Are you ready to level up your SUP game in the most effective way?
Do you want to get the most out of your whitewater SUP course and have an experienced ISA-certified instructor only for yourself? Private whitewater SUP coaching is all about you and your goals! We will focus on areas you want to improve and build up your whitewater SUP skills step by step. All at your own pace.
If you have tried whitewater SUP and didn’t quite make it or you need help with leveling up, this is the right place. We will go through the essential theory and river safety but, most importantly, practice on water and play in the waves.
And don’t worry about the gear. We’ve got everything to keep you comfortable and safe!
Soča is, without a doubt, one of the best playgrounds to learn whitewater SUP. It has various sections of different difficulty levels from class I to class III. There are many playful waves and places to practice, but always enough space to slow down and have a break. We will carefully choose the best river section for you, and every day we can step up.
We will meet in our base and pack all the equipment.
Then we hop in a van and start a 10 min drive.
After arrival, you can change and leave your clothes in the van.
We will have a briefing about safety and practice on the shore in shallow water.
After we are comfortable and ready, we head to the waves of Soča.
We will practice different techniques and play in the emerald waves.
The car will be waiting at the finish point. We will get changed and drive back to Bovec.
Hi, I am Sebestyén, founder of Bovec SUP and ISA-certified SUP instructor. Guiding on whitewater has been my mission for more than 10 years.
I love to share my knowledge about whitewater paddleboarding, especially on one of the most beautiful rivers in the world, which Soča definitely is.
I put together my own method of teaching based on my experience with hundreds of clients. We will learn together all the essential theories, but most importantly, have fun in the waves and focus on your improvement. Whitewater SUP is not only about paddling down the river, and I can not wait to show you how to master your SUP with style!
If you know the date of your holidays, there is nothing to wait for. Sometimes we have space for last-minute reservations, but in the high season (June-August), it can happen that our activities will be sold out on your desired date. However, in that case, we always try to find a different solution.
Each day we spend on the water 1,5–2 hours. That’s our best experience, so you keep focused and full of energy.
You don’t need a whitewater SUP experience. However, it is necessary that you are confident with paddleboarding on flatwater.
You only need to bring a swimsuit and towel, we will take care of all the rest.
We understand that sometimes things don’t go as we planned. We don’t charge any cancellation fee, but we would kindly ask you to let us know as soon as possible. We need to plan our logistics, and like that, we can also offer your spot to someone else who otherwise couldn’t come.
Rain showers are fine on water, as we will be wet anyways, but in case of storms and wind, we will reach you a day before your tour to discuss options. In case of cancellation, you, of course, don’t pay anything.
We are going to get in touch with you within 24 hours, answer all your questions and eventually set together the ideal date of your trip.
Thank you for your message! We will get back to you as soon as we get out of water. :-)
