If you enjoy travelling with toys but try to keep the weight to a minimum, then I can't imagine a better inflatable SUP to accompany you on your adventures. I took the Flyweight to Costa Rica for 3 weeks and did absolutely everything with it. Paddling small rivers to the sea, enjoying daily cruises within the bays and to offshore islands, exploring reefs and their awesome eco-systems at low tide, surfing, and even a four day self supported trip down the Nicoya coastline. The Flyweight is the ultimate travel companion and handled everything with stability and ease well beyond its weight or size. While not necessarily intended for the open ocean that stability was a welcome surprise when the winds picked up and created a little more chop than I'd hoped for.
Along with the performance of the board, its lightweight construction allows for easy carrying - 15 minute walks to and from la playa daily (and sometimes more than once) were a piece of cake. The paddled carry handle is on point. Packing & checking the board, pump and all of my personal effects into one bag was a bonus as well - AND NO EXTRA FEES AT THE AIRPORT :)
If you enjoy travelling I can't imagine a more capable board to bring with you for all types of endeavors. As much as it opened up new doors abroad I can't wait to get home to Colorado and see where the next adventure in the backyard awaits. Badfish SUP is truly Shaping Adventure with the Flyweight.
