There is something for everyone in stand-up paddle boarding. SUP offers you huge positive emotions, the opportunity to discover the most beautiful places on the planet and enjoy the feeling of harmony with nature. And what is the name of the "special board"? It's a paddleboard.

 

PADDLEBOARDS ARE RELIABLE AND SAFE

Paddleboards can be found in two versions, fixed and inflatable. Fixed boards can be made of different materials, such as wood, laminate, epoxy resin and carbon etc. But they have one common feature that the size is always the same. For this reason, the board is more difficult to store and transport than inflatable boards where you just deflate, roll it up and stash it in your backpack. As for inflatable boards, it's not as simple as it might seem. After all, it's not an inflatable mattress.

 

Inflatable board has a lot of vertical tubes under the top layer of the package which gives the board rigidity and strength.

 

The wider the board, the more stable and slower it is. You can easily ride two people on the big boards (both with a child and an adult). Even some would like to ride with pets or cargo. Narrower paddleboards are faster, but more difficult to balance on. They are mainly chosen by professionals.Don't leave your choice to chance and be aware in advance what features your paddleboard should have and what activities you will be doing with it.

 

All Around - if you love nature and are an adventurer who wants to spend more days on the water, narrower construction boards designed for exploring the surroundings are ideal for you and paddling at higher speed.

Touring – boards for active relaxation on a lake, stagnant river or pond are those that emphasize stability.

Multi-purpose - they are medium width and medium length. They have such properties that give them stability when going down calm rivers, stagnant waters, but also smaller waves.

Windsurfing – these boards are similar to a bent banana, with very rounded sides. They are wider and shorter, they are excellent to control and have high stability. Not suitable for a leisurely drive through nature.

Vigour - yoga on water has been a hit in recent years. These boards are wide and have grips.

Racing- they are designed to achieve the highest possible speed. They are narrow and long. They are not an ideal choice for complete beginners.
