‘Rock Hopping’ involves paddling around a rocky coastline with a small swell coming in, and then paddling between the rocks and gullies. Kayakers have been doing this for a long time and it was only a matter of time before SUP’ers started giving it a go too. This video by Vince Shay and Fletcher Burton gives you a great idea of what it’s all about, and the importance of wearing the correct safety equipment and having sufficient paddling experience.
