What are the benefits of a Paddle Board (SUP)?
- A paddle board is suitable for every person, at any age. After a few hours of practice, a person feels already comfortable on the board, learns to paddle, keep good balance and keep a straight course (How to paddle with a Paddle Board – SUP).
- Paddle board allows you to surf without any prior experience (How to surf with Paddle Board).
- Surfers can catch, unlike traditional surfing, a series of waves. Thus, surfing time is significantly extended.
- Surfing is quite possible and brings great pleasure even in small waves, which are most often found in inland seas, such as the Black Sea.
- If surfing is not your thing, you can use the Paddle Board for trips, including long distances. Most people do just that (Choosing a Paddle Board – SUP).
- SUP is very popular with women too, because they have a lower center of gravity and learn to keep balance and steer more easily and quickly.
- SUP builds the body well because all muscles are loaded, including those of the legs. In addition to just for fun, SUP is used for fitness and developing motor skills.
- From Paddle Board to Wind Surf there is only one step! SUP can be used as a training tool because the board is larger and more stable than that of a wind surfboard and can also be paddled in the absence of wind.
