Reviews

IM IN LOVE

"First of all our sales rep at the Bote store was super helpful and knowledgeable. He helped me pick out the perfect board and I absolutely love it. Easy to use for a beginner and I’ve been using it every weekend since. Thanks so much Bote!"

— Kelly T. (5/5)

My new favorite paddle board!

"This board is tough and stable! Great quality!"

— Jon-Paul C. (5/5)

Sweet!

"High quality, lightweight, stable and moves through the water like a hot knife through butter. A little harder to fully inflate than I anticipated but the next purchase will probably be an AeroPump."

— Cheryl M. (5/5)

HD Aero

"Love my new paddle board and the upgrade to 2 magnepods!"

HD Aero 11′6″ Native Bombardier Inflatable Paddle Board

"Love the functionality of this board. Easy to inflate, light weight and lots of options of accessories. Very colorful."

— Aime H. (5/5)

Sturdy For My Weight

"This is a sturdy and well made board. Waited to review until I used it for the Summer, but I love it. It's convenient to transport and inflate. I think the most difficult part for me is getting the fin out of the slot after I'm done. It takes some force, but at least I don't worry about losing it. I bought this board initially as a 300 pound person, and I have never felt like I was too much for it. It has taken some falls from me for sure. Great board."

— Meagan (5/5)

Top Tier Across The Board!!!

"I can't leave a proper review unless I mention the top tier service by Walker aka Walker Texas Ranger, the layout of the store and what inventory was on display on top of crazy good quality. This is like a nicer Yeti brand along with a great product with great service and super user friendly storefront. Bugslinger HD Inflatable 11'6'' is the weapon of choice so far and look forward to making some memories!"

— Jason M. (5/5)

Cute Board!

"Awesome board for me and my huskies. Can’t thank the customer service rep enough for working with me to place my order and have it shipped to Hawaii with ease. Looking forward to getting more accessories to make inflating and carrying a little easier since I’m only 5’1”"

— Sayra H. (5/5)

Bote, gets it!!

"Love it 😍 Bote brand does such an amazing job with the matching gear and magnet feature on the board! Look sharp on the water!!"

— Armando G. (5/5)

AMAZING!

"Amazing board! I use it for fishing and it is perfect. I have 3 Bote boards and the quality, look, and performance is amazing! The customer service is also top-of-the-line! This board is a stable platform for fishing or just cruising with another person on it. Highly recommend!"

— George G. (5/5)

Care + Storage
  1. Rinse off with clean water after each use. Rinsing off residue, debris, and salt water from your Aero will ensure it stays looking new for years to come. A damp cloth or Magic Eraser will also safely remove any dirt or scuffs that may have occurred while in use. 
  2. Store in a cool, dry place. When storing your Aero rolled, let it dry completely before rolling back into the bag. Always store your Aero in a cool, dry place or a shady area out of reach of direct sunlight, to avoid weakening or fading of colors.
  3. Keep out of direct sunlight when not in use. Over time, the sun can both weaken the material and seams and increases the pressure beyond its design limits. If your Aero is out of the water and not in use, move it to a shady place out of direct sunlight.
  4. Reduce PSI when not in use. If you must leave your Aero out of the water and in direct sunlight or choose to store it partially inflated, reduce pressure until the board is compressible by hand.
