RAVE Sports Performance 3 Piece Aluminum SUP Paddle - Manual (Page 8)

How & Where to Stand on Your SUP Board
Start by climbing on the center of the board with your knees placed
on either side of the handhold facing towards the nose of the board.
Once comfortable you may stand by placing both hands on the
board, then lifting one leg after another until upright.
Finally make sure your feet are placed directly on either side of the
handhold, spread out a bit wider than shoulder width.
Using the Board
• Start on your knees and push up to feet while centered on the board.
• Feet should be shoulder width apart with slightly bent knees.
• Face forward with shoulders back.
• Reach over with your top hand to keep paddle as vertical as possible
and use short, straight strokes along the side of the board. Look
forward, not down.
• With practice, you will be able to take many strokes on the same side
of the board before switching to the other side.
• NOTE: Stability is increased when paddling. Paddle through chop and
waves for more control.
• To turn on the SUP board, paddle on the opposite side you desire to
turn. Use outward sweeping motion to turn quicker.
