C4 Waterman's video: Tips for Beginners learning SUP

Top tips for beginners in standup paddleboarding. The top tips I always tell people when I’m teaching them or just giving them advice is just relax, keep your knees bent, stand up straight and don’t forget to keep your feet about shoulders width apart, or whatever feels natural to you. When you are paddling, try and keep your top hand in front of your eyes or nose and keep those eyes on the horizon, don’t look down at your feet, because that’s where you might end up (if you look down at the water). Another part of learning is to go out consistently, but don’t try and race. Slow down, learn how to paddle yourself, engage your core, rotate, preserve your shoulders (and lower back) for many hours, days and years of paddling.
