EXPÉDITION GRATUITE

Whether you're just starting out or experienced, this board is a great choice! I love how rigid and sturdy it is, and how it handles waves and rough water. I also get a ton of compliments on how the board looks like it's a real wood board. Highly recommend the sequoia 11 if you're looking for a new board or upgrade

I've been SUPing for over 20 years. Hardboard have been my standard. I've had just a few experiences on inflatables and have been underwhelmed with the boards. Since I bought my rv, I decided to invest in an inflatable SUP that I could easily transport and that wouldn't be as heavy as my hardboard. I did a LOT of research. Wild Tribe continually came in as a top choice for the most hardboard like experience. I prefer long boards, and found a nice selection on the website.
When I received the board, I was impressed with the storage bag and how neatly everything fit inside. Even after first use, it was easy to repack the board. I honestly expected to have to work hard to make it fit back into the pack, but it all fit back in with very little effort.
The ride: compared to the other cheaper boards I had previously tried, The Sequoia was surprisingly more stable and easier to maneuver. I still had the sensation of bobbing on top of the water like a cork, but it was a surprisingly more stable ride than I expected. Hard boards still have a more solid ride in my experience, but I am happy with this inflatable. The advertising boasts about being able to pump up to 18psi, but then there is a sticker on the board that if you are paddling in hot, sunny conditions to only pump to 12psi. That is perfectly understandable because of how hot air expands, but I felt it touched on false advertising, because they don't mention that in the advertising. I did enjoy the stiffness of the board at 13psi (it was hot and sunny) and surprised that it didn't feel at all like an air mattress, but very much like my hard boards. The deck was solid, perfect width. Love all the tie downs and D rings. The paddle was decent, but I chose to use my own. Once I got accustomed to the extra bouancy of the inflatable, I quickly settled into a very enjoyable afternoon of paddling. At one point my adult daughter and I both rode the board to see how it would handle a heavier load. I actually liked having more weight on the board, made it less reactive to every little wave. I was more pushed around by wind than I would have been on my hard board, but not as badly as I had expected to be. The Sequoia glides through the water nicely and is easily maneuvered. I appreciate the adjustability of the main fin, allowing for different rides.
Inflating the board took me just under 7 minutes with the provided manual pump. The last 4+ minutes were challenging. Deflation was a breeze!
Overall I am nicely surprised by how much I enjoyed this board. I am super happy with this purchase and am excited that I will be able to paddle no matter where I travel to in my rv. I highly recommend Wild Tribe for SUP products.

I can’t even begin to say how much I am enjoying this board. It’s pretty simple to set up and also pack away. It’s sturdy, it’s solid and it’s stunning. My dog and I are loving it so far.

Very fast for an inflatable SUP, great design and the backpack is very comfortable compare to others

I love my new NAIA 10’
It’s super stable and easy to set up/take down plus glides well and feels great.
I didn’t notice the beaver on it when I ordered it. I don’t love the beaver image but I love the rest of the design and think it’s an absolutely beautiful board to ride. Here’s to many many kms to come!

I was looking for a smaller, lighter board that I could also use with my kayak style seat. I did a good deal of research and finally decided on the Kawela. So glad I did! Took it out for my first paddle and it exceeded my expectations. Not only is it light, it has a fast glide and is easily maneuverable. Definitely recommend!

Great board. Nice and stable. And great customer service throughout the entire process. Tofino dry bag is nice and sturdy and does what it made for keep your stuff dry.

Spent quite a few hours on the water this past weekend out camping in the middle of nowhere. Board is very stable and quick to change directions. My husband said he could see me in the distance because of the paddle colours. I even took a sun nap on it. Fast to inflate and deflate. 5 stars!

Got my board on Friday and did my first paddle on Sunday on the Holland River. We did 11km in heavy wind (gusts over 40KM/hr). It was a really tough cross-wind but I felt completely safe on the Sequoia. Could not stand up a lot as the wind kept knocking me over but I never flipped or fell in. On Monday I did a further 5km at the Rouge National Urban Park. I stood almost the whole way and my friends commented on how comfortable I looked on the board. See pics attached. Really happy with my purchase. If you have a bad sense of balance like I do - this is the board for you!

I’m a pretty experienced paddler and over the last ten years have had many different boards from isups to race boards. I purchased this board specifically for me and my dog. I wanted something stable and light and Canadian made if possible.

⭐️ Love that it’s so fast to pump up at 15psi!
👎 I only have a small complaint, it’s a bit heavy for me to walk with fully inflated a few blocks but it could be that I am weak too. The other thing is the paddle has white paint which knicks easily. Cosmetic only.

On the water I only cared that it’s stable and isn’t super slow. It was perfect and can’t wait to test out more places.

The kit gives you everything you need and I wanted something quality. Rinsing off and storing you can tell it’s constructed well.

I absolutely love this board!!!! Highly recommend if you have issues getting back on a traditional 6” thick inflatable.

Love this board! It’s so stable and light which makes it easy to bring my dog onboard. It is also really easy to inflate and has a lot of neat add on features. Highly recommend!

Order arrived with all part’s required and instructions. Easy to assemble. This is an inflatable board and is easy to carry. Stable in the water

Super impressed with the quality of this board and the company going above and beyond to make my purchase experience special. Could not be happier.

I have had an opportunity to take the board out twice so far. I have to say the additions and way it is made is so helpful for my disability. I see my friends boards with less cargo holds or handles etc and I didn't think about it at the time, but these additions make such a different. I love the look of the board and it looks well made. Would definitely recommend!
