There have been the debates between those who consider the paddleboards for rent for serious exercises and those who are just having fun.
When we look back at the history, we can agree that it is originated from Hawaii. Within the Polynesian triangle, the strong Hawaiian heritage dictates that this new sport is a popular activity for both purposes. Not to mention that there are no boundaries of using the SUP sport as strict as soccer, maybe. It has been increasing in popularity. That explains why many people are using the SUP for both exercises and recreations.
Back then, the tribes would use the tree trunks as the vehicle to do what we call as SUP nowadays. They also use the hollowed-out logs. Well, it did not last for a long time until we see the current version of the logs.
You probably still remember back then when you visit Hawaii you often saw folks walking in the middle of the lakes and the shorelines. Well, they were not literally “walking”, more like sliding. They are actually people like you. However, they have the privilege to access the boards, which are also eligible for you. The versatile activity is not exclusive for a specific group. Anyone can do it. Anyone, regardless the age, has the eligibility to conduct the SUP on Kauai’s waters. Yes, it is a suitable sport for kids too.
With the SUP board, you will be able to ride the waves and do some magical works to your muscles and overall body. You will get some speed and full body exercise, or just leisure activity. Now the difference is here. When we said about recreational or leisure activity, it is not only because of the thrills of riding the board. It is also because of the surrounding views offered by Kauai. It is a luxury that you won’t be able to get in other places. If we talk about SUP in your hometown river, you might find a lot of difficulties from bureaucracy, local laws, as well as the environmental limitations. In Kauai, on the contrary, you will have the full spots to enjoy the SUP for any purpose.
You can even combine the SUP activities with Yoga, Fishing, SUP with your puppies, and many more. It is an activity that everyone has the same opportunity to enjoy. You can also do this in a group with friends, family, or colleagues. So, when you consider the paddleboards for rent, you can use it for both exercises and recreations. You won’t regret it.
