SUP TIP - Momentum is your friend!

Standing up on the SUP board can be difficult for beginners. This is where momentum is your friend.

• The board must always be moving forward. Why? Because it is very difficult to stand up on a board that is stationary.

• Paddle out on your knees, when the board is moving at a nice pace, stand up and start paddling and away you go!

• If you are already paddling and feel you are going to fall off, start paddling a bit more, and make momentum your friend.
