If you live on this planet then you’ve likely heard a lot about SUP lately, also known as standup paddleboarding. It’s all the rage in places like Hawaii and California (thanks to pictures of celebs like Jennifer Aniston and Laird Hamilton doing it) and has started to gain a lot of traction here in the northwest. Lucky for us, we’re surrounded by water! With a short 2.5 hr drive you can be paddlesurfing into small waves at West Port or Ocean Shores. Or, if you only have a couple minutes to spare after work and want to bypass your usual gym workout, Puget Sound, Lake Washington and Lake Sammamish are all great flat water options.
We made a little introductory video to show you the basics of SUP and demonstrate how easy it is. Hopefully it will answer some questions you may have about the sport.
