The stand-up paddleboard (SUP) is a growing sport on Lake Martin. It’s a great form of exercise and a lot of fun. So what is there to know about them? There are so many different kinds of SUPs out there; what makes one different from another?  

 There are inflatables, soft tops, classics, touring, surfers, racers and even ones for specific activities, such as yoga. I have a friend that paddles all over the U.S. and the Caribbean racing and instructing SUP yoga. The SUP industry is pushing innovation and has grown in the past five to seven years. Â
