Should you choose a kayak, a canoe, or a SUP? That's a big question, and that's what I'm talking about in this video. How to choose between canoes, kayaks, and stand up paddle boards. Over the past year, I've done in depth reviews of kayaks ranging from $500 to $3000.

ISUP is the most versatile, really need to try one out for a while and get comfy on it. They can hold more than most kayaks and the ability to deflate and tote them is second to none. Something about dangling my feet over it or laying down for a nap on it or standing is just super cool. i don't feel hemmed in and its much more stable than most touring yaks IMO. I'd love to hear a long term review of a decent touring ISUP after camping/portaging with massive load on it.

This guy is great. Like there's even a debate. KAYAK.

@boost1728 2 дня назад

There’s plenty of debate depending on your circumstances. For my dog and I that go camping a couple times a month on low-wind local lakes, a SUP has been perfect; it’s light and deflates/folds up into a backpack. A kayak would be nice if there was a second person or we had a bunch of gear to drag along but that isn’t the case. I’d still put a canoe in 7th place out of the 3 though lol.

@TheFraserama 2 года назад

I could add that some of the positives of open canoes are that you have the ability to move your legs and sitting positions more, which you cannot do with kayaks. This is particularly good in long trips, where in a kayak your legs are stuck in the same position. It can also get quit hot and smelly underneath the spray deck. There is nothing worse than cold water dripping down your back. You seem to be quite wet a lot, unless you wear a dry suit and that in itself get hot. I find also the sitting position itself (that is slightly leaning forward) in a kayak uncomfortable. I have never had a go of a SUP but the paddling stroke I see looks very ungainly, and not as ergonomic as the O/C or the kayak strokes. Maybe it is just the ones I've seen

@mandaloresmercy 2 года назад

Pack boat all the way! Picked up a swift Cruiser pack boat and use a kayak paddle on it but also have a sit on top kayak. Warmer than my sit on top kayak in the cold times too.

@wavesoffun 2 года назад

I guess it depends on your personal interest. I don't mind a spot of SUP with my kids, but not for long. I much prefer the distance covered, speed and fun that can be had with sea kayak adventures though. All paddlesports have their value - starting with a Challenger K1 may then stimulate interest in canoeing or kayak when the bug bites... all encourage fun on the water and an interest in outdoor pursuits

@14Mentalist 9 месяцев назад

I have a sup board a d omg it's so much fun. I got a seat for it and brought a kayak paddle works OK. But since also kayaking I am definitely buying a sit on top as I feel kayaks sit ins or onto are much more stable. I decided a seat on top as I like to go swimming when I'm out at sea and a sit in I've been told are hard to get back in. So new to padding but my word it's soooooo much fun. A day off and I'm straight down to a beach or launch point. I am proud to say I am an addict and I absolutely love it.

@ThePhiloctopus 2 года назад

I love my SUPs! One massive advantage for me is that they are inflatable and pack down really small. I can store them easier and transport them easier. I have a SUP I can surf, I use it as a mobile platform to snorkel off, and you can get touring paperboard to carry big loads. I've had multiple people on a larger board and even a dog. They have a really low profile that has gotten me places not even a kayak could reach, let alone a canoe. Don't forget you can sit on them too! Or lay down and drift around. In some ways they are the most versatile of all these water craft, if not the best at any one things. You do need to be fit and a strong swimmer though. You don't wear a PDF with paddleboards, they are your PFD.

@scottstone1444 2 года назад

I added a kayak seat and paddle. Great for lakes and rivers. Love my inflatable for the same reasons.

@PaddleTV 2 года назад

All great points, although it should be noted that they are considered a vessel by the coast guard. You do need to wear a PFD with them, unless you're in a designated swimming area or a surf zone. That being said, many people choose an inflatable waist-belt PFD.

@ThePhiloctopus 2 года назад

@@PaddleTV yep good point, this varies by location. In my country they are not vessels, and you don't need a PDF unless you are going more than 400m from shore. Lesson is, check your local laws and conditions.

@Morio412 2 года назад

I love my paddleboard for the same reason, I have an all round Isup that is nearly a touring board with an up turned nose and moderate rocker. Something like 30 inches wide instead of the 32/33inches one usually sees in the all round cat. I made myself a stadium seat with attached fold out foot rest and attached fishing rod holders when it is laid out on the board but when packed away to storage then it acts as the pack frame for more comfort and holds my camp and cook gear along with fishing gear when hiking, total pack weight is 23.6kg... but great for coastal touring and paddle hiking adventures.

