STAND UP PADDLE BOARDING THE SPORT FOR EVERYONE

Kathryn Boyce, Marketing Assistant

When you find yourself steady on top of a stand up paddle board (or, SUP), taking in the peace of the water around you, you can begin to understand the craze that is quickly, albeit leisurely, taking over the fitness nation.

Stand up paddle boarding is the fastest growing water sport. It’s making such a large impact because, as Recreation Specialist Nathan Koppersmith puts it, “It’s unique. SUPs offer so many different opportunities and a variety of activities. You’re working out, working on your balance, challenging yourself.”

From yoga, to camping, to fishing, SUPs have the versatility to accomodate everyone’s needs. Boards can be tailored for touring, racing, white water, flat water recreation, etc.

Arkansas is the perfect place to dip your toes into the world of SUPs, considering the state boasts around 600,000 acres of lakes and over 9,000 miles of streams.

HOW DO I TRY ONE?

Stop by Outdoor Recreation and rent one! They are available for $12 a day.

You’ll also need to rent the SUP-specific trailer in order to transport the large boards.

WHERE CAN I TAKE MY SUP? Almost anywhere! Here are a few nearby locations to get you started: • Base Lake • Lake Hamilton • Greers Fairy Lake • Lake Ouchita • Arkansas River • Lake De Soto If you’re not ready to branch out on your own just yet, Outdoor Rec will be taking a trip to Sugar Loaf Mountain on 5 May, where a large majority of the venture involves stand up paddle boarding.
