Test: JP-Australia RivAir 9'6" 2014
One year of testing, one year on the rivers of the Alps and the JP-Australia RivAir has not a scratch on it.
iSUP is not durable? We can't say that it is. The RivAir in particular was literally tortured over hill and dale and couldn't be broken.
Conclusion The JP is the perfect whitewater device: stable, easy to turn and, thanks to the 6-inch rails, insensitive to top water. And as befits iSUPs, the river specialist is not only robust but also durable. Compared to the Corran, it is a little sportier to ride, with a real surf feeling. Thanks to the fifth centre fin that can be used, directional stability is better in flat water.
