How to make an airbed into a stand up paddle board
There's a SUP under that!
Well, if you have then you're not the only one! Bear Grylls' latest endorsement is for an inflatable stand up paddle board from Coreban, which doubles as a tent, complete with it's own airbed! Well, the board IS the airbed, once you let out a little air that is. The concept is that adventure paddlers can go on overnight trips, taking only the bare essentials. We'll let Coreban explain...
"The Ultimate Adventure Tent is a one-person tent system that works with the accompanying Scout inflatable paddleboard. The three ends of the Y-shaped pole system secure into sleeves located on the nose and either side of the rear. The poles support a mesh-doored tent structure, with the board serving as both floor and integrated inflatable mattress. So after a day on the water, you can pitch your tent in a couple minutes, let out a little air in the paddleboard, and enjoy a comfortable night on the shore."
Good concept? Or just another idea that will be talked about in years to come as 'remember that tent thing that Coreban made?' Check it out on Coreban's website for more details.
