Start watersports anytime with the ITIWIT brand. When it comes to stand up paddles (SUP), you have a wide range to choose from. It’s not always easy to find your way around when you are buying one for the first time. Stand up paddle for occasional or regular trips? Detachable or adjustable paddle? The ITIWIT brand will try to answer all those questions with our wide range of products.
You can choose a stand up paddle board according to several criteria:
Itiwit suggests 2 types of level in stand up paddling:
Paddles are either fixed, adjustable or detachable/adjustable.
1) Adjustable paddles: To adjust the paddle according to your size or your activity level.
2) Detachable/adjustable paddles: More compact, they can be detached into 2 pieces and fit into a stand up paddle bag (89 cm). You will also be able to adjust it according to your size, your activity level.
3) Fixed paddles: Intended for 1 person. They are lighter than adjustable paddles.
To know which standard size of stand up paddle will suit you the best, hold it straight in front of you, the blade on the floor. Your wrist should be just able to comfortably bend over the paddle handle when your arm is extended above your head.
Trips:
Paddle length = your size + 17 to 27 cm
Racing:
Paddle length = your size + 20 to 30 cm (a longer paddle will give you more power, a better extension and a better position)
Surfing:
Length paddle = your size + 10 to 20 cm (a shorter paddle for surfing will be less cumbersome)
