Here at Blue Planet we've taught thousands of people to Stand Up paddle through our free SUP clinics, and millions of people have watched our how to stand up paddleboardvideos on YouTube. This video is for people who've never stand up paddleboarded or maybe tried it once and realized it's not as easy as they thought it would be. So we're gonna go over board handling, paddle handling, and then safety. First of all you always want to make sure you're wearing your leash. Don't lift the board straight off the ground, lift it up away from you onto the rail first, so it's standing up on the rail then you can grab the carry handle and lift it up. Don't set the board on down too early, you want to make sure the fin behind you clears the sand. I'm going to put my knees on either side of the handle so I'm evenly over the center line of the board and then I'm gonna take a few strokes on my knees. Then I'm gonna put the paddle in front of me with my hands on the paddle. I'm gonna put my feet right where my knees were, stand up, keep the paddle in the water, look forward and start paddling. You don't want to get stuck in the position like this where you're leaning forward or looking down at the water. That's a very hard position to find your balance. Get your paddle in the water, stand up straight, your chest forward, look look at the horizon, and look at something stable, and then start paddling. For paddle handling, a lot of beginners hold the paddle backwards (which is this way) kind of thinking that intuitively they get more scoop on the water by holding it this way but what happens if you pull it here you can see I'm pulling the water up. So the correct way to hold the blade is angled forward, away from you, that way you get the most power from your stroke. Another mistake beginners make is to hold the paddle to high or when they switch sides hold it at different heights on one side than on the other side. So ideally you want to hold the paddle pretty far apart, That's about the grip height you should have. So another common mistake is making the stroke too far to the side away from the board and holding the paddle diagonally away from the board. If you paddle like this is going to make your board turn left and right. If you want your board to go forward, you want to hold your paddle vertically...

Lizzie Carr took up paddleboarding to get back in shape after undergoing treatment for cancer, and it wasn’t long before she became dismayed by all the plastic pollution she saw floating in England’s waterways. Soon enough, Lizzie was on plastic patrol, setting distance records in her sport—she’s the first person to paddle the length of England and the first woman to cross the English Channel on a paddleboard—all while picking up trash along the way and testing the water for micro-pollutants. Now she’s getting others involved, too.
