There is so much to love about this sport so in honor of today's Thanksgiving Holiday here in the United States, we've decided to jot down a list of the Top 5 Reasons to be thankful for paddle boarding.
7 Sup Wonders Of The World
There are places in this world that are truly something special and stand out above the rest. For standup paddle boarding (SUP) there are such places that deserve recognition and we’re dubbing them the 7 SUP Wonders of the World.
Stand Up From The Crowd With A Sup Party
When planning an event or party, finding a fresh and exhilarating central activity that everyone can enjoy can be a tough task - until you discover stand up paddle boarding, that is. SUP participation rates across America have rocketed from 1.1 million to 2.8 million people in the first half of this decade alone, and it’s not hard to see why.
Are You Taking The Right Supplement?
Chasing health, anti-aging, staying young, keeping up with the latest health trends…I find these attributes true for most paddlers. But aside from that nutritious food you consume and those vitamins and minerals you take, do you know what the best supplement when it comes to health and longevity?
Protecting Our Ocean Environments Through Paddle Boarding
The evolution of stand up paddle is creating the worlds next environmental advocates. As more paddlers explore their own local waters more is being uncovered on what is polluting our liquid playgrounds. Did you know the United States has 13 National Marine Sanctuaries? Four of which are located on the California Coast. These protected waters are the underwater versions of our US national parks.
Should You Paddle Board With A Cold?
Cold and flu season is not a fun one, and if you have survived the season “flu-free”, consider yourself blessed. And if you are caught right in the midst of a cold or flu, you might wonder: “Should I work out? Should I train?”
The Sunscreen Dilemma
As the sun rays warm your skin and you meditate in the rhythmic pulse of the waves, you shouldn’t have to ruin your break by worrying that you’re not doing enough to protect yourself and the marine life that is living beneath your feet.
The Benefit Of Stand Up Paddle Boarding For Kids
Stand Up Paddle Boarding is growing and getting the attention it deserves from people of all ages. I, for one, enjoy going out with my family and glide above the surface of the water while we soak in warm rays as we paddle. What my teenage daughter isn’t aware of is that she’s not only having fun while working on her tan, but she’s also getting a great workout too.
Could Caffeine Boost Your Sup Performance?
Did you start today with a cup of coffee? Most of us already enjoy a daily cup of Joe, with around 64 percent of Americans drinking at least one cup of coffee each day. But while Americans may drink the most coffee in the world, coffee can be much more than just part of your morning routine.
What Are The Mental Health Benefits Of Sup?
Year after year, Google Trends as well as the SUPIA (Standup Paddle Industry Association) continues to report an increase in the participation rates in stand up paddleboarding. From first-timers taking a class while on vacation, to long-time enthusiasts, it is easy to see the attraction to the activity. SUPing can be fun, relaxing, and an amazing way to stay in shape.
The Benefit Of Training Indoors
SUP and outdoor enthusiasts have a hard time staring at walls and going nowhere. We are outdoorsy people. We heed the call of the wild. We embrace fresh air with gusto, and seize the early morning glassy waters of sunrise. We don’t belong indoors. We can’t even sit behind desks without staring at a screensaver of some sort of outdoor scenery. Yet, sadly, even in the sunny summer months, we can’t always get out on the water.
Reasons Why Sup Is The Perfect Sport For Social Distancing
In this new era where group gatherings and public outings have become something that we're supposed to avoid if possible the need for outdoor activity and getting out of the house has become quite the desire for most folks. Luckily, standup paddle boarding (SUP) is the best of both worlds in that sense and allows you to social distance but still get exercise and fresh air.
