Since coming onto the SUP scene in 2009, Jimmy Styks has become a popular choice for adventure seekers. With a diverse range of both inflatable SUPs and rigid boards, Jimmy Styks has built a brand that appeals to a wide range of paddlers.
The 2018 Jimmy Styks inflatable paddle board line consists of five models, ranging in size from 10’4″ to 14′ in length. They also have two inflatable surfboards in their lineup, a 6′ shortboard and an 8′ longboard.
All Jimmy Styks inflatable SUPs are backed by a 365-day warranty which covers manufacturing defects. Their 2018 boards also come bundled with everything you need to start paddling — in the box is a nice travel backpack, 3-piece adjustable SUP paddle (either aluminum or carbon fiber), coiled leash, dual-action pump, and iSUP repair kit.
