Paddle-boarders: You’ve probably seen them serenely floating on some lake or balancing majestically off a nearby shore. Yes, balance is a big part of paddle-boarding, but it’s not as difficult as it looks. Let us help you find the paddle board that’ll make days on the water even better.
Check weight capacity on any paddle board you’re interested in to make sure it suits your needs. Some are sturdy enough to hold two adults, or a grown up and a child.
An inflatable SUP is convenient for long drives to the beach in a small car, especially if the board comes with its own leash, pump, fins and a travel backpack to fold it all into.
Everyone falls off their board when they’re first starting. But a paddle board with a wide, no-slip deck will help you keep your footing.
