Stand Up Paddle Board Styles and Shapes
Apr 26, 2022
In this video I talk about Stand Up Paddle Board styles and shapes. I discuss the difference between a planning board, recognizable by the rounded nose, and a displacement or touring board, aka pointy boards.
I also discuss considerations when you are choosing which board is right for you
I talk about,
- board shape
- board volume
- style of fins and why sometimes there are multiple
- how wind affects the different styles of boards
- and the general pluses and minuses of each type

Hope to see you on the water soon!
