Stand–up paddle surfing, known as SUP, is a sport that has enjoyed a rebirth in recent years. Utilizing a paddle that is specifically designed for SUP, surfers maintain an upright position while paddling out to the lineup, paddling into the waves, and then surfing them to shore. The paddle is not only a tool for navigating the lineup, but is also critically employed throughout the surfer’s maneuvers on the wave.

Use of paddle is part of the judging criteria. All contest rules and regulations will be posted at the event site. Medals will be awarded for 1 st thru 6 th.
