Not quite cheap, but still worth every franc.
Compared to other SUPs on the beach, you can clearly see the better workmanship. On the way to the beach, you would probably already see this in the bag, which can also be pulled with the wheels or carried on the back as a backpack.
On the water, the Fly Air Premium's quality is evident in comparison. It is very stable and above all stiff. We sometimes load it with 150kg and it doesn't look like other cucumbers with 80kg.
A nice toy on flat water... Of course, it doesn't glide as well as a touring board. But smaller waves on the lake already indicate that even more fun will be possible on the sea...

An inexpensive SUP!
A few months passed before I bought this SUP. I was initially interested in different boards, mainly for touring.
Through a chat and several conversations with experienced SUP'ers I decided in favour of the Fanatic Fly Air Premium 10'8'', although I am no longer a beginner.
Yes, a RAY AIR PREMIUM 12'6" would certainly be better suited for longer distances and tours and also has better gliding characteristics.
Which is why I have now bought the FLY AIR PREMIUM 10'8":
- due to the size of 10'8" there is still enough glide available
- Small to medium sized waves can be handled easily without wet feet
- Suitable for bad weather
- very good stability
- also suitable for 2 people
- For any kind of water, from white water
- Windsurf option
- weight
- the length was also decisive, as an iSUP should be stored slightly inflated when not in use for a long time
- great for practising tricks
I also bought the following:
