Stand Up Paddlingboarding or SUP Perth

The SUP has been described as the bicycle of the sea! Everyone can do it. And whether you’re just having a leisurely paddle on the weekend, or your charging some Rotto lumps, we’ve got all the boards, paddles and accessories to keep you out there with everything related to SUP Perth.

Stand up paddle boarding is coming at you; Health/fitness, social/recreational, wave ride/thrills.

As SUP riding grows more physios, doctors, and personal trainers around the world are discovering the core strengthening that comes from people having fun. And this is no different for SUP Perth.

SUP Perth is growing like never before and as an activity it is relatively easy to gain the basic skills in an hour. Once confident people are going in groups for a “paddle”, be it across a pond, a lake, down a river, downwind in the ocean or just standing around on your board having a chat while catching the odd two foot wave at the local surf spot.
To date it is interesting that many of the world’s top surfers have converted to SUP. Tom Carrol ex world champion, Laird Hamilton big wave master, Bonga Perkins long board world
champion to name a few. For surfers it is something that their years of wave knowledge can translate into, and something they can share with their wives. Thanks to the large surfing population in our wonderful coastal city we live in, the SUP Perth market has seen increasing growth for this popular new water sport that is safe and fun for all.
The two hardest things to learn in surfing are catching the waves and standing up. With a SUP, a big board made of modern ultra-light materials and
a paddle, catching waves is much easier and because you are already standing up reading the incoming waves is also easier.

At SOS Surf we are the go to people for the SUP Perth population. Contact our store at 9430 7050 for all your SUP Perth related queries, as well as anything else about water sports and equipment.

Epoxy Vs Bamboo The short: Bamboo is lighter, stronger and more expensive. The long: Both boards have an Extruded PolyStryrne Core (often called EPS). Both boards use epoxy resin and fibreglass over that. The difference is the bamboo boards have a glass-bamboo-glass standwich on top and bottom. Even though the wood is thin (.7mm) it separates the glass layers and therefore increases strength. The board without bamboo must use more glass to obtain enough strength, and therefore weighs more. -Andy
