboard is simple to use and control in the water, making it easier for them to practice and enjoy paddling while on the water. You won’t have to worry about the quality of the Nautical Kids Paddleboard because it is built the same way as the other Nautical boards from iRockers.

The accessories for the iRocker are also compatible with the nautical kid’s paddleboard. If you’re looking for a SUP board for kids, look no further than this one! I’ll go over this kid’s stand-up paddleboard in greater detail below.

Pro’s

  • Children’s Inflatable Paddleboard at a Reasonable Price
  • Child-Friendly Accessories
  • This lightweight paddleboard is ideal for children aged 8 to 14.
  • Paddleboard with High-Quality Construction.
  • Lightweight Backpack for the Convenience of Children.
  • The 32″ width iSUP board provides excellent stability.
  • 2+1 Snap-lock fins that are simple to install.

Cons

  • It has height restrictions that make it unsuitable for children 5 feet tall.
  • D-rings are made of metal, which should be changed to a more kid-friendly material to avoid accidents, as children are more prone to falling.

What Makes The Nautical Kids Paddleboard Stand-Out

What distinguishes this paddleboard from others?

The New Nautical Kids Paddleboard is designed specifically for children, and not every SUP board company offers this type of paddleboard. The iRocker is the shortest paddleboard, and it is best suited for children aged 8 to 12.

It is a reasonably priced board, which I believe it should be because this could simply be a paddleboard on which they will be introduced to the world of paddling.

What I liked about this SUP board is that all the details and design are appropriate for children. One example is that it is lightweight but of high-quality construction, similar to the Nautical Boards on iRocker.

The accessories are kid-friendly, so they will have no trouble carrying or using them. Because of the 32″ width of this SUP board, they will be able to properly balance on board while practicing out in the water.

The New Nautical Kids Paddleboard is best used in flat waters, calm lakes, and marinas. If your child already knows how to paddle and wants an extra challenge, the Nautical Kids Paddleboard is also great on the ocean.

Given that this is a kid’s stand-up paddleboard, you must ensure that their safety is the top priority before they enjoy paddling out in the water.

Speed on the water
The Nautical Kids Paddleboard is not built for speed. This SUP board is designed to assist children who want to practice paddling and is suitable for children aged 8 to 12. Speed would excite kids, especially if they are already in control of the paddleboard, but the purpose of this New Nautical Kids paddleboard is to make kids comfortable for smaller/growing muscles and to have fun in the sun.

Transport
The nautical Kids Paddleboard is lightweight and designed for children, making this SUP board convenient to carry and transport! It also comes with a lightweight backpack to make it easy for kids to carry.

Stability
I tried this paddleboard with my 9-year-old niece, but due to my height and weight, I wasn’t able to adequately test the stability of this SUP board. However, if your child is between the ages of 8 and 12 and not taller than 5 feet, this SUP board is ideal for them. The stability of the SUP board is determined by the rider’s height and weight. But my niece has tested it on the water, so it must be stable.

My Niece’s Experience

The iRocker New Nautical Kids Paddleboard is made with the same high-quality materials as their adult paddleboards. Although I was unable to test this SUP board because it is intended for children rather than adults, this iSUP board is impressive in terms of its features, performance, and accessories.

My niece was able to use this board with ease and had a great time paddling in flat water. Before purchasing this, make sure that the rider is between the ages of 8 and 12 and that their height is less than 5 feet tall to fully appreciate what this paddleboard has to offer.

That being said, it would also determine the paddleboard’s stability. If you’re 5 feet taller and looking for the best paddleboard for your weight and height, I recommend the iRocker All-Around 10′.

The Nautical Kids Inflatable Paddleboard is a low-cost SUP board that does not sacrifice material quality. It is lightweight, has rigid performance, and is a long-lasting paddleboard.

The Nautical 9′ Kids Paddleboard has a 2+1 snap lock fin setup, which is advantageous for children who will use it because it will be easier for them to install. With this configuration, they would have excellent tracking while remaining maneuverable.

It has two dual bungees at the front and back that allow your children to store a dry bag or even a cooler bag to make their paddling experience more enjoyable! This ensures that the items brought are secure while paddling on the water.

A 1 action mount is also included to attach your Sports camera and capture every moment of paddling, as well as 18 D-ring attachments to secure any additional optional accessories that they want to add. This would allow them to enjoy their paddling experience even more!

