    After a lot of research this was my choice and I think it was a good one!

    I was looking for something to make me a little faster. I am small under 5 foot. So I needed to find something that I can carry and also isn’t too overwhelmingly big for me. I’m also a very beginner/intermediate level. I spent days and hours looking at reviews and researching and comparing prices. Finally this board had most everything that I was looking for at a price that I could afford. I also require an inflatable since I drive a convertible beetle (tiny). I just took this out yesterday for the first time after receiving it 2days ago. I definitely felt an increase in my speed (over my prior 10‘33“ wide inflatable) and I was able to keep up with my SUP group.

    Satisfying

    After an exhaustive amount of research into the paddleboard world. I had it narrowed down to three boards with similar sorts of composition. I was having a difficult time making the final decision I reached out to a friend /colleague to ask his opinion and he just so happen to have one of the boards that I was looking at. The “Gili Meno”. He let me try his out and within minutes my decision had been made this was the one. I was so excited that I placed my order while I was out on the water, man you have to love technology. After receiving the board my wife and I took my board and a loaned inflatable kayak that she was looking at out onto the water we paddled around for a bit and switched vessels. After only just a few strokes in the water with my wife on the Meno board she explained I want one of these. Ordered a second Board and couldn’t be happier. The folks in customer service have been outstanding to address any issues that I may have had. I really do like working with this company hope you do too….

    FAST!

    We have used maybe 5 different boards in the past mostly solid ones and this board feels great. No complaints about inflatable vs solid, not even a thought while using it. We went out on a windy lake and pushed HARD and it was great in the wind both tacking and straight on. I like how well it tracks, I don't have to switch sides too much and still go straight. Weight limit: The limit is 300 lbs and my partner and I happen to add up to almost exactly that and it handles it really well. We went all over the lake together, wind and all, and I pulled in a fish while we were at it. Order Received: 4 stars because we didn't get a pump with the order (we borrowed someone else's at the lake) and of the three fins we got two are the same. I'm not too worried about it though shipping was fast and free and I'm sure they will correct the issue promptly. The backpack: The backpack sucks pretty bad. I new this would be the case but It's worth mentioning. We do a lot of sports and have a lot of backpacks. we aren't strangers to 30, 50, or even 70 pound packs and it doesn't really matter how heavy the bag is as long as its sitting on your hips properly. I wouldn't want this bag to sit on the waist straps even if it did fit me (I'm 6 ft tall 160 lbs and its too big). The hard bottom which is meant to house the wheels and support the load when rolling digs into my tail bone and all the weight is on my shoulders and it is not adjustable. The bag having wheels is great though. Also there are loops on the front and sides that I would assume are for the paddle but the pieces don't fit. Not sure what that's all about. Also the bag seems about 8" too tall for the board we bought and even once we get the pump I can't imagine it filling out that top section which also bothers me. I guess they use the same bag for all the boards? In the grand scheme of things not that big of a deal. Once your out on the water it's all good.

    Meno 12’6”

    We are new to paddle boarding. I first bought a 14’ board that is 32” wide. My wife thought she would maybe like a slightly smaller board, but didn’t want to lose too much speed. So, after lot’s of research we decided to go with this 12’6”, 31 inch wide board. Was pleasantly surprised that we really didn’t lose any stability by going slightly narrower. Speed is slightly less than the 14 ‘, but still really good. And, the board is way more comfortable to stand on for 30 minute plus trips than the other board we have. Great board overall. Everything in the package is excellent quality. The full carbon paddle is great. The wheeled bag has a fin pocket and seems like it will hold up for many years. They are currently out of stock, but we really want to add the kayak seat when they are available. This is another nice option on this board. There are dedicated attachment points for the kayak seat. My only experience with Gili’s customer service was exceptional. I would definitely recommend this board and company. And full disclosure, I have zero affiliation with Gili Sports,

    Unboxing

    I’m boxing my Meno touring board right now and can’t wait to get out on the water this afternoon. This is my third iSUP and the first I’m getting with distance and speed in mind. Shipping was fast (and free!) and the board and accessories arrived well packaged and in perfect condition. Lots of small details that show the knowledge and appreciation that went into designing this board! Will update when I’ve been on it for a variety of conditions
