SUP with kids

We can start the first attempts to swim with a child from an early age. However, it all depends on the will of the child. We must remember that especially small children have a problem with staying in one place for more than a few minutes, and therefore the best way is to start swimming close to the land, so that you can quickly and safely transport the child to the shore in case the board gets too boring.

As a child becomes more familiar with the board and gets used to it, you can try longer routes, which will translate into greater interest and learning about new opportunities for the child. Swimming together can also be used to learn and explain to the child how it all works, what to pay attention to, how to use a paddle, and what to do to keep this sport safe.

You must always remember to take care of the child’s safety. Essentials include a cream with a UV filter (in warm and sunny weather), a vest and a leash.

For our young riders there is now a MOAI board especially designed for them. Because MOAI always thinks of everyone! Provided with single layer technology which makes the board lighter and environmentally friendly. The ideal SUP for the enthusiastic young adult at 60 kg max.

The board is very stable and easy to turn in the water because of its shape. Light in weight and therefore very portable for kids. It will be easy to carry it to any location. Let’s have some fun and create new adventures! At MOAI, we want to make sure our customers have the best possible experience. Each board is standard provided as a package with all necessary accessories to hit the water out of the box. 

We really like Single Layer Technology. All of the construction methods start with the dropstitch; thousands of internal threads between the two dropstitch layers which when filled with air allow the board to only expand to a certain point before pull tight and form the rigid SUP’s shape. 

When you go out with the children to the water, it’s normal to take more bags, that is: extra towels, a change of clothes, sweatshirts as if it were to cool down. More snacks, etc. Blankets are also a nice option because kids like to sleep on SUPs. Therefore, capacious drybags are an indispensable piece of equipment, that’s why we recommend our drybags because you can choose between a few sizes and colors! 

We did many tests before creating the final product. Thanks to this, we are sure that our Kids Board is perfect, light and durable. Interesting design will surely appeal to every young lover of stand up paddleboarding.
