I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Things we like

Choose the Thurso Surf electric pump if you need an electric pump that is lightweight and compact enough to fit straight into your stand-up paddleboard bag. The Thurso Surf manual pump weighs 2.6 pounds, the same as this item, but it comes in a considerably more compact container. Going electric with your paddleboard gear is the best way to reduce space in your SUP bag.
Inflation did quickly: despite its compact size, the Thurso Surf electric pump inflates your surfboard nearly as soon as many other electric pumps on the market. In about 6 minutes, it increased the Thurso Surf Water walker 126 to its maximum capacity. Despite only having one stage, it provides performance comparable to that of pumps with two locations.
The digital PSI reader isn't a significant feature, but it does make it easy to track and monitor the progress of your iSUP's inflation. The digital PSI screen displays the readings on the reader. Compared to dials made of glass, they are also more resistant to breaking and other forms of damage. Even though you should still handle your electric pump with care, you will have a lower risk of causing damage to the digital screen than the other dials and monitors.

Things we don't like

The lack of a deflation nozzle makes it much simpler to deflate your paddle board using an electric pump, even though you can do it by hand. Even though this electric pump is noticeably more compact and utilizes only the most fundamental components, we would still want to see Thurso Surf produce an electric pump that can inflate and deflate the surfboard.
15 PSI Limit: You will be able to inflate any Thurso Surf iSUP and a good number of other inflatable paddle boards available on the market when the pressure is set to 15 PSI. However, the Thurso Surf pump is not powerful enough to adequately inflate the larger inflatable SUPs.
