We do provide PFD’s for paddle boarding. Your primary form of floatation support is your board. You need to be tethered to your board by the correct type of leash for the water and environment you are paddling in (we will explain about this during your first session), your buoyancy aid is your secondary form should anything happen and you end up bobbing about in the water without your board. As SUP grows as a sport we want to make sure everyone is safe, lots of people have a few sessions with us and then go on to buy their own kit. Getting used to wearing a Buoyancy aid is really important particularly with self rescues.
We do not provide buoyancy aids for surfing as it hinders the activity!
