Downwind paddleboards

Downwind

— sup boards well suited for downwind riding. This is how they call travel away from the coast with a good tailwind and excitement: “having caught a wave”, you can move through the water with minimal effort, using the energy of the wind and waves and only periodically helping yourself with an oar. In part, downwind is similar to surfing, but it is not as extreme, it is used at low wave heights, and the movement takes place on a strictly predetermined course, from one destination to another. Therefore, models suitable for such skating are found mainly among touring and sports boards: they have a small width and hold speed well, and relatively low manoeuvrability in this case is not a disadvantage — on the contrary, due to this feature, stability on the course is ensured.
