What is a racing SUP board?
With a racing SUP board, you can reach record speeds on the water. Thanks to the length and width of the board, it cuts through the water, so to speak. There is hardly any resistance from the water, allowing you to achieve high speeds effortlessly.
In addition, you can stay paddling on one side of the board for longer periods of time without turning too far. As a result, you lose less time, which is essential during a race.
A racing SUP not only comes in different lengths, but also in different widths. In this regard, a narrow racing SUP is logically faster than a wide SUP. But remember that during a long-distance race or in rough conditions, a narrow board can actually be a disadvantage. This is because a narrow board is less stable than a wide board.
