I’m a 54m who is in very good shape, lift weights 4-5 times a week and trail run and do rucking for cardio 20 plus miles a week. I hiking, rucking, have done some kayaking and like to backpack. I’ve been reading up on SUP and I’m curious if it’s crazy difficult to learn to stand and paddle these boards? Or should I stick with kayaking? Any recommendations on boards? I have used a paddle north kayak before and liked it. Are their paddle boards worth it or would something else be better suited for a beginner? Any particular type or length of board better suited for a novice ? Thanks.

Question. Does anyone use or recommend using something like blue LOCTITE on the RTT mounting bolts so they are less likely to loosen up while driving ??

Ordered one in tan to try out. Found this a few days ago and they didn’t have my size in tan. Looked today and they had one left so I scooped it up fast. Now I wait for delivery. Anyone have one and like or dislike it ? Just curious. Web belt I wore in the Bataan in March tore up my hip under the rucks hip belt. Swapped it out for a softer one but it still digs in after many many miles. Starts getting to me around 14-15 miles into my long rucks. Figured I’d give this one a try. This doesn’t work. I’m gonna just try 550 cord 😂😂. I have tons of it laying around and I’ve see it used as a ruck belt before 😆

Lady cutting my hair starts a conversation about working out and next thing you know after I tell her about rucking 14-15 miles with a pack she’s asking me for recommendations for weight vests. Seems she’s also a massage therapist too and very into working out. So I was like. Well you can get one for a good price on go rucks website. She’s like huh? Gets out here phone and next thing you know she’s purchasing one for herself. 😆😂. Them she had to finish my hair cut 🙄
