Product description

Stand Up Paddle, SUP, for short, can be briefly explained as standing on a board while moving forward with the help of a paddle with a longer shaft.

The main reason that SUP has become so popular is its versatility. Surfing big waves, or the smallest. Paddling on flat water to improve your fitness and strengthen muscles, or participate in marathon races. Paddle flowing water and small rapids. Most see SUP as a positive alternative to get out on the water, keep in shape and discover new areas and along the coastline.

Almost everyone can paddle a SUP-boang position on the board for the first time. But surprisingly quickly, you have found the balance ard. Sure, it can feel a bit wobbly when you move up from kneeling to standind feel comfortable with your new vehicle.

Level of difficulty

No experience required. We welcome beginners as well as experienced. You need to be able to swim.

Courses will be held during the hold season, please call for more detalis.
