How to Choose a Stand Up Paddle Board:
-
Purpose Matters: First, decide what you'll mainly use your SUP for.
-
Board Type: Decide between a solid and an inflatable SUP. If storage and portability are your top priorities—say, you're often on the move—an inflatable board is your best bet.
- Size: The board's size determines its stability and how it handles. Newbies will find wider, longer boards more forgiving and stable, while seasoned paddlers might lean towards shorter, narrower boards for better speed and maneuverability.
- Weight Capacity: An ideal board should be able to handle your weight, plus a little extra for any gear you're thinking of bringing along.
- Build Quality: The materials and construction of a SUP affect durability and, therefore, performance. Opt for boards with high-grade materials suited to your usual paddling spots.
- Fin Setup: A board with a versatile fin system gives you the freedom to adjust based on different water conditions, while fixed fins are all about durability and simplicity.
- Budget: Consider your budget, but also consider investing in a quality board. Sometimes, spending a bit more upfront can save you more money in the long run by avoiding frequent replacements.

3. Launching and Standing Up on a Paddle Board
Start by walking into shallow water with your board until it begins to float. Rest your paddle across the board for extra balance and kneel down near the center. Once you’re steady, stand up slowly, placing your feet where your knees are, one at a time. Keep your feet shoulder-width apart, your knees slightly bent, and stand upright. Use the paddle to help with balance as you adjust.
4. Staying Balanced on a SUP Board
To keep your balance on a stand-up paddle board, position your feet parallel, shoulder-width apart, and centered between the board’s edges. Bend your knees a bit to stay stable and maintain a straight back. Look ahead rather than down at your feet. Engage your core and make small adjustments with your feet and weight as needed. Paddling evenly on both sides also helps keep you balanced.
5. Storing a Stand-Up Paddle Board
For proper storage, keep your paddle board in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Indoors or under a cover is best. Avoid placing anything heavy on the board, and try to store it elevated on a rack or support to prevent warping. If storing outdoors, cover it with a UV-resistant bag and secure it against wind damage.
6. Paddling a SUP Board
Stand in the center of the board with your feet shoulder-width apart. Hold the paddle with one hand on the top and the other on the shaft, with the blade angled away from you. To paddle forward, dip the blade into the water and pull it back toward your ankle, switching sides. To turn, make wide strokes on one side. Keep your knees bent, your eyes forward, and always use a life jacket and leash for safety.
