In this SUPboarder How To, we provide you with the technique to climbing back onto your SUP after falling off.
There’s no wrong or right way to climb back onto your SUP after falling off. We have different body shapes and body strength which requires us to use the best technique to suit our ability. This video shows a few different ways to climb back up onto the board and touches on some of the things that may be hindering your ability to climb back on as well.
If you have any other ideas or techniques to help climb back up on the board, please comment below as we would love to hear your experiences.
Hi Beau,
Thanks for this usefull video. Personally I put my elbows on the board as far as possible (my fists being under my head), then I pull my arms to my sides. I feel it minimises the energy needed to climb on the board. Also, trying to stay as flat as possible on the board to avoid it flipping.
Cheers
Hi Michel, Great tips you have suggested! I try this technique next time and feel the difference. I’m sure this will help other paddlers reading the comments. Thanks.
