Paddling standing on a lake, river or sea.
The inflatable board
Most stand up paddle boards today are inflatable: they roll up into a bag and can be transported in a boot. Their drop-stitch technology, with thousands of threads connecting both sides, gives them great rigidity once inflated to high pressure. The length determines the use: a short and wide board is stable and easy to handle for beginners, while a longer board glides better and goes straight for touring.

Inflating and transporting
An inflatable board should be inflated to the pressure specified by the manufacturer, which is usually high: using a manual pump requires real effort, while an electric pump, like the Spinera, plugged into the car socket, does the job without tiring you out. The transport bag Jobe holds the board, paddle, and pump. The wateproof bag keeps your phone, keys, and snacks dry on the board, secured by the elastic cord.
Safety and maintenance
The leash, attached to the ankle, connects the paddler to the board: in case of a fall, it doesn’t get carried away by the wind or current. You wear a buoyancy aid and check the weather and wind conditions, which can pull you away from the shore. The removable fin is attached with its screws, which should be kept as spares. A repair kit can fix a small puncture. Rinse the board with fresh water and leave it to dry before rolling it up.

Frequently asked questions
What size paddle is good for beginners?
For beginners, a versatile board about three meters long and eighty centimeters wide offers good stability. Long and narrow boards, which are faster, are suitable for touring on water.
What pressure should an inflatable paddle be inflated to?
Most boards are inflated between twelve and fifteen PSI, with the exact value indicated near the valve. If under-inflated, the board bends in the middle and becomes unstable.
How much weight can a stand-up paddle hold?
Each board specifies a maximum load related to its volume in liters. You should choose a model whose capacity significantly exceeds your weight, especially if you’re bringing along a bag, a child, or a dog.
Is the leash essential for paddle boarding?
Yes, the leash connects your ankle to the board: if you fall, the board doesn’t drift away with the wind or current. It remains a safety float always within reach.
How should an inflatable paddle be stored in winter?
You should rinse it with fresh water, dry it well, then store it slightly inflated or rolled without tight folds, sheltered from frost and sunlight. The removable fins should be stored separately.
