A stand-up paddle board (SUP) is a large, flat board designed for standing paddlers who use a long paddle to propel themselves across the water. SUPs are highly versatile and can be used for a range of activities, from leisurely paddling on calm waters to catching waves or even practising yoga. Fatyak’s SAMOS SUPs are built to combine stability, performance, and durability, making them an excellent choice for paddlers of all abilities.

You can paddle board in a variety of locations, including lakes, rivers, canals, and the sea. Calm, sheltered waters are ideal for beginners, while experienced paddlers may enjoy tackling waves or exploring remote waterways. In the UK, many popular paddle-boarding destinations include national parks, coastal areas, and scenic rivers. Fatyak’s SAMOS SUPs are designed to handle diverse conditions, giving you the freedom to explore wherever your sense of adventure takes you.

In the UK, a licence may be required to paddle board on certain rivers, canals, and inland waterways. You can obtain a licence through British Canoeing or the Canal & River Trust, which often cover multiple locations. However, paddle boarding in the sea or on many lakes does not typically require a licence. Always check the specific regulations for the area you plan to paddle in to ensure compliance and a safe experience.

Yes, you can! Fatyak’s SAMOS SUPs are crafted using marine-recycled plastics collected through our Net and Marine Regeneration schemes. By choosing a Fatyak SUP, you’re actively supporting efforts to reduce ocean waste and contribute to a circular economy. Our SUPs are durable, stylish, and eco-friendly, allowing you to enjoy the water while helping to protect it for future generations.

The choice between an inflatable and a hard SUP depends on your needs. Inflatable SUPs are lightweight, portable, and easy to store, making them a great option for those with limited space or who travel frequently. Hard SUPs offer superior stability, durability, and performance, especially in more challenging conditions. If you’re looking for a long-lasting, eco-conscious option that performs exceptionally well on a range of waterways, a hard SUP from Fatyak is the ideal choice.
