Glide across calm waters while getting a full-body workout that's surprisingly meditative. SUP is easier to learn than surfing and works your core, balance, and arms while letting you explore lakes, rivers, or coastlines from a unique perspective.

People who tried this

I climbed on the board worried about failing, but losing wasn’t a big deal since the whole experience was already worth it. As I glanced back to my girlfriend, I told her to take some pictures, and she gladly complied. I felt confident, so I mustered all of my strength to stand up. On the fifth try, I finally did it! It was a euphoric moment, and I couldn’t believe what just happened.

Finally, I’m ready to learn the basics of SUP! Undeterred by the strong currents, I struggled to stay on the board. I ended up tired but was able to kneel and paddle my first strokes. It was overall a great experience, but I wanted to add the icing on the cake. I wanted to stand up.

Despite my stance making me feel as though I wasn’t going to fall off the board, I eventually did. The majority of our paddling had been in one general direction, so on my first turn, I lost my balance and made my way into the drink.
