If you've ever tried a Stand Up Paddleboard, (SUP), you know it is not always easy to get it to do what you want. This 3+ hour class will cover the 6 basic strokes, equipment, safety, and how to do a rescue in the event of a fall. By the end of the class you will be able to maneuver your SUP with ease, and you will know when to paddle and when to stay on shore, as well as how to rescue and be rescued.
Our teachers are all certified instructors. (PSUPA Professional Stand Up Paddleboard Association)
