- Testing out my New Takuma Rise 8'6 120L DW Board
My first time giving flat water a go and paddling around on a SUP.
Safe to say I paddle in circles and need to get a new paddle :)
Always Learning and let me know your tips to get me up !!!

Paddling on the opposite side is a must. You talked about changing the foil. That wing will fly you, no problem. If you watch the video, your nose never goes past neutral. If you think about what the foil has to do to fly, it needs to have the rise and then glide (nose pointed down). Your body currently stays behind the point to get the nose down to glide. Review your video, watch how the nose never dips down. This is super important to build speed. At the perfect timing and rythmn, your body needs to rocker back and forward to get the board to rise and glide. You got the rise part but are stalling the building of speed by never allowing the "glide". Think about it as jumping and getting both heels off the board (front heel will probably not leave the board because the nose is rising), but the heels need to leave because you are lounging forward.) Most important is to reach way forward with the paddle. It does 2 things. Gets your C of G over and past your front foot (pivot point) and gets you a bigger catch of water. When you have it right, the back end of the board will explode out of the water, you will see the entire board rise out of the water flatter and your nose will past neutral as you gain speed. Stay with it, there are a few milestones that you will need to pass yet. Flat water paddle up is a long game. Very rewarding though...
Wow thanks so much for all the help I love the YT community.
I'm keen to give the flat water paddle ups another go now!!
Thank you
Great effort! You'll ge much more umph paddling on the other side. I cant wait to try it myself🤙🤙
Hahaha Yes Thanks for the help I cant believe I was paddling like this haha
Strange paddling technique. I've tried the takuma II 1400 with a dragonfly 110L and I couldn't lift either.
Hahah I know no where I went wrong haha Paddling on the heel side is not good hahaha
I think I'm going to give it another go with propper paddle and paddle on my open side :) stay tunes for session 2 haha
Very inspiring...maybe try paddling from heal side, also only have plastic fantastic.
Thanks for the tip!
paddling on the wrong side! good effort
lol that the first thing every one is saying. hahaha I had no clue !!! Thanks for the Tip !!
@@jaybutton_plz haha no worries! with a better paddle technique and some practice you'll soon get it, even with the flexy paddle you were getting some foil lift there which is all you need and more than I got for ages
Did you manage to get up on flat water?
I have not yet haha I need to put some more time back into the SUP !!! I will make a video next time I try
