Apr 14 Social Instagram #SUP tip of the week: Keep your eyes on the horizon as you paddle. Many of us tend to focus on the board (or the Speedcoach) as we paddle, but it's important to get the head up and look ahead while paddling, and especially while racing and training. Here are a few reasons why: - Improved breathing. Try this: On land, bend forward at the waist, look straight down and take a deep breath. Now, without changing body position, lift your head and look forward. Take a deep breath -- if you're like most people, you'll find it much easier to take a deep breath while looking ahead. - Better tracking. If you're looking ahead, it's easier to ensure the paddle shaft is vertical, which improves your tracking. - Better navigation. If possible, pick a landmark or buoy and head for it. It sounds simple, but it's surprising how easy it is for us to drop our head and look at the board and suddenly find we're pointing off in a direction we never intended going. - Improved balance. Really. Many of our paddlers find they paddle right through the rough stuff if they just focus on the horizon and paddle right through it. Look down, and things get squirrelly. Look up, you slide right through the rough stuff -- try it! - Increased speed. We haven't done a formal study on this, but we find our paddlers can pick up considerably more speed when they keep the head up. Just by forgetting about the Speedcoach and looking ahead, we often see a 10% increase in speed, which is pretty significant. #gobecauseyoucan #SUP #paddleboard #standuppaddle #paddleboarding #stand_up_paddle #standuppaddleboard #gopro #nature #escapeyourcave #sunrise #sicmaui #SUPtraining #stand.up.paddle #rivieraSUP
