We see them again and again: people who are firmly convinced that they don't need a life jacket, a restube, because "I can swim". And unfortunately, people who can't swim at all or can only swim badly also go SUP without a life jacket. We want to help prevent accidents and prohibitions in this brilliant sport. A broad awareness of...
Ivan Ureta is a long-distance paddler and has realised an extraordinary project in which he has proven that even as a SUP athlete you can keep your ecological footprint small when travelling.

The new SUP drysuit from HIKO with the sonorous name "Valkyrie" is designed as a unisex suit for women and men. We had it with us and tested it on our tour through Austria and present it in detail in this video:
