Paddle Surfing

My Favourite Hobby

Paddle surfing consists of surfing the water standing up on a board and using a paddle to propel our movement. It is not necessary to have waves to practice it; moreover, it is usually done in calm aquatic environments. Being a light water sport -which does not imply great risks or efforts- it is very versatile.

As a water sport paddle surfing is extremely attractive; for those who only want to enjoy a ride on the water and relax while contemplating the surrounding landscape. Therefore, it is an ideal way to connect with nature -water, sun, sea breeze- and keep fit without great effort. And here lies one of its great advantages for the inexperienced beginner in this sport: there is no need to deal with the waves; nor is there any need for powerful physical resistance. This is why it is often said that SUP is a low-impact sport.
