It seems that one of the Ah Choy brothers (Bobby), one of the most famous beachboys of the time, had an idea to take pictures in the water and therefore closer to the action with a completely different and more realistic perspective. He borrowed an oar and paddling on a longboard arrived, without falling, near the break point, immortalizing the action for the first time from the water with a &nbsp;Kodak.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/360insport.com\/stand-up-paddling-la-storia\/\" class=\"button primary is-link\"  >\n    <span>curious? read more<\/span>\n  <i class=\"icon-angle-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\" ><\/i><\/a>\n\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_1926080356 {\n  padding-top: 50px;\n  padding-bottom: 50px;\n  background-color: #273647;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\t<div id=\"gap-479142129\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block; height:auto;\">\n\t\t\n<style>\n#gap-479142129 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\t<section class=\"section\" id=\"section_1362534412\">\n\t\t<div class=\"bg section-bg fill bg-fill  bg-loaded\" >\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\n\t\t<div class=\"section-content relative\">\n\t\t\t\n\n<h2 class=\"uppercase\">Stand Up Paddling &#8211; BENEFITS<\/h2>\n<p>SUP is a sport that offers numerous benefits, both physically and mentally.<\/p>\n<p>To maintain balance, all core muscles and abdominal muscles are activated. At the same time, the shoulder, biceps, triceps and trapezius muscles are activated to perform the paddling movement. During the practice of stand up paddle also the lower muscles of the body are stimulated and trained. The right paddling position involves keeping the knees slightly bent thus going to train and stress the muscle groups of quadriceps, femoral and buttocks.<\/p>\n<p>Sup is an intense cardiovascular activity that helps burn calories, shape the body, improve posture and balance and is a low-impact exercise (risk of injury).<\/p>\n<p>Finally, it helps to relax away from the hectic everyday life and, if done in a group, also helps to socialize.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/360insport.com\/en\/our-sup-courses-on-lake-como\/\">Discover our SUP courses on Lake
