Inflatable Stand up Paddle boards tend to be more durable, more stable and take up less storage space, but are also less rigid.

And although some schools offer SUP rental of this type of material, we do not recommend it in any case. Why? Because we are in an area where there is almost always wind, and inflatable boards are moved by the wind very easily. Besides being dangerous, they are very uncomfortable to govern. And we watch mainly for safety and above all we want the client to enjoy this sport.

Although the hard paddle surf boards, they need much more maintenance and are much more expensive.
