This inflatable board is much stronger and more durable than a hard board when in use, but when deflated is compact and easily transportable. The board rolls up into a small size that fits conveniently into a car trunk or storage closet.

Supflex inflatable paddle boards offer exceptional stability and performance, attained by their high-pressure capacity and six-inch thickness when fully inflated. The BigSUP is lined on top with EVA crocodile skin, serving as the perfect deck on which to rest, paddle, or even practice yoga.

The product is equipped with 11 handles, making for easy group transport, and three removable fins. In addition, the BigSUP comes with its two of its own efficient, high- pressure double-action hand pumps, gauges, and two inflation valves to match. When connected to the valve, these pumps press air into the board on both the push down and pull up movements of the handle.

The BigSUP requires an inflation value of 10 PSI in order to ride but can be filled to 15 PSI. For your first or next group paddling adventure on the ocean, the BigSUP serves as the perfect tool, offering an opportunity for team building and communication in addition to sheer fun.

The BigSUP 18 retails for $2,490 through the company’s website. Although it does not include the paddles, they can be purchased separately for $55 each.

Aventon Abound SR combines thoughtful design, enhanced security, and smart connectivity

Electric bikes are nothing new at this point, and while there are many styles, few purportedly do-it-all, and even fewer actually offer smart or more advanced features. They tend to do one thing particularly well, like cruising, carrying cargo, or sightseeing -- like city riding -- but the biggest way they push the envelope is by offering that long-range electric power. The Aventon Abound SR, a new do-it-all bike, goes far and beyond anything that's come before it.

For starters, it's the first bike equipped with Aventon's electronic control unit (ACU) which empowers intelligent safety features. That gives you 4G and GPS tracking built-in, plus remote locking, an alarm system, and much more. But also, this top-of-its-class bike is incredibly versatile and is suitable for everything from commutes to tough exercise rides and daily routines. It features a top speed of 20 miles per hour, has a range of up to 60 miles per charge, and can carry a payload of up to 440 pounds. Impressive, indeed. Let's take a closer look and get a little more friendly with it, shall we?

Velotric: One of our favorite e-bike brands is having a huge sale right now

Take a minute to browse through the e-bike category, and you'll see lots of options but not many that I would classify as accessible. As far as technology goes, they can be pretty expensive, especially compared to your everyday traditional pedal bike. So, it makes sense that most people would wait until the holiday season, including Black Friday and Cyber Monday, to get a great deal on a new bike. Prices are at their lowest ever, and it's a great time to save some money. But guess what? You don't have to wait until later in November to save big because Velotric, a premium-quality e-bike maker, is hosting a huge sale right now. You can head over now to take a look, otherwise, we're going to explore some of those Velotric e-bike deals that are available.

What are these "Lower-Than-Black-Friday" Velotric e-bike deals?

Velotric is claiming these deals are "better" than Black Friday, so they better be good, right? Don't worry, they are. For example, you can grab the Velotric Go 1 Ebike for $400 off, while still getting it in a bundle that includes two free gears. That price is currently $1,299, normally $1,700. The Go 1 features a 500-watt motor, supports a maximum load of 440 pounds, and can travel up to 55 miles on a single charge. Pretty impressive. It's also designed to lug cargo, like a picnic basket, day bag, or even camping gear. That's mostly thanks to a lower center of gravity for the frame and hydraulic suspension system.