@szymongrabarczyk3561 2 года назад

Exacly. Versatile and mobile. I pack my sup on my motorbike along with a single + double blade paddle and an anchor. Theres so much stuff you can do with it.

@MeZAmI175 Год назад

Thank you Nice video

@jefffski 2 года назад

Each has its benefits. The surprise to me has been the SUP. Many people want to get on the water but have nowhere to store a large boat, or even a folding type. I'm not a fan of inflatable SUPs, but you can take an one on a bus and store it at home in a closet. As a serious flatwater canoeist (ocean expeditions!), I was always quite critical of the people I saw on SUPs, until I bought one (race-type performance hard board). Now, I can load and unload my own boat and paddle it on my own and get a really good workout.

@PaddleTV 2 года назад

I agree. I really enjoy the SUP for mixing things up, getting a different paddling workout. The V-nose 'race-style' boards are definitely my preferred to.

@kattotonic3143 2 года назад

My trip down the kayaking way of life really started for a silly reason. I was out for my first time trying magnet fishing and I got it stuck badly. The only way to get it back was by boat, which I did not have. Thankfully a nice fellow came along with his boat and got it unstuck. So, I need something for future issues that may come up. Well, a Canoe was my first thought. But I really wanted to be on my own, so I settled on a kayak. I only got to go out three times last summer, but it was great! Can't wait for the warm weather to return to get out there again. Just wanted to add, kayaking is not overly expensive to get into. Making it a fun way to get outside and have some great times! 😁

@PaddleTV 2 года назад

Couldn't agree more! Glad you discovered it! Have a great paddling and fishing season this year.

@TheFrugalFlyRodder Год назад

Hard to argue personal preferences. I've had each craft at one time (kayak, canoe and now, SUP). The "inflatable" SUP is the lightest and most versatile. I too, like others here, have added a seat, but I also glued on extra Scotty mounts and rings. In Ohio, a SUP does not require a vessel license... unless a seat is added. So I got one, go figure. BTW, an inflatable waist PFD is the way to go.

@MeetMeOutside 2 года назад

My Placidboatworks Rapidfire is only 22 lbs and makes portages a breeze, it’s a pleasure to paddle. It’s a solo canoe that handles big water like a champ ! Absolutely fantastic for multi day canoe camping trips !

@lindajackson5035 2 года назад

I love all three and as you said, it depends on what you want to do, your lifestyle, family situation, etc. and that can change. Hubby and I loved canoe tripping when we were younger and lived in Ontario, 🇨🇦 where there are some wonderful lake routes. Now that we are retired and live on the west coast on Vancouver Island where canoeing isn’t as popular, I took up kayaking and paddle boarding. It’s not my hubby’s thing but I love it. Kayaking in the lovely bays off the ocean and paddle boarding on small, quiet lakes where it is calmer and I can get my nature therapy. My SUP is inflatable and only 22 lbs so I can handle it myself. I agree with you. Pick one or more and go for it.

@christopherfarrell9227 2 года назад

I use SUP. Pro: 1. Fitness. You use more of your muscles including your legs when paddling vs kayaks, rafts, and canoes. Most are also sturdier for things like push-ups and I've even seen handstands. 2. Easy to transport. I take multiple out and if you use iSUPs you can make even more room. 3. Versatile. You can turn some into kayaks and you can use for multi day camp trips. You can use for for fitness and you can use for surfing. You can fish off them too. 4. Family. Kids love it. It's simple. It's like a floating dock. 5. Easier to get off and on. 6. Easy to clean since there are no real nooks and crannies. Cons: 1. Requires weight distribution and balance more than kayaks and canoes because you are standing more. 2. Not as sturdy because they are flat bottomed typically. 3. You will not stay dry. Like sit on kayaks, water tends to get on top if you do decide to sit. 4. Carrying can be annoying, especially if you have stuff attached. There are no compartments, so stuff can swing and constantly shift weight.

@nunyabidness3075 2 года назад

Pack canoes and Combi’s are taking market share from Kayaks at the upper price points. A pack canoe is a one person canoe that is essentially a kayak without the deck. Not as good for rough conditions, but better for everything else. They are designed for a double blade paddle or traditional canoe paddle. Combi’s are midsize canoes for use as solo canoes or tandem, also with either paddle type. There are several good companies that make competitive products, but Swift makes the best RU-vid videos. Watch those to get an idea of what’s possible, then shop for the best boat for you.

@wongjefx980 2 года назад

@TheTeeDay Год назад

Inflatable sups give you the option to stand, sit, kneel, lay or my personal favorite sit on my cooler. I even use a kayak paddle. You do get a better workout than a kayak. But be warned old people on kayaks will come by and say “isn’t that a STAND up paddle board” I just tell them that’s what big kayak wants you to think.

