SUP - Stand Up Paddle Surfing"Stand up paddle" surfing (SUP) is a relatively new sport that has its origin in Hawaii. Over the past few years it has gained a lot of popularity not only within the community of surfers, but with anybody of any age who wants to improve his/her fitness and balance skills.
SUP can be practiced almost anywhere, be it in calm sea for long distance rides, in waves (great fun!), in lakes, rivers,...... All you need is a is a SUP board and a paddle.
At Windsurfcitycyprus we've got a range of FANATIC Fly 10'6 boards and paddles, which can be rented on an hourly basis or with a 10hour ticket. For the first time on a SUP board we recommend an introduction training to show you the basic techniques, making the right stroke, how to move your body and arms in a correct way and how to turn the board.
There is lots of instructions, blogs and videos in the internet that you can watch and read to improve your SUP technique. One of our favourites is the one from surfing legend Dave Kalama on www.davidkalama.com, who we had the honour to meet personally (and actually getting our very first lesson from).
