About Us

We are based in the small market town of Llanidloes located in the rolling hills of mid Wales. We are incredibly lucky to operate on the stunning waters of Llyn Clywedog Reservoir, a six mile lake nestled amongst the Hafren forest. For us, stand up paddle boarding is more than a business, it is our passion.  We love to be on the water on our boards and introducing people to the sport of paddle boarding. It is our mission to promote the sport and the massive heath and wellbeing benefits that come with it.  Paddle boarding is a sport that can be enjoyed by anyone. It can range from a peaceful paddle on a tranquil canal observing the wild life to adrenalin fuelled SUP surfing at the coast, or multi day paddle adventures on lazy rivers with like minded people. There really is something for everyone. 


Why Choose Us

Tours 

We love to be on the water at the lake teaching but for us SUP tours are what we love the most. There is nothing like getting on your board on a beautiful day and heading down a lazy river, canal or estuary taking in the wild life and scenery. We also offer coastal tours on our stunning coast lines that take us past a large seal colony, they often like to tag along. We are currently planning some multi day trips to France and Croatia, along with our half day and day trips in this country on various rivers and canals.  We have just got our 2021 touring SUP range from SIC Maui and we cant wait to get clients on these truly fantastic boards. 

Tuition 

We offer a wide range of tuition from a 2 hour ready to ride introduction to paddle boarding that includes:
  • A run down of the right kit and equipment; 
  • Weather conditions, water and environment;
  • Board and paddle skills, stance, board trim and turning;
  •  Safety and self rescue.;
  • Intro to SUP touring.  

For the more experienced paddles we can set goals with you to improve you technique and general water safety. 

It is our goal to provide you with the skills you need so you can enjoy paddle boarding safely. 

SUP Group 

I am so happy to announce that this season we will be starting SUP group for the local community. SUP group will be a weekly paddle and social for sailing and paddle sports members to come and try paddle boarding and have a social evening with other paddlers. If you have your own board bring it along otherwise we can provide you with the boards and equipment for a small donation  (which will go towards the purchase of more great equipment for the group in the future). 

So if you are looking for a reason to get on the water this year and you fancy trying paddle boarding we can't wait to get you on the water with us at SUP group, all ages all levels welcome. Children must be accompanied by a parent.
