Review | Kids Stand Up Paddle Board EZ Shopper

EZ Shopper Stand up paddle board for kids review

Stand up paddle boarding or SUP was something we really got in to just after lockdown. What is paddleboarding you may ask? Stand up Paddleboarding (SUPs) is a water sport born from surfing whereby stand up paddle boarders balance on a board floating in water and use a paddle to move through the water. The sport has become increasingly popular over the last couple of years probably because it is a great sport that all can enjoy no matter what your skill level.

AD | I have been or could be if you click on a link in this post compensated via a cash payment, gift or something else of value for writing this post. See our disclosure policy and privacy policy for more details.

As a family of five, with three young children, we love our VWT5 campervan and take any opportunity to get away even for just one night. We recently headed to Anglesey, with a plan to hit the beach and try out our EZ shopper kids stand up paddle board.

Best Paddleboard for kids

We are by no means experts at paddle boarding and with three young children and a lively golden retriever, we need equipment that is straightforward to transport and quick to set up.

So why do we love the EZ shopper Stand up paddleboard for kids?

There are so many reasons why we love the EZ Shopper 9′ paddleboard. Firstly paddle boarding is a great physical work out yet provides an opportunity to relax and unwind surrounded by nature. Furthermore, it is a really sociable activity and we love nothing more than taking the paddle board out with our friends. The kids absolutely love stand up paddle boarding. I am not sure we could leave for a van trip without packing the the wetsuits and lifejackets!

Here are a few reasons why we love the EZ shopper Kids 9′ EZ Paddle Board

SUP EZ Shopper stand up paddle board

SUP complete set in a backpack

The EZ Shopper Inflatable paddle board comes with everything you need to get started out on the water and packs into one bag for ease. The paddleaboard comes complete with a pump, leash, repair kit, removable fin and paddle. The instructions are straightforward to follow too.

Stability

Our three children love spending time out on the water and as they are varying ages, stability is key. The kids SUP is made from high quality PVC which is drop stitched for strength and durability and inflates up to 15psi therefore doesn’t flex under foot. The board is designed to ensure that it is thin (only 4.7″ thick) and rigid enough for the user weight.

A Great all rounder

The paddleabord is designed for kids but is also great for adults upto 60kg. The aluminium paddle is light weight and adjustable for all heights also meaning that it is great for sitting, kneeling and standing. It is the smallest of the EZ Board family too so it is easier to carry down the beach and also easier for a child to carry!

EZ Shopper Stand Up Paddleboard Cost?

EZ Shopper is a UK based company, and at £299 the SUP offers great value for money, and is currently on offer at £199.99.

What else is there to know about the EZ Shopper SUP?

I loved the little added extras. There is an action cam / GoPro mounting point and kayak seat attachment point fitted as standard! The kayak seat is available to purchase separately making this a really versatile kit.

Final thoughts on the EZ Shopper stand up paddlebaord for kids

Keeping in mind there is a 60kg weight limit – this paddleboard is a wonderful all rounder, great for the a day at the river or on the beach, easy to carry and currently on offer at £199.99 offers great value for money. Literally endless hours of fun in a backpack!!

The gram is such a funny thing. I have made some a The gram is such a funny thing. I have made some absolutely wonderful friendships over the years. Beautiful friends that are just my kind of people. Absolute sunshine.

On our recent girls van trip…. 

Me “girls just make sure I don’t lose my key - I always seem to misplace it.”

Time to say our goodbyes.. 
Girls “bye for now” - waving as they get in their vans.

Me. “Girls - I’ve lost my key”

One hour of searching and complete van emptying commences. 
 
I am that friend 🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️

Moral of the story. Find your tribe 😆

Anyone else that kind of friend?

Not insta perfect at all - I’m an absolute drown Not insta perfect at all - I’m an absolute drowned rat, spent most of the hour under the water, or trying to balance on the surf board on my knees or trying not to take the dog out who insisted on swimming in the path of all the novice surfers 😆

A brilliant weekend celebrating my beautiful friend’s surprise 40th in Scarborough with all the people who love her. What weekends are made for ! 🏄‍♀️ 🍹 

So hands up if you can surf because I think need a few more lessons 🤔 🤣

We only recently got into paddleboarding and absolutely love everything about it …. Including the fact that the kit all fits in a backpack! 

