How did you attach the GCI stadium seat to the D-Rings?

That was helpful!!

So after two years is the recharable still working ? Amazon reviews show some issues.

i've had one for several years, and what's failed on mine is the seal on the piston on the high pressure pump. Have you encountered this? I've been trying to fine a replacement part (the rubber has broken down) but Outdoormaster aren't being helpful (and I'm outside warranty)

Thanks for the info. I also got an avapow 4000A jump starter battery but when I connected the shark pump, I get a U-H error. Should the power be less on the avapow for it to work?

Very informative, just got vinyl solid/soft(webbing) dinghy handles for the additional four attachment points, have to add d-rings to the webbing ones, now i know I will add cushion pocket to at least one of the two cheap type that came with the cheap kayak, but won't be used other than a towable, as the cheap deal kayak($100.can) was just the cheapest option for seats and paddles to use with the far preferable (14psi)SUP ($236.can) that now thanks to your information, will be more safe and comfortable than heavier (0.7psi)kayak, good advising, for my near future industrial sewing(adding d-rings to glue-on patches, and additional height pocket for soft fold up seats) of course gonna glue the patches to my high-end home-depot discount SUP. I'm dumb, but I'm not a dweeb!

Not sure how this came into my feed but glad it did. Been thinking about getting the first one from HALA as at this point I am probably 85% sitting. I am also very large so really glad you added that into this video. I don't mind just sitting on the board but yes I am always wet and yes my back starts to hurt some but that is when I just lay back for a bit or stand or kneel. Never thought of these others and my only question would have been how much are they in the way when switching positions. Awesome job and thanks for saving me the money on one that sounds like I would have hated.

How can a ten inch seat be any less stable than me standing up

gonna give the irocker pump a go.

Does anyone have the height of the Tundra 65 with the Large Badger Wheel set vs No Wheels. Trying to figure out if the cooler with wheels will fit int he bed of the truck with a hard bed cover.

What width should your board be for a seat? Woukd 28 inch be to narrow? 30" be enough or is 32" yhe way to go?

I just wanted to let you know that Walmart sells a cheaper $20 version of the stadium seats, all the first 3 varieties, actually. The issue is that it has a bar on the top of the seat back, so it'll probably end up hurting after a while is my guess.

Video 1: 1 psi, video 2: 3psi, ..... Video 8: 15psi 😂😂😂

Solved my problem, thank you

I don't own one, but couldn't you just use a low beach chair. They are basically what you called a low stadium seat. They are like 10. I might try using mine in my kayak

Do you happen to know the operating voltage for the battery powered inflator. Your photo indicated they use 10 batteries. Based on that it's not a 12v system but a 18v system 5S2P This potentially can offer 200 plus watts as opposed to the 12v car plug system as it is limited to 12a or 144W.

Really enjoyable videos! I wanted to add another seating alternative I used to use in my Meyers Sportspal Canoe, just a folding blade footed lawn chair. Similar to a Larry Chair but a bit higher seating. So, with my new inflatable SUP, I did order its available kayak seat but decided to buy a Pooya Folding Camping Chair from Wayfair (cheaper than a kayak seat and free shipping). It is rated to 265 lbs. and I have yet to receive it but I think it'll work great. So, for someone who wants to fish and paddle primarily standing but wants to sit down to re-tie or eat lunch or fish sitting, this is a good and light alternative to add to, say, a cooler seat. This one weighs 6 lbs. and can be strapped to a SUP just like any other. I'm here in Texas, will let you know how it works out.

Such a great video and explanation. Thank you from down here in Australia

Is this doable if I don't have side rings that far back on my SUP? if I use the simpler stadium seat, I can just sit in it on my board and it probably won't slide around on the surface will it ?

Truly one of the best videos in this category that I've seen. Informative, right balance/level of detail and great explanation. Someone who really knows what they're doing. You just got a new subscriber. I'm probably going to go with the Costco Body Glove Performer iSUP and the RA220 perfectly raised seat. Want the versatility to somewhat comfortably use for fishing as well.

Great video! Thank you. ❤

A beach seat with the canvas mat works great. Your but is directy on the board. Buy a board with lots of tie downs

🥇Thanks! Straight-forward, no fluff, hands-on vid. Wanted Yeti 160 + Badger but you answered primary concern. Cooler won’t sit level. That’s a huge detractor.

Sea Eagle sells only one stage pumps. They use to sell two stage. Customer service didn't know why they stop selling it. So I looked else where because I thought one stage pumps would take longer and you proved it. Thank you.

Going to buy this pump good to be able to see the inside of the pump. That clear hose must lead to the air pressure sensor.

What if my iSUP doesn’t have Drings?

Can the shark 2 of 20 psi inflate an inflatable fishing kayak

Is it a big deal to not strap the seat down? Will it shift around when paddling if not strapped?

My wife and her father owned a SUP business for a long time, and they always told me the Shark lasted longer than the others, if that helps anyone.

Great video. Just what I was looking for. What do you do about the stadium seat hook on the bottom?

So which one is the best you said a 2 stage which I believe is the silver one and is cheaper is that the best one?

Great video thank you

Thx a mil. Great presentation, great comparison. I'm the example of the buyer who got tempted by soft chair being included in the package. The truth is, I don't use it at all. Neither do my daughters, as the chair turns SUP into one person board rather then 2 ppl. Wish I saw your video before. Great work mate!

Went for a coffee and back and it was still going

Should I roll or for my inflatable paddle board?

Holy crap, thank you! I am a taller and heavier guy and almost bought one of those cheap seats you talked about 1st. I’m for sure going to give the third chair a try!

This helped me to pick a racket. I'm a beginner, just got a Gamma Quest for $38. Seems to be light enough and the grip feels good too. Does anyone else use one, what was it like for you?

I bought the same pump and medium battery and it’s putting to many volts out at 75% charged and the pump is erroring out.. anyone have a way to fix this??

Hear me out. You buy a zip close mattress cover to sleep in as a sort of a sleeping bag. You find out that it's almost air tight but it has a slow leak. You want to buy an air pump to keep fresh air flowing in to your make shift sleeping bag. You also don't want the air pump to be running all night and you aren't able to sleep. So you decide to find an air pump that has a scheduled timer for every 15 minutes or so. What do you buy?

I've had this pump for 4 years and it inexplicably stopped working this weekend. You're video was the solution to the problem. Many thanks!!!

Man this was a really great and informative video. Thanks!

I love the inclusion of style points! Lol You answered qustions i didnt even know i had yet. Just got my boad today and super excited to paddle the kids around on it!

I'm wondering why cars still use those adapters when No one use cigarette lighters in there anymore.

150$ for a seat? Thats how much i paid for my whole paddle with accesories. Greetings from Poland, we very poor.

Awesome video. Thank You

Very clear and well explained. Thanks!

Where can I get the straps to attach the raised kayak seat to the D-rings?

Really great video. Thanks for taking the time to describe the pros and cons of each one.

Great video, thank you