The Nautical Kids paddleboard comes with high-quality accessories that are also compatible with the iRocker accessories. The backpack can be converted into a wheeled bag, making it easier for kids to carry and transport this SUP board!

Inflate / deflate
I was able to inflate this SUP boar in 5 minutes using the Single Chamber Hand Pump. The number of minutes would depend on your technique. However, because these are for children, if you want a convenient way for them to inflate the boards on their own, you should invest in a high-quality electric SUP pump so that it is not difficult for them to do so independently.

iRocker Nautical Kids Paddleboard 10

Warranty
The Nautical Kids paddleboard comes with a three-year warranty, ensuring that your children can enjoy this paddleboard without fear of damage.

Design
This paddleboard is an All-Around iSUP board that is intended for children who are at least 5 feet tall. Once on the water, the paddleboard’s great features are perfect for kids aged 8 to 12 years old. It comes in four different colors from which they can choose!

This paddleboard is not intended for speed, but it will provide you with a comfortable and easy-to-maneuver experience with excellent tracking. The Nautical Kids Paddleboard is ideal for children who want to learn to paddle due to its low price, features, and performance.


Included in the package

Paddle

The Nautical Kids Paddle comes with a fiberglass paddle with a nylon blade. As a rider who is taller than 5 feet, I was dissatisfied with the length of the paddle because it does not adjust enough to accommodate someone taller than 5 feet. Every aspect of this SUP board is best suited for children!

Repair Kit

These kids’ stand-up paddleboard comes with a repair kit. It includes patches, a valve wrench, and the option to purchase glue. Having this kit would be very useful, as would knowing that you have your kit with you in case something happens while you’re paddling.

Leash

Nautical Kids Paddleboard Leash

The Nautical Kids paddleboard comes with a 10′ leash that is easy to use and is specifically designed for children. Because they are more prone to falling, this would allow them to stay on their board while having fun in the water. The leash also has a key stash spot where they can secure any keys while out on the water paddling. This is one of the most important paddling accessories, especially for children.

High-pressure pump

This inflatable paddleboard for kids has a single chamber dual action pump that allows me to inflate it in less than 5 minutes. Because children will be using this SUP regularly, I believe it is more convenient for them to have an electric SUP pump, which will make their paddling experience more enjoyable without causing too much hassle! Kids can be very impatient when it comes to this!

Fins

Backpack

Kids will have no trouble carrying this SUP board on their own. The Premium travel backpack includes a roller tray option to make transporting the SUP board easier, especially for children. These wheels are designed to fit into the backpack’s bottom.

Optional Accessories

Kayak Conversion Kit

Because the Blackfin CX Ultra has numerous D-rings where you can easily attach this optional accessory, a kayak conversion kit would allow you to relax. This is a must-have, especially if you intend to spend a lot of time on the water.

Fanny Pack

A waterproof Fanny pack is a useful addition. This keeps your small items organized in one convenient small waterproof bag, eliminating the need to bring them out on the water. This is a useful bag, especially if you only want to bring the essentials with you, such as your car keys and phone.

SUP Cooler

If you intend to paddle for several hours, bring a SUP cooler bag with you. This will keep your drinks cold for a long time. The Blackfin CX Ultra Paddleboard has bungees in the front and back for storing your SUP cooler.

Waterproof Speaker

Who doesn’t want to listen to music while paddling on the water? Invest in a waterproof speaker and enjoy your favorite song while paddling in the water! This additional accessory can be mounted on the Blackfin CX Ultra’s action mounts!

Water Proof Phone Case

A waterproof phone case is required to ensure the safety of your phone while paddling on the water! Never pass up an opportunity to post something on social media, and to do so, you must ensure that your phone is not in danger while taking these photos!


Difference between an Inflatable board and a Hard board

Advantages Inflatable board

  • Easy to take on holiday (even on the plane)
  • Easy to store in the winter days
  • Much cheaper
  • Technology has improved greatly over the past 10 years. For this reason, these boards are now almost hard to distinguish from hard boards

Advantage Hardboard

  • More speed, which is important if you are a professional
  • Easier to make sharp turns on the water because the board is thinner
  • No inflation needed, you can get on the water right away
