iROCKER customer service is top tier! They responded so quickly to an issue I had with one of their bags for my SUP. Without hesitation, they were happy to send me a replacement bag at no cost. I did provide a photo for proof of my issue without them asking. Within 24 hours I received a tracking number that it had shipped. Kurstine from iROCKER Customer Experience Team even took the time to email me my order number for my new bag and took the time to thank me for being a part of iROCKER! We've gotten so many compliments on our SUP's and the quality and detail in these SUP's is definitely money well spent. Thanks again Kurstine and iROCKER. Keep ROCKin'!
Dangerous Seam Separation on the Water - iRocker offered a coupon
I paid $1,379 before tax for a 2021 BLACKFIN Model X, expecting a premium paddleboard to last. After roughly five years, a structural side seam opened while I was on calm Lake Erie. The board had been inflated to 15 PSI and used normally. I heard air escaping and saw bubbles while still on the water—a potentially serious safety failure.
iROCKER acknowledged that a board with an opened seam may no longer be safe and said they cannot guarantee its integrity, yet denied any replacement because the three-year warranty had expired. Their proposed resolution was a non-stackable discount worth no more than $75 toward buying another board. They also mentioned local or YouTube repairs while simultaneously saying they could not guarantee the board’s safety.
My serial number is outside the published 2022 BLACKFIN recall ranges, but the failure itself—seam separation—is materially similar to the hazard involved in that recall. For an expensive product whose structural failure could leave someone stranded in the water, I expected more than a strict warranty cutoff and a small sales coupon.
I cannot recommend iROCKER or BLACKFIN based on the product’s durability or the company’s response to a serious safety-related failure.
I ordered the Blackfin XL 7.0 and love it! I am new to paddleboarding and love to take it to the beach. The paddle I recieved with my order was showing some wear only after 4 outings. The middle part was losing the epoxy and causing g torque and concern the paddle would break. I reached out to customer service and they promptly got back to me and are sending a replacement. I am very happy with the product and support. I can't recommend enough irocker and the help they brought me so quickly.
Catastrophic seam failure after only 15-20 uses and no goodwill supported my iROCKER SUP board in…
I purchased my iROCKER SUP board in August 2021 and used it only approximately 15-20 times in total, averaging just 3-4 outings per year.
The board was always carefully maintained, properly stored, and never exposed to misuse or excessive pressure. On the day of the incident, it was inflated to approximately 1 bar, which is the minimum recommended operating pressure.
After a normal session on the lake, while I was drying the board and preparing to deflate it, the board suddenly ruptured along a seam and effectively exploded without any impact or apparent cause.
What concerns me most is the safety aspect. Several children were standing nearby when the rupture occurred. Thankfully, nobody was injured, but the situation could easily have resulted in a serious accident.
I contacted iROCKER and provided photographs, proof of purchase, and a detailed description of the incident. While the company responded promptly and professionally, my claim was ultimately denied because the warranty had expired.
What I find disappointing is not merely the warranty decision itself, but the apparent lack of consideration for the extremely low usage of the board and the nature of the failure. A premium SUP board that has been used only 15-20 times would reasonably be expected to last significantly longer than five years.
Additionally, iROCKER advised that the board should not be repaired because its structural integrity can no longer be guaranteed. As a result, the board is effectively unusable despite having seen very limited use.
My overall experience with the board prior to the failure was positive, but based on this incident and the lack of any goodwill gesture, I cannot recommend the product with confidence.
I encourage potential buyers to carefully consider product longevity and after-sales support when making their purchase decision.
I had a truly great experience with iROCKER’s customer support. Kurstine responded very quickly to every message I sent and handled my case with real professionalism. She didn’t just give standard answers — she actually did research, checked repair options, and explained everything clearly so I could make the right decision.Her communication was warm, friendly, and genuinely helpful. She made the whole process easy, and I felt that she really cared about solving my problem. The birthday message and discount were an unexpected and thoughtful touch that made my day.Overall, Kurstine exceeded my expectations. Fast replies, professional attitude, and real effort — exactly what great customer support should be. Highly recommended
The Customer Experience Team works hard to make sure that any issues you have will be quickly dealt with in the way that maximizes customer satisfaction.
After deciding that the All Around11’ 8.0 was the right board for me, I used Apple Pay. Instead of changing the shipping address to where I was staying, I left it as my billing address. My order went in after iRocker was closed for the day, so I immediately sent an email asking them to change the shipping address. I got an initial response from Kurstine from the Customer Experience Team first thing in the morning which was that the warehouse automatically starts filling the order and the shipping address is difficult to change. However, Kurstine made some calls and within an hour was able to report back that she caught the order in time and that my board would be
shipped to the address I wanted.
