I know there has been discussion on inflatable SUP on here before , but.....

Which one is the best ?

Three piece SUP ? Any one seen one yet ?

I need something like this , I think the inflatable will end up being the answer , but if I could get a three piece 10 foot x 32 in a suit case I would be happy as a pig in .......

The 2 & 3 piece bi-sect / tri-sect boards have real merrit. I've heard mixed reports. I think they would be quite fine in smaller weaker waves, and probably surf OK. But in bigger surf, it would mentally do my head in!

There is a guy at my local break that rides a 3 piece and it looks like the way I would go if I was doing a lot of traveling, surfs well for a 10ft board, something I don't think the blow ups do.

I have just bought an Uli inflatable , after doing a fair bit of research , this one looked like a good option ...

I will post my thoughts after a few sessions

BTW, I am a SUP newbie , and have no affiliation with any shop or brand ... ie I pay for my gear ...
