Paddle Boarding Around Denver


 
 
Still a relatively new outdoor watersport for Colorado is stand-up paddle boarding (also known as SUP). There are numerous places to rent your own board or to take lessons. Some companies even offer SUP Yoga.
You can start out on your knees or on your bum...and then as you feel comfortable can progress to a standing position while paddling.
 
Like all water sports...have fun and be safe!
