How to

- Autumn is still a good time for SUP, as there are often still sunny days and relatively mild water and air temperatures.  
- Clothing: from dry suits and neoprene shoes to shorts with a warm top; always carry a change of clothes in a waterproof bag.  
- Important safety tips: get on the board without getting wet; only use a leash on lakes; choose sunny routes; be aware of the wind; and paddle during the warmest part of the day.

Paddling in autumn: SUP tips for the best way to round off the season

- Inflatable SUPs are light, cheap, easy to transport, suitable for families, versatile, but somewhat less powerful and less durable.
- Hardboards are faster, more durable, more stable and ideal for waves and sporty touring, but are more expensive, heavier and require more storage and transport.
- For families and all-round use, iSUPs are more suitable; for sporty touring on the lake/sea, hardboards offer more efficiency but require more logistics.

- A female surfer builds her own mini Malibu surfboard over four weekends – from the CAD design and CNC milling right through to the final finishing touches.  
- The cost is around 490 euros, including the blank, milling, epoxy resin, fibreglass, fin boxes, accessories and around 50 euros for delivery from England.  
- Building it yourself requires tools, patience and six stages of work, ranging from design, sanding, inserts, decoration and lamination to the sanded hotcoat.

- In hot weather, keep an eye on the water temperature, use a leash in still waters, and make sure you always have sun protection, a hat and drinking water to hand.  
- Do not store inflatable SUPs when inflated in direct sunlight, in a car or on the beach, as heat increases pressure and can cause them to warp or burst.  
- UV radiation causes materials to fade; store your board in the shade where possible and reduce the air pressure slightly to prevent the adhesive joints from being damaged by the heat.

- A leash increases safety on lakes, calm waters, in windy or cold conditions, in winter and in waves, when losing your board would be risky.
- In rivers with a current, white water, near weirs or where there are many obstacles, a foot leash can be life-threatening.
- A hip leash with a quick-release is safer in currents, whilst foot leashes and coil leashes are particularly suitable for lakes, touring and SUP surfing.
