I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

The Tower Inflatable 9’10” Stand Up Paddle Board is an amazing product that offers incredible rigidity.
It is also very easy to store, making it a convenient option for those who have limited space.
This paddle board is stable and maneuverable, providing a great experience for users of all skill levels.
What sets this board apart is that it is a viable alternative to EPS/Epoxy boards. This just goes to show the quality and durability of this product.
When it comes to deflating and rolling up the board, the best way to do it is by using a powered inflator/deflator. This method ensures that all the air is removed and allows the board to roll up as small as possible.
For those who are wondering how to use the pump gauge, it takes around 180 pumps to reach the recommended 10-11 PSI. The needle may not start moving until around 130 pumps, but as you continue pumping, you'll notice it becomes harder and the pressure increases.
To carry the board in your car trunk without getting it wet, simply wipe it down with a towel before deflating it enough to fit in the car. Tower also offers a carrying backpack, but please note that it is not waterproof.
As for stability on class III whitewater rivers, this paddle board has proven itself on the Colorado River in Glenwood Canyon. Users have praised its performance and are looking forward to using it on similar adventures in the future.
Summary
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best way to deflate it and which way to roll it up?
The best way to deflate is to use a powered inflator/deflator. I picked one up that uses the 12v connector in your car or boat. Use it with the pump hose to get ALL of the air out and seal the valve. The board rolls up as small as possible when this method is used.
Hi, how do I use teh pump gauge? After I hook up the pump, the guage points down and the needle doesn't move at all?
It took me 180 pumps to get it to the 10-11 PSI as instructed. The needle didnt start moving until around 130 or so pumps when it became harder to pump. the first 100 pumps i did sitting down with one hand ( 8 min total to pump)
I need a waterproof carry bag to carry this board in the trunk of my car and not get the trunk wet. Any suggestions?
I just wipe it down with a towel before deflating enough to fit in car. Tower offers a carrying-backpack type of thing but it isn't waterproof. The whole wipe-down-deflate-load up takes less than 5 minutes.
