Stand up paddle is a unique sport. Participants use a paddle and large stable board and can paddle in any water location from the open ocean out to sea, coastal shore to far inland on dams, lakes, rivers and canals.
SUP is not a surfing sport nor is it a canoe or surf ski sport. It’s a melding of all, with its own specialised equipment and skill and technique.
Its versatility of locations, minimal equipment needs, amazing fitness benefits and the ability for the whole family to participant make it one of the fastest growing sports in the world today.
