Paddle Board FAQ
What exactly is a paddle board (SUP)?
A paddle board, also known as a stand up paddle board or SUP, is a large surfboard-like vessel where paddlers stand upright and propel themselves using a single-blade paddle. Originating in Hawaii, paddle boards are now popular on lakes, rivers, and oceans for activities ranging from cruising to yoga and surfing.
Which paddle board type is right for me? Hard or inflatable?
- Inflatable paddle boards are portable, easy to store, and stable. They're great for all skill levels, frequent travelers, and people with limited storage options.
- Hard paddle boards offer improved speed, and glide.
Each type addresses specific lifestyle needs based on storage, travel, performance, and style preferences. Read our guide here on how to choose the perfect paddle board for you.
What factors should I consider when choosing a board size?
Your weight, skill level, and intended use matter most.
- Heavier riders or those carrying gear/family should opt for longer/wider boards.
- Beginners benefit from wider, more stable boards.
Advanced paddlers focused on speed or performance can use longer, narrower touring or racing boards. For more precise guidance, check out our SUP size chart based on rider weight and board volume
Do I need a leash and personal flotation device (PFD)?
An ankle leash connects you to your board in case of a fall, crucial in surf or strong currents. A US Coast Guard–approved PFD may also be required depending on location. Always follow local regulations and prioritize gear for safety.
How do I care for my paddle board?
Proper maintenance extends lifespan.
- Avoid prolonged sun exposure when not in use. Store in shade or flip the deck to protect against fading or heat damage.
- Rinse off sand, salt, and dirt after each use.
- For inflatables, after washing, make sure the board is dry before storing it in its carry bag.
Repair dings promptly to maintain structural integrity and warranty. Treating your board with care ensures peak performance and long-term enjoyment
How do inflatables compare to hard paddle boards?
Inflatables are lightweight, portable, duable and easy to store but require inflation and deflation. Hard paddle boards are ready to go, rigid, and offer improved glide and speed, though they require more storage consideration and are more challenging to transport. Both have benefits; choose based on what makes the most sense for you.
What paddle board accessories should I consider?
- Adjustable paddle (included with inflatables)
- Ankle Leash
- PFD
- Electric Pump (manual pump included with inflatables)
- Fins (Included)
- Dry Bag
