When coming West Lake in Hanoi, Vietnam,
visitors will admire the
charming scenery and have opportunity to join Stand Up Paddle boarding – a
water sport originated from Hawaii and imported into Viet Nam for about 3
years.
Stand Up Paddle or SUP boat is is a board
made of wood, mica or rubber. But in Viet Nam, it is made of synthetic plastic
with high elasticity equipped with an inflatable hole on its above side, a
removable steering wheel and a safety cable on the back. The 3.5m – 4m-long
boat is enclosed a 2m-long paddle and a lifejacket.
To play this sport, players must to pump the
boat according to the signal of piezometre in the pump; then wear the
lifejacket and fasten the safety cable on their foot. When rowing the boat,
first players should sit, then kneel and stand gradually. Due to the lifejacket
and safety cable, players are safe when falling the water.
SUP is similar to canoing or kayaking but it
is easier to practice. Players can stand, sit, kneel and play freely on the
boat as well as participate in group games.The ideal time for SUP is the late
afternoon. Currently, Umove SUP Club provides SUP boat service every Saturdays
and Sundays.
