What is paddle boarding?
Paddle boarding is a sport that involves riding on a single or double-sided paddle board, typically transporting the boarder across the water using a paddle as propulsion.
Paddleboarding has been popular in the United States since the early 2000s, but it has only recently become a common sight in Europe. This is mostly due to the recent rise of paddle boarding as a therapeutic sport.
Benefits of paddle boarding
Paddling is a low-impact sport that can be enjoyed by anyone, of any age or physical fitness level.
There are no motors, engines, or motorsailers involved in paddle boarding; this means that there are no emissions, noise pollution, or danger of getting hit by a boat sailing vessel.
Paddle boarding is a great activity for people of all ages, from young children to the elderly. The sport is also enjoyed by people of all fitness levels, from those who are recovering from an injury to those who are simply looking for a low-impact way to get some cardio in.
Paddle boarding is accessible to almost anyone. You don't need to be a top-level athlete, and you don't need to be in shape.
