      Hello sir/ma'am, may I ask, is paddleboarding fun? I know it is a dumb question, but I never tried it. :)
      Have a good day!

    Very useful video
    Paddleboarding has also become very popular in the UK. Last week I hired a SUP for my first attempt, but was a bit annoyed to get a text saying due to high winds at the coast, all kayak / SUP rentals had been cancelled. The wind didn't seem that strong to me, but in hindsight, it was the right thing to do. Seeing this video lets you see how the wind can affect a paddleboarder.

    I’ve been surfing for over 12 years if you carry a kayak paddle double-sided paddle with you strap to your bored you could always sit down and kayak to safety

    When you go out go out against the wind. It makes coming home much easier. However, occasionally the wind will change and you'll have countervailing winds in both directions. It's a great sport that keeps you fit. I'll be out paddling in Miami beach tomorrow.

    I like how she lays on the paddle when she paddles home

    This is a great instructional video. Personally, spinal fusion was not my idea of a Big Island souvenir.

    Was the paddle being used in the correct direction? Remember the blade is to be sloping away from you. Common mistake.

    This is the thing may people do it at sea when you should be doing it at a lake or a slow flowing river that you can touch the bottom

    So don’t paddle way out in heavy winds and cold water...almost a no brainer!!

      Sometimes people don't check the forecast... also the wind might be stronger than forecast.

    What about taking your cell phone with a waterproof case? It wouldn't hurt at all.

    What I don't understand is why her flotation device didn't go off either time she fell in the water. Isn't it supposed to?

      You have to pull the tab

      It depends, some are manual pull. Some are automatic.

    Paddle boarding is not her passion, clearly.
