Demystify this great sport! SUP Basics video offers an inside look at how to get started: get on, balance, manoeuver, and paddle. Once you learn these basics skills, try pivot turns, or shift your stance to challenge yourself and discover your SUP’s capabilities. Try a surf stance to catch a few small waves.

Nothing compares to actually paddling as the best way to learn, but instructional video is a great companion, both before you go out and to pick up pointers to apply as you go.

For the beginner the video marked with a "" is a "must see". It packs in all the basics to get you on your way to understanding stand up paddle boarding in only 8.5 minutes.
