Wasn’t sure where to put this.....SUP boards

HDAV go for it. I've looked at the spec and to be honest if you want an SUP you have absolutely nothing to lose. Just the name "Mistral" adds value. I know it's not the same company as made some of the best windsurfers 40 years ago (I had 2 of their boards), but even if you don't like it, I'd think you will be able to sell it for at least £199 used on ebay.

That’s my thinking the £200 is a pretty safe investment plan is me and a local friend are nothing going to Lidl and trying to get 2 so have a decent chance hopefully and if it’s no good I’ll either return it or sell it might buy a better one at some point and keep this for friends etc as it seem SUP is best enjoyed with a friend or 2


Stil have a mistral long board in my parents garage

Those Lidl ones look fine and for the money how can you go wrong. I bet they will be perfectly fine as well.... Go for it but don't dither as I suspect they will be gone in seconds

Well i got 1! was outside local lidl at 6:55 am and second in the queue.......1 per person and they all went before the queue was done. Hope its worth it!

Providing the weather warms up, I'm sure it will be great

I told my daughter to get down there (seaside town) for 7am and she didnt take my word, she arrived at 7:40am to find the queue went quite a way. When she got to the checkout where they were handing them out (one per customer) she and the 3 people in front of her were unlucky. All gone!

Well due to the awful forecast for the weekend I took the opportunity to get out for the maiden voyage tonight. Did ok didn’t go for a swim for £200 impressed, the board isn’t as stable as other I have used but for calm rivers lakes seems fine, see how I get on on the sea.....
