Are you new to stand up paddle boarding?
There are so many tricks you can try. Here
are five stand up paddle boarding tips and
tricks you should definitely learn.
Stand up paddle boarding has become
very popular in recent years because of
how fun it is to learn. If you are new to this
water activity, there are a lot of tricks you
can learn to make the best out of it. Here
are some tips for paddle boarding in the
ocean you should definitely try next time
you go paddle boarding.
Stand up paddle boarding has become a
popular pastime in recent years. Many
people want to learn how to use a paddle
board because it's such a versatile water
activity. Whether you are at the beach or in
a river, as long as you have a paddle board,
you're sure to have a great time. 
If you want to level up your water
experience, here are five easy paddle board
tricks you should try on your next paddle
boarding trip. 
1. Pivot 360 
One of the simplest paddle boarding tricks,
Pivot 360 is very easy especially if you can
already turn 180 degrees. All you have to
do is keep turning until you do a full 360
turn. 
 The secret to successfully doing this trick
is to make your sweep stroke wider, faster,
and more powerful. Combine it with a
high nose ride on your board, and you will
impress your family and friends with an
effortless trick. 
2. One-footed Paddling.
This trick is very easy to learn because you
can use the stand up paddle board as a kind of
crutch. The hard part is recovering for your
next stroke and keeping your balance. In
order to avoid falling off the paddle board,
keep your head up and try to maintain your
balance using your hands. 
3. Paddling Backwards First.
If you find it easy to paddle forwards, you will
surely enjoy this next stand up paddle
boarding tip. All you have to do is paddle
backwards first. 
With this trick you can expect the nose of your
board to be a bit slippery because it does not
have a deck grip at the back, but it is easier to
do than you'd think. 
4. Paddling Upside Down.
This trick is definitely not an easy one, but
it is simple and fun. All you have to do is
turn your paddle board upside down and
paddle it with its fin up. 
Be aware that you will not have anything to
grip when you do this trick and there is a
good chance that you will slip, but it will
surely give you and your friends a good
laugh afterwards. 
There are a few ways to flip your board. You
can rock it over while you are in the water
next to it, or you can try paddling it, do a kick
flip with your full weight in the rail, and turn
it upside down with a good landing.
Although this can be really tricky, it will be
fun to try with your family and friends. 
5. Nose Sink Pivot Turn 
The last trick on this list is the nose sink
pivot turn. This trick is simply pivoting your
paddle board, but instead of pivoting from
the tail, you sink the nose of your board and
try to pivot from there. It is almost like a
skateboard trick, but instead of doing it on
land, you do it on water with no air time. 
Safety Tips Before Learning Any Paddle
Board Tricks 
Learning all these tricks can be really
exciting, but keep in mind that safety always
comes first. Here are some safety tips to
remember: 
Use a leash: 
Always prioritize the use of a leash when
doing any kind of water sport. When you
paddle board, never forget to wear a leash
because it can become a life-saving device
when you lose control or fall off the board.
Choose the right gear: 
Like any kind of sport, having the right gear
is needed to experience overall enjoyment
and safety. 
Before you start paddle boarding, make sure
that you have the right gear that suits your
skill level and the environment you plan to
paddle in.
Keep your head up:
In order to keep from falling, it is
important to look straight ahead and keep
your head up at all times. 
Although it may be natural to look down
because you are worried you might fall off
the paddle, keep in mind that standing
straight is the best way to maintain your
balance. You need to achieve maximum
stability, and if you look down, you will
lose your balance.
Ride waves you can handle:
Risking your safety for the sake of fun is
never the way to go when paddle boarding.
Especially if you are still learning how to
use a paddle board, be mindful of water
conditions before you go in the water.
Start with small waves until your body gets
used to it, and when you gain more
experience, you can try bigger and rougher
waves.
