SUP (Stand Up Paddleboarding) is the newest craze in watersports and is growing faster than any other segment in the market. And it’s no wonder : one part surfing, one part kayaking = 100% fun ! We have stand-up boards from Surftech, Imagine, and a convertible “hybrid” stand-up board from Ocean Kayak that coverts from a stand-up board to a sit-on-top kayak simply by adding a seat and a second blade to the convertible SUP paddle. Don’t get left out..... Catch the wave !
