At a glance, it is pretty easy to rent and bring the sup kauai. But when we talk about how to transport your sup kauai properly from one place to another, it is a different case. Although it looks easy to transport, the characteristics of the SUP somehow will hinder your trips if you don’t do it properly.
Plus, you will need to pay attention to your unit’s surface. If you wrongly store it, the board can be damaged. If you are driving by yourself, you need to find the good vehicles with enough space to safely transport your board inside. The first thing that we’d like to recommend to keep your sup kauai safe is to store it in a well-padded board bag. This will save your board as well as your vehicle from tearing and wearing.
Most folks want to transport their SUPs on the top of the vehicle. If you are one of them, then you will need to consider few things before starting your sup kauai journey.
First things first, you need to pay attention when transporting your sup flat on the roof. Make sure you place it with fins up. Avoid placement in the edge because your board can possibly act like a huge sail, which can cause you hard to control your vehicle. In some cases, the driver lost control and experienced accidents.
If your vehicle does not have racks, consider getting one for your car’s roof. The ideal type of the roof rack is the soft rack. It is purposely tailored to store the paddle board on the roof. It is simply the pads which sit on top of your car. The good thing here is that these pads won’t affect the surface of your car. A good quality set of racks may cost a little bit more, but you will be thankful later because of its features. Use the nose and tail lines which can attach the solid points in the back and front part of your vehicle.
One of the best sold in the market is Yakima racks. They are definitely helpful racks for all the SUP doers. This is the best way to carry your SUP board around while you are on the trip. If you are planning to conduct sup Kauai with your friends, chances are you will need to tie down multiple boards. To stack them, put the towel between them to protect each surface. You can use this method to stack the accessories as well.
That’s it the simple guide for you. Consider our tips and you will be having a nice sup kauai tour on your own.
