Stand-Up Paddleboarding
Stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) is easy to learn. If you just bear in mind a few basic principles, you’ll soon be having lots of fun. We’ll show you the most important points on equipment, technique and handling, as well as some particularly beautiful lakes for paddleboarding in Graubünden.
What.
Equipment
Pay attention to the length, thickness and width of the board. These dimensions are crucial for stability, handling properties and enjoyment when stand-up paddleboarding. You can choose from inflatables (iSUPs) and hard boards. Inflatables are easier to transport than hard boards, which are somewhat more expensive but transfer the water movements more directly. We recommend medium-length boards (2.75 to 3.5 metres) for beginners. Choose a board with a thickness of 15 cm, which guarantees you feel stable when riding the board. In addition, the wider the board, the more stable you are, and the narrower it is, the less water resistance there will be. Important accessories:
- Paddle: adjustable in height and capable of floating – the paddle should not sink if you fall off
- Leash: safety line that is attached to the ankle and prevents the board from drifting away
- Life jacket: always carry with you, life jackets are mandatory from a distance of 300 metres from the shore
- Sun protection clothing: Lycra shirt or neoprene suit
- Air pump and repair kit for inflatables
