In recent years, stand up paddle has made a comeback in the world of outdoor sports. More commonly known by its acronym, SUP, this water activity, akin to surfing but requiring a paddle, originated in Polynesia, where it was practiced for centuries before being revived in the mid-20th century to become the sport we know today. Many manufacturers have capitalised on this trend, competing creatively to develop quality paddle boards. This is particularly true for the French brand Bic Sport, which launched its famous Bic SUP and has successfully captured the glide sports market with innovative products tailored to various practices. Indeed, Bic Stand Up Paddle boards are suitable for leisurely strolls, racing, or river descents. Learning to handle your Bic SUP also means learning to become one with your board, to balance on it, and to let nature carry you! Since it involves balance and concentration, you can also practice yoga on your bic paddle or use it as a surfboard. Bic SUP offers an extensive range of paddle boards and paddle paddles that will allow you to progress at your own pace, discover new horizons, and share beautiful moments with family. Dive in and explore our Bic SUP products; they are waiting for you!
Choosing your paddle board can sometimes feel impossible given the multitude of models and manufacturers available. The first thing you should keep in mind is the type of use you wish to prioritise with your paddle board. Some boards are better suited for leisurely paddles on flat water, while others are wider and more stable, making yoga practice easier. Finally, some are best for surfing small waves. The strength of Bic SUP lies in the versatility of the boards offered and their durability. Opting for a Bic SUP board means betting on French manufacturing and cutting-edge technologies that make the brand an international reference. Among the innovations offered by Bic SUP, we can mention the use of aluminium shells injected with polystyrene. By prioritising these materials, the French brand has managed to eliminate the use of polyurethane. Additionally, Bic SUP covers its paddle boards with a thermoformed composite glass fibre material that ensures high shock resistance and extraordinary robustness. You will understand, Bic SUP boards are made to last! The SUP Bic boards are also accessible, allowing you to discover the joys of Stand Up Paddle at a lower cost while enjoying quality products. Bic SUP offers rigid boards as well as a selection of inflatable paddles that are ideal for beginners.
If you want to discover Stand Up Paddle or have been paddling on flat water for a long time, the 11'0" Wing Air from Bic SUP is made for you. Its shapes are sleeker than other models from the brand, making it perform well against chop. Although it is an inflatable paddle, this Bic Stand Up Paddle is stiffer than other models as it features a lower stringer made of Dyneema. It belongs to the SUP AIR SERIES created by Bic Sport, which allows inflatable boards to display performance close to that of a rigid board. The construction of the SUP Bic enhances its robustness and lightness, making it easier to transport.
