Introduction To White Water SUP With Beth Kirby / SUPboarder How To
In this SUPboarder video, Beth Kirby introduces you to White Water SUP and what types of paddling can be done on moving water.
White Water SUP combines the technical aspects of paddleboarding with the high paced, high octane nature of white water. It's normally done on inland waterways, be it man-made or natural rivers. The different types of disciplines included in white water SUP are river running, river surfing and SUPX.
Beth found White Water SUP after seeing some friends trying it 4 years ago. She comes from a white water kayaking background with many medals won in World competitions. Beth is also stacking up lots of UK wins and experience in SUPX, river surfing and river running.
• Before trying white water SUP, It's important to understand the risks, dangers and the correct type of safety equipment to wear including a quick release waist leash before heading out on white water. Get some coaching and avoid paddling alone. Beth will be bringing you more videos about the right gear, safety and top tips, so keep an eye out for these.

Insane show of skills for this girl, the way she clean the rapid at 2:01 is impressive! 😳Around here the most difficult part of River Sup is to find other people to hang out with 😅 Luckily I have the chance to go out sometimes on easy rivers with a group of expert canadian canoists, which is great since they are not as fast as kayakers and we can keep up together without many problems 😊

Very soon Josh! Just putting together the clips this week. Thanks for your patience. Beau
Any tips on catching eddies? I thought waves were going to be the challenging part of WW suping but eddies are squirrelly

Hi Nick! Thanks for the comment. I’ll get Beth to help you out with this question - she’ll reply shortly.
Is there a pub at the end of the course. If not I'll stick to Norfolk 😀

If you can kayak, you’d absolutely smash SUP.
no sweeping
