The SUP revolution – Self-inflating SipaBoards Air

$590 USD

By Michael

Editor's Rating:

The SipaBoards Air is a premium-quality SUP with a revolutionary innovation: self-inflation right before your eyes. The compressor unit, which doubles as a standard fin box, is built in right where the inflation valve on a normal SUP would be. The rechargeable battery slides in and out, and then with a wave of your hand your board pumps up to the perfect pressure every time. Let us do the hard work for you – while you get ready for your session, stretch out, or simply enjoy the view.

Hi Guys, any chance of an update, the season here is starting to run down :(

Anybody interested in my Sipaboard pledge?
I bought an actually existing SUP and have no further use for the Sip...

It's been a month since the last awesome update--any info about how serial production testing is going?? Thanks

@zaki they have answered that question multiple times there are no refunds

I asked for refund and you are ignoring my request!
Can you respond to this!

Review from Kickstarter

Great update. Glad to see progress. Keep up the good/hard work.

Review from Kickstarter

Guys - Kickstarter is not a pre-order platform. You were never "buying" a product that was ready to ship (or even made yet!). Stop talking about legal action and understand that Sipaboards appears to be doing everything they can to get a high-quality self-inflating paddleboard to market. You would be much more upset if they rushed it out and you received an inferior product of poor quality that didn't last. The lesson here is to not back ANY crowdfunding project if you need the finished product in a timely manner - wait until the product moves to mass production and then buy it direct from them (rather than prepaying through Kickstarter or IG). For the Sipaboard team - glad to see progress is coming along and you are water testing the final product - please keep updates and photos coming regularly - even if there is nothing new to report. Hoping to be paddling my Air in 2018!

Review from Kickstarter

"SipaBoards Team 2-time creator 6 days ago:
update tomorrow or the next day." Still Nothing. We've been robbed. This is painfully obvious now. It's time to seek legal help.

Review from Kickstarter

It is from one disappointment to the next one...

Zaki

Review from Kickstarter

Hello Sipaboard Team
Are you going to deliver the SUP soon?
If not then I would like to refund my perk!

Sebastian

Review from Kickstarter

@Sipaboards: How can we trust you to deliver a product if you even fail to give an update ("tomorrow or the next day")? You can ask for patience and understanding, but if you don't stand to your word even in simplest things like promised updates - nobody will have any more patience or understanding...

SipaBoards Team

Review from Kickstarter

@Sebastian, Paul, Patrick: update tomorrow or the next day. Also see responses to comments under last update. There is good news, things are in motion, and starting to fall into place, but the general message is still the same: we know we are behind schedule (painfully obvious for us, just as it is for you all), we know it was a risky move to redesign our initial production model, we know that you all are the ones bearing the financial responsibility for that decision, we realize acutely how much of an annoyance and obstacle that is for you, and we are working on getting you your board as soon as possible. But that won't happen before we are 110% the board you'll be getting is flawless. We are well aware that there are only so many times you can ask for patience and understanding, but there isn't much more that we can do at this point other than ask exactly that.

Paul

Review from Kickstarter

Can you post regular updates on the production snags? What's the deadline to ship in time for next season?

Patrick

Review from Kickstarter

I gave you almost $3000 for a product that was originally supposed to be delivered around Oct. 2016. It is now well into June 2017 and my patience and faith in you, your company, and this "fantastic award winning product" is wearing thin. The least you can do is be a bit more proactive with your customer service. Awards don't mean crap if you can't deliver on a product. Kinda like a participation trophy. Congrats!! Where are my SUP's and when are they going to be delivered!? Answers required: Yesterday!!

Sebastian G.

Review from Kickstarter

Guys please update us! We can all understand that things do not always work out as planned but any update is better than none and most of us start to worry

Rainer Drexler

Review from Kickstarter

Update us please! The campaign ended successfully on May 2016, and one year later we still have no sups :-(

Sebastian

Review from Kickstarter

I finally got a message from them regarding the paddles. As expected :( "No we will not be shipping paddles early, everything will come at the same time" (aka never)

Colleen Melanie

Review from Kickstarter

I got a good deal on a damaged paddleboard locally and ended up buying it. It will compliment my Sipaboard since the one I got locally is a surf SUP and the Sipa one I am expecting is a much more stable yoga board. It would be really nice for an update, though. It sucks that I had to spend an additional $800 on a board just so I could take advantage of the season. Renting was just getting too expensive. I understand delays but please give your backers an update.

Linda Dierkes

Review from Kickstarter

respectful to get some new information. Thanks.

