Paddle Board Technique - Nose 360

The Nose 360 is a great paddle board technique to pull many skills together. In this video we look at this fun flat water SUP technique and how it not only builds the use of the paddle as a brace but also starts to improve board trim. It’s a great skill to help push your paddling and prepare you for different paddle board kit and more challenging environments. The paddle starts on the leash side and sweeps around the nose of the paddle board. From here, you need to use the same skills as in the step back turn - take lots of strokes on your toe side and put weight on your leash foot to lift the fins out of the water and allow the board to spin around. Once the 360 is complete, return to a normal paddling position by sweeping the paddle around the front of the board once again and moving your leash foot back into a parallel stance.
