SUP 101: The 2 questions ALL paddlers must answer

  1. Should I be out here paddling today and how do I know that?
  2. If yes to above, then do I have a solution for when things do not go as expected?

Paddle boarding is not like Power Boating. There is a very high probability that you or your paddling partners WILL fall off the board and be in the water at some point. You do not just hop out of your car and climb on the board good to go. To have maximum FUN, we need to know how and why things happen ON and IN the water.

SUP on Lake Powell

Join our SUP adventure trip to Lake Powell,  October 15 – 23, 2027.  Build your skills in real-life conditions with multiple days of low-ratio coaching. Join us for an amazing week exploring the side canyons of Lake Powell on stand up paddleboards. We’ll be based off of a houseboat that will give us the mobility to explore a wide range of canyons and features on the lake without having to paddle between them.  There will be opportunities for hiking as well as SUP exploration.