@Rabnifnamkcir 2 года назад

Good video, but I think SUPs can be more than just the fun little brother to the other crafts. Not all SUPs are the cheap toy type. High quality touring boards have been used for multi day expeditions. They’re also brilliant for portability and lightness and they’re great fun for rough water because you can try things that might dump you in without worrying about bailing out :-)

@PaddleTV 2 года назад

I agree... you can do SO much with a SUP. They can be great in surf, and some people do some pretty major expeditions in them. I didn't mean for it to come across as though SUPs weren't versatile. I have friends that absolutely love running whitewater in them as well. They are amazingly versatile... but I would need some convincing to agree that they do all of these things better than kayaks or canoes (although SUPs dominate in the surf). Does that mean they're not great? Not at all. Even though they might not do these things better, they add a totally different dimension to paddling, which is one of the biggest draws to them.

@TismFishing Год назад

My thumbnail is the Jackson sup-er fishial I loved it and did a few multi day trips over 40 miles and through some class 1 and 2 water. I good paddle board is nice. I will say I only have kayaks now, don’t know which sup is the right one for the future.

@alanobrien5284 2 года назад

You are really under selling paddleboards. You can easily attach a kayak seat to a paddleboard and some paddles can convert between a paddleboard and a kayak paddle. Look into irockers blackfin series. I have the xl and it's made for expeditions(485 lbs limit) and can convert into a 2 person kayak.

@SpaceCowboy2071 2 года назад

I appreciate the perspectives! Too bad you don't SUP more, as they're great for: - Compact iSUPs can deflate and roll into a backpack, talk about convenient portaging! - Provide better fitness exercise than other paddlecraft as they work more muscle groups. - Better vantage point to view and take in your surroundings. - More thrills: surfing, whitewater, and downwinding. - Speaking of downwinding, if you want a speedy paddle adventure a downwinder is so much fun! All three are great activities, so enjoy whatever takes you there on the water.

I'm wondering if those kayaks can handle the same rough conditions?

@gordon1545 2 года назад

As someone who's just starting out in the way many do today - with a cheap inflatable kayak from Amazon - I'd love a few other bits of advice. Firstly, how long can I hope my inflatable will last? When it dies, is it worth spending 5 times as much (or more) on a canoe or kayak? I already love being able to take my kayak on my bike trailer and on buses and trains, so that I'm not forced to use a car - am I stuck with inflatables if that's what I wants? And I'm, well, a lot heavier than most, starting out by being a big guy and then adding the weight of too many bad choices on top. Being more active is one of the reasons I bought a kayak. I really value stability but when I tried a sit-in kayak I was so low in the water that waves constantly came in. Any advice for me? Thanks so much for the advice on your channel, as a newbie who doesn't know any paddlers and doesn't live near a club this is invaluable.

@PaddleTV 2 года назад

Hi Gordon. Congrats on getting started with kayaking! The super cheap inflatables (like the Intex Challenger) can't be expected to last very long. Depends on how much you use them. I think of these kayaks as 'gateway' kayaks - kayaks that let you test whether you like kayaking, without spending much money. If you do decide you like it, then yes... it is definitely worth spending 5 times as much! I would recommend going to a local 'paddling shop' for specific advice, and they might even have some kayaks you can test. As for portable kayaks... you're not stuck with inflatable. There are folding kayaks, like the Oru Kayaks, that perform much better than inflatables, but they're pricier. For heavier folks, the Oru Kayak Haven TT would be best. It can be used as a 1-person or 2-person kayak. Otherwise, there are some great inflatables to choose from, if you don't mind spending the money. The Sea Eagle 385 Fast Track is supposed to perform well, and be good for up to 600lbs. I expect to test that kayak next month. Depending on your weight, sit-inside kayaks might not be the best choice, because they'll ride low as you mentioned. Sit-on-top kayaks often handle much more weight. Hope this helps!

As a life long kayaker I never understood why anyone would want to SUP. Then one day I saw a group of young girls (5) all paddling together. Of course they weren't wearing their PFD's properly or at all and all of them had good bodies they wanted to show off. BUT.... the way they used their SUP's showed why this is the new hip choice of the young. (primarily girls with good bodies) They would break and join their SUP's in a 5 point star with the bows all facing each other. They had bluetooth players receiving the same signal and playing simultaneously. They used the craft to jump on and off while swimming-- a floating party platform that was mobile on the water.
