My wife and I have both have enjoyed paddle sports in the past, but our first love is climbing. Recently we moved to Las Vegas which has endless rock climbing opportunities, but in the summer it's HOT. With Lake Mead and the Colorado River in our backyard we took the plunge and purchased two Monarchs. As first time paddleboarders we could be happier with our decision. As an all rounder, the Monarch has been a great board for learning the subtleties of balance and correct paddling form. We have ventured out in choppy conditions, "surfed" some passing power boat wakes and even loaded up the boards with overnight gear and camped out along Lake Mead. We both can't wait for more adventures with these awesome paddle boards! Here is a link to our overnight camping trip https://youtu.be/jrytE81QDW0

So far flawless and a great product. On the river and on Lake Powell.

Just got through paddling my new Monarch and vey happy witht he purchase. Handles great, easy to set up, nice and compact for travel & storage and just a great ll around board. Customer Service was great as well. You can tell this is coming from a company that has a lot of soul for paddling and live it & breath it. These guys are the real deal and so is this board. Very happy with my purchase.

The most stable inflatable Paddle Board I have ever used. 10/10 would recommend.

I am new to paddle boards. The people at bad fish helped me decide what I needed and I had it right away. The quality seems amazing and the board worked great on our river trip! Thanks, Badfish
