The 10 Best Electric Pumps For SUPs

The Tower Premium (about $139) is perfect for stashing in your trunk year-round, as you can just plug it in to the car's cigarette lighter when you're ready to put it to use. It cuts off at 25 PSI, so there's no need to worry about over-inflating, and possibly damaging, your board.

There's a tiny LCD screen on the Nalanda Quick-Fill (around $99) that makes it incredibly easy to set the desired pressure level. It's a powerful machine, too, as it's able to inflate your craft in about ten minutes or so, giving you more time to enjoy the water.

The Vilano Smart (appx. $49) is a tiny thing, about the size of a large iron. Nevertheless, it can bring your board up to 16 PSI in a hurry, and, since the power cord is nearly ten feet long, you'll have plenty of room to maneuver while you're filling it up.

Feel free to use the SeaMax SUP20D (around $110) right there on the beach, as it has a built-in sand filter that will keep grains out of the motor. It also is equipped with a one-way diaphragm valve to ensure that it works quickly without damaging any of the internal components.

While the Driftsun Bravo (about $219) can get you out on the water in just a few minutes, it's when you're done for the day that it really shines. It can deflate your board in as little as 120 seconds, allowing you to get back home quickly to rest your tired muscles.

There's nothing more frustrating than struggling with a tube that won't cooperate, which is why the kink-free hose on the AquaGlide Turbo (about $160) is such a welcome feature. It lets you work from a variety of angles without having to constantly stop to detangle yourself.

You won't need to spend much time digging through the trunk to find the Airhead Velocity (around $139), as its bright green-and-blue color helps it stand out among all your other stuff. It comes with a storage bag, so once you locate it, you'll have all its accessories right there, too.

The Scoprega Bravo (about $329) can put out an impressive 125 liters of air per minute, reducing the amount of time you have to spend watching your gear expand. It also does a good job of inflating mattresses, making it smart to have around on the next camping trip.

The SeaMax SUP20S (about $90) has been constructed using marine-grade ABS plastic and nylon, so it can handle the rigors of an aquatic environment. It's also designed to withstand a wide range of operating temperatures, reducing the risk of it overheating at an inopportune moment.

The Sevylor Sport (about $34) is a no-nonsense, simple-to-use option that's perfect for anyone who wants to get out on the waves with as little fuss as possible. It makes short work of inner tubes and kiddie pools, as well, ensuring you're ready for anything summer throws at you.
