Tips for Testing Paddleboards

Looking for help standing up on a paddleboard? These tips help you stay safe and also give you better stability on the water.

Safety Pointers:

• Wear a life jacket
• Keep your ankle leash attached
• Wear water shoes
• Suit up with a wetsuit
• Use a helmet for coastal adventuring

Going up against strong winds or hidden rocks can make staying close to your board – and afloat – a challenge. Staying safe lets you relax with friends and family.

How To Maximize Your Times:

• Look where you want to go
• Grab a board with the same volume as your weight
• Aim for a paddle that’s taller than you
• Start in calm water
• Don’t give up if you end up in the water – you will
