Combine fitness with fun! The Simply Fit Board is an effective and easy way to get fit in just minutes a day! The idea behind it is, well, simple.

Even better, the board is compact and lightweight so it’s easy to pack for travel or put away when not in use.

Often, the most basic ideas are the ones that work the best.

Paddle boarding is a fun and growing hobby across the nation. It can be done on the ocean just behind the swell, or on lakes and calm bays. However, what isn’t fun about the hobby is transporting and storing those heavy and cumbersome boards. Thankfully, TOWER inflatable paddle boards can be deflated and rolled up when not in use to easily fit in any car trunk or garage shelf. The military grade PVC plastic is durable enough to carry anybody and its soft construction makes the board impervious to the dings and cracks of regular paddle boards. Mark Cuban saw the potential behind the invention and jumped at the opportunity to partner with the company that’s changing water sports. TOWER boards are great for beginners and pros alike and are without a doubt one of the more awesome products from Shark Tank.
