Do I Need A Lesson?
Stand up paddling is a relatively ‘easy’ and safe outdoor activity.
However, as Gordon points out there can be some hidden dangers, so it is a good idea to get a lesson before you go out. You need to know what to do if you got into trouble at sea, for example.
It will cover how to paddle properly, cruise along without falling off as well as basic safety and introduction to the sport.
We had a two hour introductory lesson with Ticket To Ride which cost just £40 including board, paddle and wetsuit hire.
They also offer a great package for people looking to catch and ride waves for the first time.
We would definitely say it’s worth having a lesson to get you off on the right footing.
