Vantaggi delle tavole da paddle rigide
Stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) is a popular water sport for many years. If you’re looking to purchase bulk paddle boards, you might want to consider hard SUPs or inflatable paddle boards. Both inflatable and hard SUPs have their unique advantages and disadvantages that distinguish them. The considerations when choosing a hard or inflatable SUP will be such as portability, speed, tracking, weight capacity, etc. Here are some benefits of solid SUPs:
Durability:
Solid paddle boards are generally more durable than inflatable SUPs. They are made of fiberglass or EPS material. Quality manufacturing processes contribute to the board’s overall durability. The outer shell of a hard paddleboard is reinforced to resist impacts from rocks, debris in the water.
High Performance:
Hard paddleboards can be built in different shapes. Some are made narrower, with a more pointed shape. Many hard SUP boards have curved edges, especially in the front and back, which improves the overall performance. Some hard paddleboards are designed with displacement hulls. These hulls cut through waves instead of going over them, providing additional advantages in terms of speed. Hard SUPs are better suited for surfing and navigating choppy waters..
Easy to setup
You can start to paddle on the water quicker with a hard board than an inflatable SUP. You don’t need to inflate deflate, or damaged by rock. You can avoid the issue of deflating the SUP to fit in your bag. Also you don’t have to bring the pump.
The hard SUPs can be further classified into two types: hard-top and soft-top.
Hard-top SUPs are made of dense and durable materials like fiberglass or carbon fiber and EPS core. They are heavier than inflatable SUPs, but they are more stable and provide a better glide.
Soft-top SUPs feature EVA foam covering. That is considered more comfortable than the surfaces of a fiberglass board. These boards are lightweight and generally more affordable than a fiberglass hard paddle board. The soft EVA surface of a soft-top paddleboard provides a softer surface. These boards also tend to be a bit wider for stability, making it a good choice for beginners. Soft-top boards are also a good choice for those who choose to do SUP Yoga. People who paddle with pets also like the soft-top board because it gives their pets a better, less slippery surface to stand on.
