Test 2016 - All-round Tour Inflatable: Bic SUP Air Touring 11'0"
The Bic SUP Air Touring 11'0" is light on its feet on the water and can also maintain a sporty, fast pace.

The continuous wide outline ensures fast turning, you only have to go a little way back for the turn and then it goes round. The board feels very light, both on land and on the water, but also slightly softer in choppy water. A successful all-round board that invites cruising in the smallest of spaces with lots of runs, but also runs really fast for a longer tour. The Bic is particularly stable in the water and looks very voluminous with its wide nose and tail. The slightly raised bow goes over the water more than it pushes through it and therefore appears quite smooth-running.

Highlights Two carrying handles; particularly stable; very easy to paddle

Deputy Editor in Chief surf

Stephan Gölnitz comes from Bochum and had Holland as his home windsurfing territory for many years before moving to Munich in 1996 for the job of test editor at surf magazine. The materials engineering graduate worked as a surf instructor on the Ijsselmeer during his studies and competed for several seasons for the Essen sailing team in the Surfbundesliga and the Funboard Cup. He completed a traineeship at surf-Magazin in the test department and since then has actively accompanied almost all tests on the boom and for more than 10 years also as a photographer. Stephan has covered many thousands of test kilometers, mainly on Lake Garda and in Langebaan, but also in Egypt and Tobago. He gets his hands on over 100 new sails and boards every year as his company car. Privately, he prefers to surf with a foil on Lake Walchensee or “unfortunately far too rarely” in the waves. SUP is Stephan's second passion, which he pursued for several years at numerous SUP races. Today, he prefers to paddle on river tours with family or friends - even for several days.
