Hidden Ways with Inflatable Paddle Boards: an Exploration Guide for Intermediate Paddlers
When you have mastered the basic paddling skills, can stand steadily on the lake, and even complete a short cruise, you may start to think: "How else can you play with inflatable paddle board?"
The answer is: far more than you think.
The following are some hidden ways for intermediate players to explore more paddle board fun and make your paddleboard journey no longer monotonous.
Paddle board camping: turn water travel into an overnight adventure
With portable inflatable paddle boards such as Funwater, you can easily carry camping equipment and set off. Choose a camping site on an island in the middle of the lake or by the river, pack dry food, moisture-proof mats, and tents into waterproof bags and fix them on the inflatable SUP board, and enjoy the feeling of falling asleep at night listening to the water flowing.
SUP fishing: enjoy exclusive fishing time in still water
Intermediate players can try paddle board fishing. Compared with traditional boats, inflatable stand up paddle boards are light and flexible, suitable for entering shallows and wetlands. For paddle board enthusiasts who love fishing, this is the best combination.
However, you need to choose a paddle board model with multiple D rings and elastic rope nets to facilitate the fixing of fishing gear and equipment.
SUP Yoga: Improve core stability
SUP yoga is an ideal way to combine relaxation and exercise. You can practice basic asanas on the quiet lake in the early morning. This gameplay not only challenges balance, but also enhances body control.
Multi-board team water games: a new social SUP gameplay
Intermediate players can organize "multi-person water activities", such as:
Water paddle board relay
Double paddle board synchronization race
SUP water gun battle (suitable for family or friend groups)
Suitable for holidays or summer lakes, it is a creative choice for new party gameplay
Intermediate Skill Challenge: Paddling against the Wind and Simple Wave Practice
Mastering the skills of paddling against the wind and controlling the side waves is the key to advanced paddle boarding skills. Try it in safe waters in the morning or evening when there is light wind. Some cruising paddle boards from Funwater have good wind resistance control and are ideal practice tools.
The world of inflatable paddle boards is far more than just "standing up and paddling in a circle". From camping to yoga, from fishing to water team activities, inflatable paddle boards open the door to more creative ways for intermediate players.
