In part 3 Will talks you through the kit you should consider taking on your SUP adventure. Everything from safety kit, spares, on and off the water clothing, camp kit, cooking equipment and how best to pack it all so it stays dry and easily within reach. Whether you're planning a longer 1 day exploratory paddle or multiple days paddling to help ensure both your safety and comfort, it's just as important to consider what you take with you on your board as much as the board itself.

It's a copy and paste approach to my SUP Touring Expeditions. Everyone interested with no experience should apply these advices. Good job.
Glad you apply these tips to your paddling. Hope you have some good expeditions planned for the near future! Thanks, Beau
I completed a 79 day solo journey this summer around the outside of Vancouver island, Canada. This is an informative video, i've heard so many ill fated trips due to varying reasons. good job !! great advice.
Wow, thats a long trip! Well done and thanks for you feedback on the video - Will - SUPboarder

Thanks for this!! Priceless tip for many who are getting into adventure paddling. I think I've checked out most of it by now.. Had all necessary with us even though travelling to Scotland for Great Glen Challenge with our camper bus from Holland. Don't forget the waterproof camera to capture the incredible views!
SUPmission absolutely , the camera is a must!!! Thanks for watching :)
Great video as always :) ,
all i would add is, spare fins are great, but on longer multi day paddles i'll have a few spare fin bolts,
and i always carry a spare one when ever paddling.
If you're carrying your pump on the board, either tape up the hose connection, or Remember to empty it Before Use.
kit bag - aqua pac 70L duffle, easy to get to all my kit, has an air release valve, and backpack straps too.
Thanks Jonny - yes, we agree with your suggestions completely. Great tip on the pump! No one wants to pump water into their iSUP ;)

