ABOUT THE PROGRESSION COURSES

We are excited to launch the world first personal progression programme purely for stand up paddleboarders and to focus on their specific needs. The programme has been directly developed from Sian Sykes personal SUP experiences, which reflects a real world of necessary skills development which she has refined over the years. We are proud to have developed a skills scheme to help and to encourage paddlers to develop new skills and to gain confidence during their SUP career. The ultimate aim of this skills course progression is to give people the skills to enjoy playing, journeying and even travel to remote areas while being mindful of the responsibility and the potential consequences and impact we have on our world.

MIN NUMBERS

We require a min. number of 4 participants for the session to run. If you are booked onto a mixed open group and we are below the required numbers, we can offer to reschedule you for the next available mixed open group session or move you to a an exclusive private booking or you could make up the difference of a mixed open group price of 4 people. We will try our best to notify you a day prior to advise, if unsure please contact the team here.

PERSONAL SUP EQUIPMENT

You are more than welcome to attend the course using your own personal equipment, providing it is safe and suitable in design and performance. Please make sure you are ready to rock and roll with your kit before the session start time to avoid shortening your session on the water with us.
