There's an interesting post on a cycle coaching blog that I follow that would be relevant for distance paddlers. It recommends long steady distance training at a low pre determined heart rate zone as opposed to high intensity training. For some…

Has anyone here actually ridden a Sevylor in the waves? How does it compare to a rigid board of the same dimensions?

I got one to go with my garmin 405 on the other wrist. Do you find that the waterproofing mists up a bit on the inside whenever you want to take a picture?

Thanks Jon. They look a bit hard though, any chance you could put some stuff up that would be doable by beginners as well? Thanks in advance

That's a really good idea, I hadn't realised that the glue would melt like that. How long were you heating it up for? I'm assuming carbon is ok with getting hot? Regards Jackson SUP Boards

Good flatwater paddle

Flat as a pancake from shrove tuesday today so i had to content myself with a distance paddle. I say distance paddle but it was only 5 miles and STILL took around 2 hours! 11ft board sitting deep in the water with my excess weight on it!I'm also wondering if taking my old straight paddle out (no bend in it) was such a good idea. One of these days I will get fit enough to break the 3mph mark easily!JacksonSUP equipment for sale See More
