5. Paddle Boarding Island Molat in Croatia
Heat Score - 66

4. Summer Nutrition 101: Everything Your Body Needs to Stay on Top
Heat Score - 72
1.2 million people are expected to paddle board this year. With the sun shining and the summer months quickly approaching, it’s time to grab our boards and hit the water. However, our boards aren’t the only things that we need to pack. We also need to make sure we have the right foods and nutrients for a long session under the scorching sun. Read more HERE.
3. Events of the Month: July 2019
Heat Score - 80
Attending a standup paddle boarding event is one of the best ways to enjoy the sport. It’s the perfect place to be introduced to the sport as a spectator, it’s a great place to learn and try new products, and it’s also a great way to connect with those who enjoy the sport just as much as you do. If you’re looking for an event to attend this month check out our list of SUP events in July HERE.
2. Best Touring Standup Paddle Boards 2019
Heat Score - 88
After personally paddling, weighing, and thoroughly testing 150+ boards, our expert staff has selected the best touring stand up paddle board 2019 models. These are designated by the "A" grade and organized by categories (inflatable, all-around, touring, etc). The Supconnect team traveled across 3 states and spent 8 months individually assessing each one of the inflatable SUP boards below, counting a total of 23 metrics per board and consistently applying them across all products. The end result: simply the most comprehensive, consumer-friendly, value-added review platform in the standup paddle world.
