Take a look: SUP Magazine 1/2023 is here - these topics await you in the magazine!

It's been relatively cold here for a long time, but now spring is slowly coming round the corner. Just the right time to finally get back on the SUP and make the first paddle strokes of the year. We've been out on the water in the toughest conditions and have tested numerous boards and paddles for the new SUP magazine. We also show you some great tours and lots of exciting tips about SUP in the new magazine!

Using four new paddles as examples, we show you how you can save up to 300 euros with just a few compromises. The SUP testers have also put together their top 10 paddles - with normal and thin tube diameters!

From the completely rethought sport tourer concept to compact boards, from hardboards to iSUPs: we have tested special SUPs from all classes. Each one is a speciality and remarkable in its own right.

Travelling and tours with the SUP can be very different: from a river tour in the Oberpflanz or a city tour through Lübeck canals to a circumnavigation of the Greek island of Lefkas to a crossing of the Alps by bike and SUP or a tour in the Danish South Sea, we show exciting travel reports. A special highlight is the photo story from Greenland - paddling in the eternal ice!

• How iSUPs are repaired
• Paddling correctly - basic paddling technique on the SUP
• Interview with Indiana boss Maurus Strobel
• First aid kit for paddlers - a must-have
• How much pressure does the board really need?
• Fit for SUP: Exercises for paddlers
