What to bring

Water sports experts knows what they needs. Beginners can use the list below for main equipment.

• Board: a river sup is best, but an allround board is fine (classically a 10'6"), better if with 3 low fins, so you can also do the river

• Paddle: better if sturdy

• Leash: no leash or river leash!

• PFD: a river pfd with quick release belt and with whistle

• Helmet for watersports use

• Full wetsuit or drysuit

• Boots: neoprene sturdy boots or light hike boots with socks

• Drybag for daily use

Rentals

Some allround and river boards (possibly with paddle, leash, pfd, helmet) are maybe available for rental, if booked well in advance before the meeting.