If the board is as good as the Customer Experience Team, I’m going to be very happy.
Great service and fast shipping! I ordered a blackfin paddleboard plus accessories and noticed after I clicked "pay" that it had auto populated an old address in the shipping... After I reached out about the problem, Kurstine was quick to assure me the order was updated to my current address and it still arrived within 2 days. Very impressed, and cant wait to pump up the board and get it on the water!
I purchased an iROCKER paddle board and was disappointed with both the initial quality control and how the company handled the issue.
I opened the board immediately after receiving it and found that the paddle did not connect properly. This was an issue that should have been caught during basic quality control before the product was shipped. I contacted iROCKER right away on a Thursday.
I was told they responded within 48 hours, but I did not actually receive a response until the following Monday. More importantly, there was no acknowledgment or apology for the defective component. I was told the correct replacement paddle was out of stock and that there was no clear timeframe for when it would be available. They offered a different three-piece paddle instead, but it would not fit properly in the backpack that came with my board. I chose to wait for the correct paddle.
I then went over a month without hearing anything from the company and had to contact them again for an update. I was eventually told the correct paddle would not be available until the following year.
At that point, I asked to return the board. Initially, I was told that would not be a problem. When I asked what my refund would be and whether I would have to pay return shipping, I was then told it was not eligible for return. After going back and forth, I ultimately decided to accept the incorrect replacement paddle rather than continue dealing with the situation.
My biggest issue isn’t simply that a component was defective. Manufacturing defects happen. It’s the lack of communication, inconsistent information about my options, and lack of willingness to provide a reasonable solution.
I purchased from iROCKER expecting better quality and customer service, especially considering their boards are priced at a premium compared with many alternatives. Instead, I spent much of the paddleboarding season waiting for a basic component that should have been correct when the board arrived.
I would strongly recommend potential buyers research iROCKER’s quality control and customer service experience before purchasing. My experience has made me hesitant to purchase from this company again.
My experience with IROCKER on my warranty claim was top notch. Brittany was super efficient - compassionate and explained everything in detail. She responded to me in a timely manner and was awesome in general to deal with. I had my new board within a week. Thanks Brittany for being a stellar human being to deal with.
Brittany is the BEST!!!
Had an issue with USPS delivering to the wrong address.
She took care of the situation, and we are very impressed with the quality of the IRocker products :)
I had a problem with an item I purchased and Brittany was able to assist me in getting the product replaced in a timely fashion! She was fantastic and even answered some other questions I had about other products.
So far I’ve had nothing but a positive experience. Placed an order for a Blackfin XL and realized right away I had used an old shipping address. I responded to my order confirmation email explaining my mishap, and Kurstine was able to get the address change done before the board left the warehouse. It’s the little extra effort like this that will keep us coming back. I’m already pleased and haven’t even tried the product yet.
I've hardly used my board since I bought it 5 years ago, finally get it out for the first time in 2 years and all the glue has some away where the d rings attach. I did some research and there is a known issue but apparently my board is 301 units short of the recall, which is ridiculous. I wrote to them enclosing photos and all they could say is that it is sun and water related even though I've only used it a max of 10 times, probably not even that - the board still looks brand new apart from the glue problems.
Cant speak for the products as I dont have them yet, nor do I even know how to jidge them, but the customer service from Brittany was fantastic. I ordered some SUPs and needed them delivered quickly, Brittany did everything in her power to get them out the door and on the wat a quickly as possible, while also keeping me informed at each step.
Long time iRocker customer here. We started several years ago with a couple of their SUPs. Many, many paddles later they are still like new.
We bought a boat and now have a couple of inflatable relaxing products from them. We have found that the cost-to-feature ratio is equal or better than others in the market, and the quality of these newer iRocker products seems to be just as good as our old SUPs.
My only [very minor] complaint is that sometimes their website shows products or features that are no longer available, or are part of a future plan but not available yet. When I have sent in questions to the company, the response comes quickly, and sometimes that has also provided alternative options.
I have not had to contact them about any problems with my products (because there haven't been any), but based on my other contacts with the company I feel as if it would be handled pretty well.
Highly recommend iRocker and their products!
iRocker Customer Service Is As Wonderful As Their Products
I already have one iRocker paddle board, and with my cheap starter-SUP wearing out, I knew I wanted to replace it with another iRocker. But WHICH ONE? I did a comparison on the website (very handy tool!) and read through their article about deciding between the very two boards I was considering. But I still couldn't decide. So I reached out to iRocker through their website for a little more advice. I heard back from Kurstine in less than 24 hours, and we emailed back and forth until I finally made my choice. I was very impressed with the advice and individual attention I received and the enthusiasm for the products. I've placed my order and can't wait for it to arrive and take it out on the lake. Thank you, iRocker team!
