Giant SUP
Stand-up Paddleboarding, originating from the sunny beaches of Hawaii, is a fantastic way to test your group’s balance, teamwork, and help them gain confidence both physically and mentally as they participate in a range of games and challenges on top of the board.
All participants will begin by paddling in a kneeling position before moving to their feet which allows for nervous participants to transition at their own pace. Once standing, your group must work together to efficiently manoeuvre the large inflatable board with the assistance of their instructor.
Though a capsize is unlikely, losing their balance and falling in is quite common! Participants will receive a full safety briefing before using the board and will be guided through the process to easily recover themselves and return to the board.
We can also offer an adapted/wheelchair accessible stand-up paddleboard which will enable those with limited mobility to join in the fun.
