A surf SUP board is a specific type of SUP board that has been specially developed for paddle boarding on wild waters . Think of waters such as the sea or a river with a strong current.

Such a type of paddle board is therefore extra wide, so you have more stability and notice less of the waves. Surfing on your SUP can be a lot of fun , because you can catch waves and have adventures on the water.

You don't have to paddle alone on calm waters with a surf SUP board, on the contrary. However, not to fall off your surf supboard on the water requires a little more skill and balance, making it not suitable for beginners without first practicing on calm water.

SUP surfing is a variation of supping usually practiced by experienced surfers. This is because, just like surfing, you then go looking for waves and then let yourself be carried along with this wave.

The advantage of surfing on a Stand Up Paddle board is that you have more overviewcan paddle to the wave more easily and are more maneuverable. Therefore, we would also like to tell you a bit more about what to look out for when finding a suitable SUP surfboard.

Difference between an all-round SUP board and surf SUP board

While all-around and touring SUP boards focus on providing plenty of balance, the main feature of surf SUP boards is maneuverability. This allows you to better adapt changing waves and rougher water.

Other distinctive specifications of surf SUP boards is that they are smaller, which improves maneuverability. This maneuverability makes it easier to cut through waves. When buying a surf sup board, it is wise to keep the term maneuverability in mind.

Hard or inflatable Surf Supboard?

When looking for a surf SUP board, one of the most important choices you have to make is whether to go with a hard or inflatable board. Both options have advantages and disadvantages, and it is important to weigh them before making a decision.

In brief:

  • If you compare hard SUP boards to inflatable SUP boards, one disadvantage of hard boards is that they cannot be rolled up, making storage and transportation difficult.
  • Hard SUP boards, however, are thinner and more suitable for carving waves.
  • Compared to hard boards, inflatable SUP boards are thicker when inflated, meaning they can generally support more weight.

Hard surf SUP board

First, of course, you ask yourself whether you prefer to buy a SUP board inflatable or hard surf Supboard. In fact, in different situations, a particular board may be more convenient.

For example, do you live close to the sea? Then a hard board can come in handy because you can put it in the water right away. But in many cases, most people do not live close to the beach.

Inflatable surf SUP board

Should you live a little farther from the sea? Then an inflatable board can be more convenient. It is easier to transport an inflatable board because you can roll it up. You then pump up the board on the spot after which you can put it in the water. It is advisable to look into an electric SUP pump.

Surf SUP board suitable for surfing?

When you go surfing on a SUP board, it is important to have a deck pad suitable for the sport. This is because the deck of a surf SUP board gets wet every time you go out on the water, which is not always the case when paddle boarding over still water. surf sup board

Deck pad

This makes a good grip all over the board crucial to resist sudden movements that can be caused by waves. It is therefore essential that the deck pad of your surf SUP board provides the necessary grip. But how do you determine if the deck pad of your SUP board is suitable for surfing?

First, make sure the pad has a good texture and firm grip. This will help you keep your feet firmly on the board and prevent you from slipping while paddling and surfing. A deck pad that does not provide enough grip can put you at risk and ruin your surfing experience.

Kickpad

Another important aspect of the board is a kick pad. This is a raised part of the deck pad, usually near the stern of the board, that you need to turn and pivot quickly when the wave comes.

It helps you quickly shift your weight to the back of the board, allowing you to easily maneuver the board and adjust to the direction of the wave. By leaning back and applying pressure on your back leg, you can have a firm stance and catch waves easily.

Surf SUP boards benefits

Special surf Supboards have been developed for a reason. For example, these types of boards are often short and wide, giving you more stability and maneuverability. This also makes the board more resistant to waves and makes it easier to go sea supping.

Moreover, there are even more benefits to a SUP surfboard, and to make it easy for you, we have listed them for you below:

  • The boards are resistant to powerful waves (at sea);
  • A surf SUP board is extra wide;
  • On the board, you experience more stability because of its size;
  • The board is suitable for both surfing and supping (and a combination thereof).

Can you surf with a SUP board?

Stand up paddle surfing can be an exhilarating experience where you can ride waves and have adventures on the water. Unlike paddling on still water, you need regular practice and training to master surfing on SUP boards. It also takes some skill and balance to stay on the board and be able to cut through the waves, so it is recommended to start on calmer waters before taking on the challenge on the waves.

The cost of a surf SUP board varies depending on the brand, size, quality and type of board you want to buy. In general, you can buy a new surf SUP board for a price between € 500 and € 2000, depending on the factors mentioned. Second-hand surf SUP boards are also available, which are often cheaper than new ones.

Can you surf sup everywhere?

In principle, you can surf sup in many places, but it is important to know that there are often local rules and regulations that you must adhere to. For example, in some areas specific zones have been designated where you are allowed to surf and other zones where this is not allowed. It is therefore wise to consult the local rules and regulations prior to surfing.

In addition, it is important to take safety measures, such as wearing a leash and taking into account other users of the water, such as swimmers and other water sports enthusiasts.
