Stand Up Paddle Board Lessons on South Padre Island

Stand Up Paddle Boarding (otherwise know as SUP, Beach Boy Surfing), combines standing on a large surfboard and propelling yourself with a canoe type paddle. The sport was once practiced by the beach boys of Waikiki, with roots even futher back to ancient Hawaiians. Stand Up Paddling is a great way to enjoy the water, while getting a great workout, and an excellent alternative if the wind is light during your kiteboarding visit to the island. Stand Up Paddle Boarding is also great fun for any family member who loves the water.

 

Cross over watersport enthusiast around the world are picking up on the resurgence of this sport as an alternative sport to surfing, ktieboarding and windsurfing.. It is hardly uncommon to see surfers paddling into waves with carbon paddles at most surf beaches or people just gliding gently across the water for a downwinder.

 

Stand Up Paddle Boarding provides the ultimate cross training and core workout for anyone looking for an alternative when the waves are small, or the wind isn't blowing. The boards are extra wide and long for stability. The wider boards, 30" wide and 11' long, are super stable, whereas the narrower boards, 26" wide 11'6" long are a bit trickier to balance and paddle through any heavy terrain. Stand Up Paddling is a great way to enjoy the water, while getting a great workout, and an excellent alternative if the wind is light during your kiteboarding visit to the island.
