This special paddle board gives most real feeling SUP paddle board experience.

I wrote script myself to give you slow graceful feeling of real paddle boarding. I made original paddling animation to give you the feeling of relaxed control as you paddle rivers and lakes with an easy forward stroke that works nicely as backward paddle as well. I also carefully designed the animation to follow the classic, gentle reaching forward side paddle style you often see paddle boarders use.

Just rez your paddle board on your favorite river or stream and stand (sit) on the board to paddle. You will see the word "Paddle" in the pie cart in place of the word Sit. Best turn off your AO.

You will find yourself standing on detailed traction pad. Also notice detailed cargo netting just ahead of traction pad. If you need to change your avatar position just use blue AV Sitter menu that appears on your viewer screen when you sit on board. All 20 pose positions can be adjusted with blue AVSitter menu.

As you stand you will notice a relaxed posture holding the paddle. You stay in that pose if you are not moving. Once you use your control arrows to move or turn you will change automatically to my original paddle board animation. I made it while standing on this board, holding the paddle and adjusting a sequence of 16 poses to form the paddle animation you experience.

The on-screen menu will give you choice of 18 more animations. Each pose location can be fully adjusted. They are: Fishing, Bow Sit, Tread Water, Back Flip Dive, Play in Water, Dance, Cross Leg Sit, Knees Up Sit, Lay On Back, Sun Tan Oil Apply, Lay On Side, Paddle in Surf, Surfer Stand, Surfer Crouch, Cozy Sit, Edge Sit, Day Dream, and Wobbly Balance Stand.

You will have a lot of fun with all 20 animated poses and using them in combinations. For example, after you dive into water then use tread water pose to return to surface. Or use Water Play to magically float and dive. Although this is a paddle board, I also included three surf board animations just in case you find yourself suddenly encountering a surfing wave. Use the three animations to get yourself to safe waters again! Be as inventive as you like with these animations!

Take a friend along too, there are seven animated passenger positions including fishing.

The long paddle is worn on your right hand in the normal way you wear anything. It is carefully positioned. You can edit and move it in your hand if needed, but I don't recommend moving it much unless you have an unusual avatar.

This paddle board has four speeds carefully chosen to give you graceful feeling of gliding over water. It is made for relaxed enjoyment at normal paddle board speeds. Top speed is set at a pace roughly what a top athlete might reach. Use motion control jump up and down arrows (or page up and down on keyboard keys) to change speed.

Your view as you paddle is 8 meters behind paddle board at an angle of 30 degrees down to give you a calm and complete perspective on paddle board and surroundings as you paddle. View gracefully follows the board as you turn.

Paddle board and paddle both have touch to rescale script. Touch silver Larsson skeg under board for rescale menu. I made both the paddle board and the long paddle following real life scale. Paddle boards are normally about 11 feet in length and 34 inches wide. I followed these dimensions with a slightly larger boost recognizing that the majority of SL avatars are a bit over scale. Touch the paddle for its rescale menu.

The little puppy riding along is a fun feature. Just touch him to make visible or invisible, and say "b" in public chat anytime you want to make him say a cheerful "woof." I moved him to the back of the board out of way of all the poses.

There are three color versions: Power Pink, Terrific Teal, and Blue Beauty. Say "pink" or "teal" or "blue" in chat to change colors. Use private channel 3 to do this if you like. For example "/3pink" works in private chat. Control dog bark this way too.

As you move in the water you will hear a gentle sound of moving water. The sound stops and resumes automatically as you control the motion. Also as you paddle you will sometimes notice a little misty wake in water. It only appears when you are paddling.

You can use your own fishing rod and fishing hud with fishing pose. Fishing game gear will take over and work as normal. I included a fishing pole in case you need one. My personal favorite is to use the Northern Operations fishing game pole while sitting on the bow of the paddle board with my feet moving in the water (Look into the SL fishing games if you have not done so already).

Look for me around Blake Sea, especially near Sirens Isle. I use my SUP at Sirens Isle quite often. There are so many rez zones in Blake Sea making it one of best areas to enjoy paddling about.

best paddle board Iv'e found so far

As a basic paddleboard, it gets 5 stars for the animations ( best I've seen for a paddleboard,) the look of the board, plus the dog is cute. I shocked at how well it surfs big waves It does not surf like a normal SL surfboard but it can ride and make it over waves, if you get a wave directly behind you you can ride it all the way to the beach without touch your keyboard. really fun to play in the waves with this.
But for 1000L it's only got 2 animations the board object is no mod or I'd just add my own to it. The best surfboards in SL cost less than 1/2 this and have 20 animations. this doesn't need all that but a few sit, lay and floating, animations would make this 6 stars. all so to ride the waves I had to use a camera override hud form a boat I have.

Relaxing to paddle around, no fear of sim crossings, and the animations are very realistic.
The paddling stops when just one would realistically expect to just rest and bit and float on. Which give it a very smooth ride feeling.
A lot of love and care has been put into making this.
Lovely little craft! Please go on making cool stuff like this!

This is a lovely SUP board! Its a great way to explore small waterways & rivers that are too marrow to sail (perfect for the Eden estate!) I had a script glitch on sim crossing but Lisle fixed that pronto and now it crosses borders with ease. The custom animations are lovely. Best SUP Board on MP, 5*
