Buy SUP Accessories - Cool Gadgets for Stand Up Paddlers
A stand-up paddleboard and a suitable SUP paddle are the basic equipment you need to complete your first stand-up paddling tours.
In addition, there is also plenty of SUP accessories and cool gadgets that we would like to introduce to you today. We take some of them with us on every SUP tour and can no longer do without them.
SUP Accessories - The drybag protects your valuables
On longer SUP tours, you will ask yourself where you can store your valuables safely and securely. We simply take our camera, keys and smartphone with us and store our valuables in our waterproof drybag, which we transport on the SUP board. Even if the drybag should fall into the water while paddling, it doesn't matter, because it is absolutely waterproof and floats on the surface of the water.
In addition to valuables, you can of course also transport food, drinks or a change of clothes in the drybag, turning an afternoon excursion into a whole weekend tour with your SUP. The 25-liter drybag is an indispensable SUP accessory for us and comes with us on every tour. The two optional carrying straps also allow you to use the drybag as a backpack for beach excursions.
SUP Accessories - Waterproof smartphone case
You naturally want to capture the best moments of your SUP tour with your smartphone. You can ideally protect your smartphone from water in the drybag, but if you use the waterproof case, you can hang your smartphone around your neck at any time and have it quickly at hand to take snapshots and great photos. Our waterproof phone cases are even waterproof up to 30 meters deep!
SUP Accessories - The Safety SUP Leash for your safety
A safety SUP leash is essential if you are often on different waters. If you fall off the board, your SUP board cannot drift away and is always close to you. Please note that you need different leashes for different waters; this applies if you want to use your SUP board in the waves, for example.
SUP Accessories - Electric SUP pump
We love SUP tours very early in the morning in summer, but let's be honest: at six in the morning, pumping up is quite strenuous. That's why we prefer to use the electric SUP pump for these situations or when we're with several people, which you can easily connect to the car battery. Your SUP is pumped up in just a few minutes and you can already get on the water! If you are traveling without a car, there is also a powerful battery for the electric pump that stores enough power to pump up your SUP board 15 times!
SUP Accessories - The bag for your paddle
We love our carbon SUP paddles and therefore always keep them well protected in the paddle bag. Especially when transporting it in the car or when traveling, you expose the carbon paddle to many dangers and
therefore you should transport it well packed.
SUP Accessories – The Kayak Seat
You can use your Stand Up Paddle Board not only for paddling while standing, but also as a kayak. For this, you need a kayak seat and a double paddle. The kayak seat is attached to 4 D-rings on the board with carabiners, and then you can paddle while sitting. Both the Glory Boards Cross, Trip, and Fun models feature D-rings for attaching the kayak seat. Some individuals with back problems cannot paddle standing for long periods, so the kayak seat is an excellent way to paddle comfortably while seated. The kayak seat is also very well suited for fishing in conjunction with an SUP board, allowing you to fish while sitting. You can get the Glory Boards kayak seat in a set with a paddle blade.
If your stand-up paddle board does not have D-rings, you can retrofit them.
SUP Accessories – The Double Paddle for Kayak SUP Seat
If you want to use your Stand Up Paddle Board as a kayak, you will need a double paddle in addition to the kayak seat. Our kayak seat comes with a second paddle blade so you can use the SUP board while sitting.
SUP Accessories – The Honeycomb Fin
Brand new is the Glory Boards Honeycomb SUP Fin, which acts like a tuning upgrade for your Stand Up Paddle Board. By using this SUP fin, you will further enhance straight-line tracking, reduce lateral drag, and have even more fun on long SUP tours! The honeycomb construction gives this SUP fin increased stiffness.
We particularly recommend this SUP fin for touring and race boards. The Honeycomb fin is suitable for all SUP boards with slide-in fin boxes and can be mounted without tools.
With these SUP accessories and gadgets, you are perfectly equipped for your next SUP tour. Which SUP accessories are essential for you and have become indispensable? For more information and questions about our SUP accessory range, just contact us by email!
