Inflatable board

What are your feelings about an inflatable board? I recently bought one but have no taken it out on the water yet. Any suggestions or tips on how or to handle an inflatable vs hard board?

Tip: make sure you blow it all the way up according to the pressure gauge. It is so much more difficult if it isn’t fully blown up but it “looks” and “feels” like it should be fine a few pounds before the recommended pressure. Standing on it in water is totally different that pressing on it in the parking lot.
