Summary

If you like to travel light, the NIXY 9'6" Huntington G4 Adventure Inflatable Stand Up Paddle Board is what you need. The inflatable SUP features a reasonably portable construction – weighing only 18.75 lbs. Its supporting components such as the three-piece paddle complements its portability; making it easy to travel with it anywhere. Nonetheless, the iSUP offers more than just its lightweight fabrication.

The paddleboard features just the right balance in size, rigidity, and stability to make it a beast on the water! If you are up for any adventure on the water, the Huntington G4 Adventure's versatile design makes it a perfect choice. The stand up paddleboard features a dual layer PVC fabrication which gives it a high tensile finish.

The dual layer PVC material goes through an advanced fusion lamination and integrates a woven drop stitch technology to give you an unbeatable edge and longevity on water. Just to give you that subtle style, the board features a white and blue board with fun graphics. On the paddleboard, you will find a non-slip soft NIXY logo stamped and grooved as well as a UV-protected traction pad.

The reinforced carbon side rails help to further reinforce the stiffness, rigidity, and durability of the stand up paddleboard. At the bottom, the paddleboard features a twin fin set up around the tail. The removable fins use the grab handle to elevate them off the ground to prevent dragging and potential damage from elements such as rocks on the beach.

Speaking of versatility, the paddleboard owes this characteristic to its perfect dimensions. Measuring 9 feet 6 inches long by 32 inches wide by 6 inches thick, the board is extra stable and offers a large deck for added performance. In fact, its balanced focus on stability makes the iSUP a perfect adventure board for any type of iSUPer – whether you are season one or a beginner.

Additionally, the stable board features an easy-to-remove tool-less large fin, adjustable & removable nose, and an optional kayak seat. The three grab handles that can be adjustable and removed are fitted at the center handle. Furthermore, you will also find 14 D-rings, 4 action mounts, and a tail bungee system for inventive storage. A side bungee paddle holder makes it easy and convenient to access the paddle.

Thanks to its superior construction, the paddleboard delivers a relatively high capacity performance. Weighing only 18.75 lbs, the paddleboard can support individuals weighing up to 250 lbs. However, experienced riders can easily exceed this limit without any problem.

When you purchase the iSUP, you will get more components to make this an excellent investment, in addition to the board and the carbon fiber hybrid paddle. In the package, you will also receive a hand pump, a hybrid leash, and a backpack.

Each of these useful components comes with its fair share of unique features. The carbon fiber hybrid paddle features a 3-piece construction which makes it easy to pack, store, and transport. The paddle is also adjustable – with a length range of between 67 inches and 84 inches. The paddle also features a comfortable T-grip for added functionality.

The hand pump features a dual chamber high pressure triple action performance. It is attached with an accurate analog gauge and inflates up to 29 PSI. Furthermore, it features a low pressure to high pressure switch. Weighing about 4.37 lbs, the hand pump has removable handles and foldable legs to add to its portability.

The hybrid leash features a high quality polyurethane cord and stainless steel double swivels. Fitted with a deluxe ankle strap, the leash also integrates a hybrid coiled/straight design which makes it perfect for paddleboards. For even better mobility, the NIXY Huntington G4 comes with a three-wheeled heavy duty backpack.

The backpack is also fitted with extra padded straps for added comfort and cargo hooks. Storage-wise, the pack accommodates the board and all its components plus, it offers more storage space for smaller items. The pack features side pockets with drainage elements and pockets to insert shoulder straps in case you want to wheel the bag.

User Experience

Usability: 97% – When it comes to usability, the inflatable SUP does a pretty good job. The lightweight paddleboard comes with all necessary accessories to make the setup process quite easy. Its stable and rigid features make the paddleboard perfect for all types of riders –whether you are a beginner or experienced. However, due to its shorter length and smaller fin setup, the paddleboard may not offer the best tracking performance. Poor tracking is especially more prevalent during windy days. So, whilst the stability and rigidity are top notch, tracking for this paddleboard is excellent.

Durability: 98% – The paddleboard’s reinforced PVC construction alone gives it exceptional strength and durability. However, it also integrates additional features that passively help to enhance its durability whilst working on their own respective functions. For example, the grab handles help to move the twin fins at the tail – protecting them against impact with rocks on beaches. A wheeled backpack even comes with the iSUP helping to further protect it and its components against elements in the outdoors and during transport and storage.

Pros:

Built with optimal stability and rigidity
Lightweight and portable build makes it easy to transport it
The 3-piece paddle breaks away for easy storage
Easy-to-haul wheeled backpack with soft padded shoulder straps

Cons:

The hand pump maybe a little too small
It doesn’t offer the best tracking

Overall Rating

Usability: 97% – As mentioned above, the NIXY Huntington G4 Adventure iSUP does an excellent job when it comes to portability, stability, and rigidity. The iSUP also works best for both adventure-loving beginner and seasoned riders. Nevertheless, tracking isn’t the best due to the short length and smaller twin fin design. It would’ve been better if the paddleboard had larger fins as they can help provide straight-line tracking.

Durability: 99% – Generally, the Huntington G4 Adventure iSUP does an excellent job when it comes to its durability and quality thanks to its construction. Its stability and rigidity are where it holds points the most. Inflating up to 15 PSI, it remains to provide the same performance even after multiple uses. There certainly isn’t much to complain about the inflatable SUP when it comes to durability.

Price: 95% – Price-wise, the paddleboard is certainly not a budget iSUP. Nonetheless, if you can afford it, you will find that it is worth the investment.

Overall: 98% – In general, the NIXY Huntington G4 Adventure iSUP is perfect for paddlers of all levels. However, it does a better job in ensuring stability, rigidity, and comfort as opposed to speed and tracking. Nevertheless, its durable construction and portability make it worth the investment.

Globo Surf Overview

What makes the NIXY Huntington G4 Adventure Inflatable Stand Up Paddleboard stand out is its portability.

Additionally, thanks to its beautiful blue and white design with unique graphics, the paddleboard definitely boosts your style on the water!