This is important when you have three kids, a dog, twenty buckets and spades, more buckets full of sea glass and shells, snacks, more snacks, life jackets, wetsuits and beach towels, and a SUP all needing to get down to the beach 😂

We tried out the @ezshopperuk stand up paddleboard in Anglesey and absolutely loved it. I’ve written a review on my blog (link in stories). Can’t wait to get back out on the sea. 

Who else loves a paddleboard ?🙋🏼‍♀️

Thank you 🙏🏻 Thank you so much for all you Thank you 🙏🏻 

Thank you so much for all your comments on my post last night, I’m still working through them but they are all absolute gold!!!!

Honestly I was literally crying with laughter at some of the funniest stories I have read in a long time -  you are all absolutely brilliant.

Vanlife (and travel) is not always insta perfect. It isn’t all sunshine and sunsets. Vanlife is about enjoying the journey as much as the destination, and all those little bits in between too. As I said last night, our mishaps and not so perfect trips for whatever reason - they are the memories I genuinely look back on with a smile (apart from the time our awning succumbed to a storm in Edinburgh and the campsite rang us whilst we were visiting Edinburgh Castle, to say ALL of our belongings were all over the field in the rain 😆) 

Reading your comments last night - if you manage to navigate a journey of vomit, Illnesses, emptied shelves, and missed ferries… well - you are winning at life 😆

Please carry on sharing more of your vanlife reality. Those real vanlife experiences. Mostly because your mishaps and stories make me howl 🤣

So I’m bringing you #therealitiesofvanlife 

Can’t wait for a giggle. Keep the chaos and laughter alive 🙂

Vanlife reality 🌊 I think this picture was ta Vanlife reality 🌊 

I think this picture was taken the same day that we realised we forgot to pack most of the parts for the camping stove, the day my son new best and wandered off and got stuck in some kind of muddy sand, and the the day the doggo snapped the tie-up rope trying to get to a huge lovable St Bernard.🤣

Why am I telling you this? Most people share the highlights, the bits they want to remember, but there is ALWAYS more to that perfect picture. 

In fairness there is ALWAYS a bit of chaos to our vanlife story and travel….. it wouldn’t be us without a story of a missed ferry, a two hour journey that turns into 10 hours or a forgotten packing cube. And even those bits I genuinely love to remember 😆

So now your turn. Do spill your #vanlifereality stories 🙂 I’m ready for a giggle.

This my friends.. is the face of freedom. No study This my friends.. is the face of freedom. No study. No work. Just one big beautiful beach a campervan and my family.

Our first week away in the campervan was amazing. Anglesey is one of our favourite places to visit. … and we got to spend time with our beautiful friends too. 

I packed fifty million jumpers, five pairs of dungarees, coats… walking boots and loads of fleeces (hello UK weather), and actually lived in my sandals and even applied suncream. Winner! 

How was half term for you? What did you get up to?

📍 COL D'IBARDIN Biarritz region. We loved it h 📍 COL D'IBARDIN
Biarritz region.

We loved it here - a gorgeous campsite that appeared popular with families in the heart of the Basque country and a short drive from the beaches. 

With streams under small stone bridges, mountain views peeking through the magnificent oak trees that line the campsite, you will find a few open, some partly shaded and shaded pitches. There is a swimming pool, snack bar, pizzeria and restaurant, children’s play area and shop. There are also alternative accommodation rentals here too.

I absolutely loved everything about this campsite. The campsite is situated between the coast and the mountain range and when we stayed we found it to be charming, friendly and laid back. I’ll pop some more pictures on my stories for you ❤️

Another campsite to save for when you are planning your French road trip! 

(Some of the campsites mentioned were part of a previous collaboration with @campandcaravan and Glisten camping but remain our firm favourites and hope that they help you to plan your holiday)

This one is a more lovely site in south Brittany, in the heart of the Gulf of Morbihan, and another one of our favourites.

There was so much to do for the children on-site. It has a brilliant pool complex, generous size pitches, and plenty of activities available including pony rides, fishing, archery, and a treetop adventure park.

We loved visiting nearby Auray too about 6 ish miles away. 

More pics in my stories for you. Another one to save.