Linda Dierkes

Review from Kickstarter

It's just amazing how you keep ignoring all of our comments and questions about whats going on! Not only here,also seen in the new posts under your latest "update" which is almost 2 months old now.
It's ridiculous and absurd how you guys keep us waiting and that we still need to ask for updates. You make it really hard to believe you did not waste our money. Once again : it would be great, necessary and

Ulrich Hoecker

Review from Kickstarter

Hello SipaBoard team,
could you please be so kind and send us an update of the project, as well as an expected delivery date? The season for SUPs has already started in Germany and I would like to know if we getting our boards this season. They have been promised for delivery already half a year ago.
Many Thanks, Uli

Sebastian

Review from Kickstarter

I tried to contact them via facebook. They have been quite responsive (telling that everything is fine, they are still in business, selling the "old" sipaboard and having already produces paddles). However, as soon as I asked them if they can send the paddles seperately, they went dark - no more messages...

Rainer Drexler

Review from Kickstarter

Can u post a new update? The last one is from april?

SipaBoards Team

Review from Kickstarter

@Rachelle - thanks :)
@Sebastian - refund is unfortunately not possible. But please bear with us, you will love your Air board.

Rachelle Zimmerman

Review from Kickstarter

Ok Sipa team thanks for the reply, I hope you'll have an update for us soon even though it may not be a pretty one.
For now I wish you the best of luck and patience and I'll keep my fingers crossed and hope to be supping on my Sipa somewhere this year :)

Sebastian

Review from Kickstarter

@SipaBoards: please contact me regarding a refund. I honestly doubt we will ever see a board delivered...

SipaBoards Team

Review from Kickstarter

@Aajjoo - upgrade to Air is unfortunately also not possible at the moment, since some of the issue that are holding us back with Air are the same with Drive
@Paul - will do so and we hope that we will have some more positive news to share soon
@Rachelle - we really cannot tell right now, I'm sorry. we just don't want to give out a time that would have to be readjusted again. As soon as we know the timing clearly, we will let you know.

Rachelle Zimmerman

Review from Kickstarter

Dear team I saw your reaction on Pauls comment that delivery in August is not very likely. Are you still expecting delivery before wintertime then? Just some expectation management because knowing we can't sup this summer is better than constantly hoping and planning and be disappointed afterwards..

Paul

Review from Kickstarter

Can you update us a little more often? Share the issues & plans, progress, etc?

aajjoo

Review from Kickstarter

Hi Team, is it possible to switch sipa air to sipa drive collection?

SipaBoards Team

Review from Kickstarter

Hey guys, unfortunately we cannot report on any substantial positive progress. We are trying to accelerate some arrangements, but find it very difficult to do so.
@Paul - unfortunately it is not very likely that the boards will have been delivered by August.

Rainer Drexler

Review from Kickstarter

@travis that's is a good suggestion!!!

Travis Whitmer

Review from Kickstarter

Any chance since there are delays on getting a bi - weekly update? Even if is just a sentence or two saying what was done during the two weeks/goal for the next two weeks/what or who you're waiting on. Etc. thanks

Sebastian

Review from Kickstarter

I actually don't know how you pay your team without any sales - which is probably also the reason why you don't give any refunds.
And while you promise to improve information flow to your backers... there is nothing, just silence. All this really makes me believe we will never see these boards :(

Paul

Review from Kickstarter

Hey. So, there's arguably 4 months left this season. Is there any chance of getting our boards by August?

SipaBoards Team

Review from Kickstarter

@Rainer - we're sorry, it is not possible to get a board without a compressor, as we actually do not produce boards without a compressor. Our vision of paddleboarding is to reach the next level by removing the most painful part of paddleboarding. It will be more than worth it when you never have to pump up a board again!

Rainer Drexler

Review from Kickstarter

Is it possible to get the boards without the compressor earlier?

SipaBoards Team

Review from Kickstarter

Hey guys! We would like to come up with a date when you can expect your boards and unfortunately still cannot do that as we have still not come to the final production set up. I am really sorry for our unresponsiveness and apologize for it – we have been delaying the update, because we wanted to come up with an exact date for delivery. You will definitely receive your paddle-board, but unfortunately we cannot give you an exact date yet. Please expect a more thorough update very soon. Best, SipaBoards team

Review from Kickstarter

The last time I called they put out an update within a few days -- remember time difference bc they're in Slovakia -- I used google voice (cheap calling rates) -- I'll give them unto may and if nothing has been posted from them or someone else who tries calling I'll try getting in touch with them myself

Dax Wagner

Review from Kickstarter
