How it surfs
Two practical features stand out. The Welded Rail Technology creates a mechanically bonded, airtight seam rather than a glued one, which is the joint that historically fails on cheap inflatables. And the patented 3-piece foldable fin box lets the board be rolled instead of folded, cutting pack size by 33% and, per Starboard, drag by 50%.
The rest of the package is sensible rather than exotic: soft EVA handles at nose, centre and tail, wide adjustable bungee tie-downs with metal clips, and extra D-rings for a kayak seat or shoulder strap.
Starboard publishes a €749 package price but no numeric customer rating, and we found no verified editorial score, so the aggregate here is an estimate based on the published specification and the 2025 SUPConnect Gear of the Year award.
Volume & sizing chart
Use the chart below as a starting point. Add half a litre if you are less experienced, subtract half a litre for a looser feel.
| Size | Volume | Rider weight | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10'8" x 33" | All-round, widest of the three | Lighter paddlers and families | Beginner |
| 11'2" x 31+" | Narrower, faster tracking | Mid-weight paddlers | Beginner to intermediate |
| 12'0" x 33" | Longest, most glide and load capacity | Heavier paddlers or extra gear | Beginner to intermediate |

Verdict
The iGO package is a well-specified entry point rather than a performance board: a stiff, light Woven Dropstitch build with welded rails and a genuinely useful roll-not-fold pack system, bundled with an entry-level paddle. It suits families and new paddlers, not anyone chasing speed.
