The ones that take the effort out of getting ready.
These are the Italian-made Bravo electric pumps (from Scoprega, over 40 years building inflators for watersports) — the pros and rental companies trust. We stock 12 V models that run off the car and rechargeable battery versions you can carry anywhere. All reach the full 20 PSI our premium SUP boards need, include sand filters and auto-stop, and come with the adapters that actually fit everything we sell.
Plug into the cigarette lighter or connect straight to the battery with alligator clips. These units fill a SUP board to 15–20 PSI in 8–12 minutes and inflate an inflatable kayak even faster. They feature digital displays, auto-stop at the exact pressure you set, quiet operation, cool-running motors, and built-in sand filters so beach grit doesn’t kill the pump. We stock the Bravo BTP series because they keep going — no overheating, no weak spots, even when inflating boards back-to-back.
Charge at home overnight and you’re free from cables. The Bravo BP battery models deliver 20–30 minutes of runtime per charge (enough for 2–3 SUPs or a kayak plus towables) and still push the full 20 PSI without dropping performance. Same digital gauge, same auto-stop, same sand filter — but portable enough to take to a remote beach or the middle of a lake. Light enough to throw in a board backpack.
Both pump types include a complete adapter kit (bayonet, push-fit, Boston, HR, Clic) and a long hose so you’re not wrestling the pump around the car.
Car always close → 12 V electric
Beach launch, island camping, or no power socket → rechargeable battery electric
Pick the pump that matches how you actually get to the water. You’ll be paddling while everyone else is still pumping by hand.
