The good effects of stand up paddle boarding
<a href="http://www.electric-supboard.com/stand-up-paddle-board/"
target="_self">Stand up paddle boarding (SUP) originated in Hawaii in the
50's and is a mixture of both surfing and paddling. It is an emerging
recreational activity which has attracted attention for its proposed fitness,
strength and balance benefits. Anecdotally, SUP is thought to be a beneficial
clinical training tool as it possesses many facets of an ideal rehabilitative
exercise. However our recent review of the literature has identified minimal
scientific evidence to substantiate the proposed benefits. Stand Up
Paddleboarding is the world’s fastest-growing water sport,
and has gained immense popularity in the past 2
years. Why? Paddle boarding is a fun way to be
close to nature with the added benefits of a full-
body workout, meditation and also socialization. SUP is
a low-impact sport and with wide board versatility,
makes it a good sport for everyone to enjoy, no
matter your skill level, where you are or what type
of paddleboarding you’d like to do. Stand up paddle
boarding (SUP) is a rapidly growing sport and recreational activity where
anecdotal evidence exists for its proposed health, fitness and injury
rehabilitation benefits. While limited scientific evidence exists to
substantiate these claims, previous studies have shown that high levels of
fitness, strength and balance exists amongst participants of this sport. One
of the major attractions of SUP is that it is thought to a good fitness
training tool. Physical activity is well understood to increase cardiovascular
fitness which is associated with cardiovascular mortality. Physical inactivity
is a major modifiable risk factor of a range of non‐communicable diseases such
as diabetes mellitus, osteoporosis and some forms of cancer. Physical activity
significantly improves overall health, lowers the risk of heart disease by 40
%, stroke by 27 % and lowers the incidence of hypertension by almost 50
% . Physical activity has also been associated with improved mental health and
well‐being, minimizing the risk of developing Alzheimer’s and depression.
Our prior research has demonstrated that high levels of aerobic and
anaerobic fitness, core strength and balance are possessed by those classed as
elite amongst this sport. Given the issue of sedentary behaviour and limited
scientific research on SUP regarding the anecdotal claims of benefit of this
activity, our intention was to assess the benefit of SUP on a group of
sedentary, untrained individuals with respect to fitness, strength, balance and
self-rated quality of life.
How do Raft Foundations work?
Raft,
simplest type of watercraft, made up of logs or planks fastened together to
form a floating platform. The earliest were sometimes made of bundles of
reeds. Most rafts have been designed simply to float with the current, but
they can be equipped with oars or sails or both and can be navigated in the
ocean over long distances, as was dramatically demonstrated by Norwegian
scientist Thor Heyerdahl in 1947; to test his theory that the Pacific
islands might have been settled by people from South America, he sailed a
large balsa raft, the Kon-Tiki, from Peru to islands near Tahiti in
a voyage of three and a half months. The double-hulled catamarans of
India are also seaworthy rafts. A raft foundation spreads the weight of the
building over the whole ground floor area of that building. The raft is laid on
a hardcore, or scalping bed and usually thickened at the edges, especially in
very poor ground. Rafts are most suitable when the ground is of good load
bearing capacity and little work is required to get a solid foundation.
Raft Foundations are built is this following steps:

<span style="font-family: sans-serif;
font-size: 16px;">Other reasons that make raft foundations preferable to
footings are due to their engineering benefits. They are ideal for poor ground
condition where normal footings would not cope well as they cannot spread the
load as effectively. Related to this is that raft foundations can reduce
differential settlement, where settlement occurs at different rates across the
ground surface of the building, which reduces cracking and other more serious
problems. The main disadvantage is that they can prone to edge erosion if they
are not treated properly. They are not effective is the load of the building is
going to be focused on a single point, although this is rare in domestic
construction, so this isn’t generally of concern.
A Guide to electric SUP Pumps
Are you looking for an inflatable SUP pump and ready to graduate to
an electric one? We know, hand pumping an inflatable paddle board gets
old over time. If you want to get out on the water quickly and efficiently, you
’ll appreciate the convenience of an electric pump. An<a
href="http://www.electric-supboard.com/sup/isup/electric-isup.html"
target="_self"> electric paddle board pump will inflate your paddle
board for you within minutes. All you have to do is push a button and the pump
will do all the work for you. Sounds nice, right? Below, we discuss the best
inflatable SUP electric pumps on the market. The biggest advantage of using
an electric pump is to save time. If you use your inflatable SUP board
frequently, the extra minutes and energy it takes you to hand pump will add up.
An electric pump can make a difference of being in the water within minutes
versus a half hour or more. The best inflatable electric SUP pumps
will have enough power to inflate your paddle board to its suggested PSI (13-17
PSI) in 5- 10 minutes. In addition, the best electric pumps will offer multiple
power sources for hook up and other bells & whistles to enhance your
pumping experience. ISLE 12V Electric Pump is the best and most
affordable electric pump on the market. This electric pump is equipped with a
two-stage turbine, inflating your paddle board in under five minutes and has a
max pressure of a whopping 20 PSI. There are two ways you can hook up the 12V
Electric Pump to your car. 1) Your car’s cigarette lighter. 2) Your car
battery. The cigarette lighter is the easiest option, but some car’s do not
have this option leaving you to hook it up to your car battery with cables
provided in the box. The 12V Electric Pump has a digital pressure selector to
choose the exact PSI you want your inflatable SUP pumped up to. As the 12V
Electric Pump inflates your paddle board, the digital screen on the pump will
show exactly what PSI your board is at until it reaches the PSI you have
chosen. This is a great feature to be able to gauge the progress of your board
being pumped up. Once your pump reaches the PSI you have chosen, it will
automatically turn off. This is another useful feature because this will show
you that your board is ready to go and avoids over inflating your board. This
inflatable SUP pump is compatible with all Halkey-Roberts and Bravo valves
which means this pump can be used on just about any inflatable SUP available on
the market. However, if your inflatable SUP does not have these valves, the 12V
Electric Pump comes with five universal adapters to fit your SUP.

the motorization in the paddling area will prevail and become a similar
revolution, as in other sports.
The Difference Between Inflatables and Hard Paddle Boards
Hardboards
tend to be faster, offer better glide, and tend to maintain momentum better
than inflatables. This is because the vast majority of inflatable boards tend
to have fat planing hulls that maintain the same level of thickness from nose
to tail. Keep in mind that you will need to inflate and deflate your
inflatable before and after you go paddling. If you’re more of a load and go
type of person, a hard paddle board will be your best friend. When
purchasing a hard paddle board, you need to consider where you will be storing
it during SUP season and the off season. Yes, you could store it in your
garage, but you still need make sure you have plenty of clearance and room to
maneuver your board (9 to 12 feet long) in and out of your home. Hard paddle
boards are the best option if you plan to use your paddle board for SUP
surfing, SUP racing, or long-distance expeditions.We did a speed test between
inflatables and hard paddle boards and found that hard paddle boards were 5%
faster than inflatables.