Being a newbie to SUB boarding, but experienced in the out doors this is a great well thought out video. Thank you for sharing it. :-)
Welcome aboard!
Nice Very Nice
Great tips and rules 👍👍
Glad it was helpful!
The spare fin recommendation is HUGE - especially if you are travelling far and/or in gnarly conditions. Just got back from a long tour in Desolation Sound, British Columbia and had a fin unexpectedly knocked off in big waves on day 3 when we were over 25kms from exit point. With some bad wind/weather rolling in that would have been challenging with a complete board, I was screwed. Waves were over 3/4 of a metre with a 15kt headwind and my board was completely useless without a fin in those conditions - definitely a roller coaster ride. I had planned for all other eventualities (extra paddle, pump, etc), but completely blanked on packing my spare fin. After exhausting our other options, we were fortunate enough to catch a lift to exit on a passing sailboat. Not going to make the same mistake again.
Wow.. sounds like a bit of adventure and definitely a spare fin is a must. Will our touring expert, is always going on about taking the spare fin. I'm glad it was all safe and worked out for you in the end. The adventure does sound amazing. Thanks Reuben
Hey Jamie - the adventure sounds great and yep, a spare fin is often overlooked. Doesnt take much to trash one when you don't expect! Happy Paddling, Will.
You can try the SUP with V-shaped bottom design
Great videos!!! Question? Where do you normally carry your pump? I see that it is sometimes exposed. What would happened if it gets wet? Any tips for carrying the pump?
Hi Juan, This is a GREAT question! Experience has taught me to carry my pump in a dry bag as if they get submerged they can fill with water and then you need to take it apart to get rid of all the water and prevent blowing water into the inside of the iSUP. So although in this video the pump is often exposed, I would recommend carrying in a dry tube :) Thanks for your question! Will - SUPboarder
Another great video thanks guys 😀 I’m just starting off with a few local trips and looking to get an overboard waist pack - what size do you guys use/recommend - the 2 or 4 litre? (I’m about same size as Will)
Hi Dafydd, great stuff! I use the 4 litre, but we do have the 2 as well here at HQ. For touring I find that the 4 has enough space for a few more bits and its soft material means it packs down super compact if not filled. Don't forget, If you are an I phone user, try GeoSUP to share your adventures :) Theres been a few people posting some cool trips on there in NZ. Cheers, Will - SUPboarder.
SUPboarder Hey Will, thanks for getting back to me - I’ll grab the 4L pack. I’ve already purchased the iPhone Geosup app - it looks great but haven’t logged anything yet - need the waterproof pack 😀 hope u’ve surviving lockdown ok - in New Zealand we’re finally allowed back on the water so will soon be SUPing again 🏄♂️👍😀
Btw - the lockdown training videos have also been awesome - cheers guys
curious your pros and cons of touring w. a hard or inflatable SUP; while river touring is likely always or more commonly on an inflatable around here in Michigan , I have not done any open water or coastal touring, or touring involving significant portages. And my concern w. an inflatable away from shore, loaded w/ gear, is it still only has one air chamber......leaks can be a real issue in that case. great video BTW,
Paul B we cover pros and cons of touring on iSUP vs. Inflatable in a separate video and in some SUPboarder PRO videos.... if you are heading away from shore on coastal paddles you must certainly think about the additional risks with your board construction choice as well as safety kit - thanks for watching :)
Hello, nice video! I have an off topic question: What kind of gopro mount do you have on the nose of SIC "Oceana" ? Thank you in advance.
Yeah you want a Gopro FCS mount gopro.com/en/gb/shop/mounts/surfboard-mounts/ASURF-001.html
@@SUPboardermag Oh , I see,I thought it was mounted to the leash plug via special mount. Thank you.
Hi there
It is a good idea the wetsuit for paddleboard?? I bought the paddel surf in decathlon and wetsuit 4/3... what do you thing? I am in Scotland, the weather here is crazy
Wetsuits can definitely be used when paddling, especially if you fall in a lot as they keep you warm in the water. But they can be uncomfortable for long periods of paddling. If you're not planning on falling in, look for more warm/wind protection clothing such as base layers, jackets and waterproof pants. Brands like Palm and Aztron produce some good options. Hope this helps.
Thanks, Beau
Great videos FYI this one is missing “Part 3” in the title.
Oh thanks!
Great! Now i know what i need!
Anton Kuzmin thanks, let us know if you have any further questions or queries!
A very good and informative video. Thank you for sharing it!
Thanks Rubiodiamante - glad you enjoyed it - where are you SUP touring?
Will - SUPboarder
@@SUPboardermag Hi! I SUP tour in Finland on the lakes and on the sea. Occasionally also on the rivers. I look forward to getting my new Red Voyager 13'2 soon.
@@Rubiodiamante thats great - The Red is a great touring board - have fun and don't forget to share your adventures and tours using GeoSUP Mobile App
@@SUPboardermag Thanks, I will begin using the GeoSUP. However, I will have to wait because I use an Android phone.
In regards to the VHF radio. Do you ever use it to communicate with other water users? or just for emergencies? I currently have a VHF but don't have the Short Range Certificate as they are expensive and I'm wondering how much benefit it would be as my VHF is only for emergencies at present
@@SUPboardermag Awesome thanks so much for the reply. I'm exited to get out on my SUP touring and adventuring. Il probably stick with not bothering with the SRC cert as I can't imagine I would talk to anyone. I never have in the kayak so I can't imagine its any different.
Have fun Josh 😀
how did you attached the camera in the nose of your board?
Sometimes on a accessory mount on the board - sometimes on a spare paddle that is help in position by the bags /bungee! Cheers, Will - SUPboarder
What board would you recommend for a single woman exploring my native Scottish lochs overnight stays. No one is interested so am doing it alone. Ths
Good to hear you are planning an adventure. Lets make it a good one so they will all want to come next time!
Inflatable or composite board? Size wise probably something around 14' x 28" is a good all round size.
Isups wont be as fast but they do make the whole logistics around this so much easier.
Theres loads of other touring content on our website, which Im sure will help supboardermag.com/what-are-you-interested-in/?_site_search=touring+ and also lots of touring stuff on our paid subscriptions SUPboarder Pro too.
Have a watch and let us know more questions via the 'Ask the Experts' on SUPboarder Pro or happy to answer a few questions on RUclips also. Thanks Reuben
