Although it may not seem so, spring is here! Days are larger than the last months and as soon as possible we will be enjoying the sun and the warm temperatures of this season. Sure that you are crazy for going to do Stand Up Paddle!

This season of the year is ideal to start with the practice of SUP, maybe you think summer is the best one, when you can go to the beach and mix baths in the sea with SUP sessions, blending sport and fun, but if you are a Stand Up Paddle lover you have felt that summer, especially in the south, is too hot for long SUP sessions, that's the reason why we think spring is the better time of the year to plan a SUP trip. 

Fans of the touring paddlesurf find these months from March to June fantastic to paddle a lot of kilometers discovering new places and awesome sceneries. We dedicated this post to them, and to everyone who wants to discover another variety of SUP. We propose some ideas to enjoy more of the SUP boards for touring and make the best use of them along the Spring.

You got a fixed SUP paddle and don't know what to do? Don't worry, in this post we will walk you through all the steps and necessary material for cutting and putting your SUP paddle back together. Before cutting, you need to find out what the correct size is, so we recommend that you first read our post on how to adjust your paddle's length.

A piece of advice: if you are still not sure of the right size for you, cut it a bit longer than you normally would and try it out without attaching the handle, so you can still adjust the size and cut it again if necessary to reach the ideal length.

Practicing SUP depends on one essential and basic element, the SUP Paddle. Without it, Paddle Surf becomes simply Surf, which is a whole different sport. Nonetheless, the way to adjust a SUP Paddle will depend on the style we practice, our physical features and the board we use. The most important elements when adjusting the length and size of a paddle are the handle length and the blade size.
