stand up paddleboarding
Upright water propulsion
Stand up paddleboarding is a water sport where a person stands on a large, buoyant board and propels themselves using a long paddle.
It emerged from surfing culture but works on flat water—lakes, rivers, harbors—as well as waves.
Often abbreviated SUP: We went SUPing on the lake.
The activity doubles as exercise, with variations for yoga, fishing, and racing.
