STAND UP PADDLE
FUERTEVENTURA

The ever growing protagonist of international beaches, the Stand Up Paddle (SUP) gives a unique feeling, as close as possible to walk on water

Do you want to learn how to surf with a board and a paddle, or do you want to improve your paddling technique to intensify your fun and your workouts?

The SUP, or the Stand Up Paddle, is basically a variant of conventional surfing: in this modern version you stand and move around with the help of a paddle, on a board bigger than the common surfboard.

The SUP paddle therefore serves to maintain balance, to change direction, to move forward or backwards: it is both the steering wheel and the engine of our equipment. Why should those who have never practiced SUP throw themselves and try this sport? Simple: the fun is guaranteed, right from the very first attempts. Besides being extremely rewarding, simply cruising along the coast is also a great workout for everyone who wants to keep fit.

The SUP offers in fact a relaxed way to play and have fun in the water, with the added benefit of toning the whole body: it is no coincidence that many windsurfers, kitesurfers and surfers, on days of flat sea and weak wind, practice SUP to keep fit (and not to stay too far from the water).
