Already learned the basics? Take the next step and build on your existing SUP skills. Our advanced stand up paddleboarding skills course teaches you skills and knowledge to safely paddle inland waterways with wind and waves. Skills covered include pivot turns, draw strokes, foot positions, upwind and downwind paddling, edging, bracing, and more!
Paddlers will be awarded with the Paddle Canada Advanced SUP Certification, which prepares you for our other SUP skills courses, such as our introduction to river SUP skills course. This course is also a great refresher for anyone taking our flatwater SUP instructor course.
