We had a wonderful time with Samantha learning to SUP with our Pup. We are newer SUP owners and Samantha created a lesson for us using our own equipment. She was wonderful with us (me, my 10 year old son, 2 year old Black Lab). Great tips on paddling and working with our dog. Also, taught me more about caring for and transporting my SUP. More than what I expected.
I highly recommend renting from The SUP Connection. Rent on the water, SUPs are not easy to transport. The area is a calm and safe waterway, a great place for any beginner. Renters were given basic instruction and safety information. So much better than my past expieriences renting from other places.
