It's beginning to look a lot like spring!

Greetings from Helsinki. The temperatures are rising and this means that the ice cover is quickly melting from the Baltic Sea and our lakes in the Southern part of the country. This aspiring open water season calls for fun water activities. We have gathered here on our newsletter our newest selection of SUP boards, and because of  the ridicilously cold water at the moment we would also like to talk about suitable dry - /rescue suits for safety reasons designed for various water sports.

Inflatable SUP -boards
Inflatable SUP -boards are handy as they can be quite conveniently moved from one place to another. The best boards are made of very durable, double layer plastic materials so that they can deal with high enough pressure to ensure the stiffness and stability of the board.

We recommend that 15 PSI should be the minimum pressure where to inflate so that the board is properly stable. Almost all of the boards we sell can handle a maximun inflating pressure of 25 PSI. The optimum pressure where to inflate is somewhere between 18-20 PSI to ensure the best SUP experience.

Allround SUP
These boards are stable and steady. They are versatile regarding use: suitable for your lakeside cottage for the whole family or for nice day trips in standard conditions. These can also be used for SUP yoga or other fitness exercises. Paddling around is itself very good for developing your core strenghth.

Touring SUPs have been more and more popular lately. It is an interesting and a different kind of option for traditional canoeing.

Touring SUPs are slighty longer and leaner than the Allround SUPs. Touring SUPs are especially designed for longer trips and they can carry quite a heavy load of supplies. The deck has enough room to fit a weekend's or a week's gear - depending on what you are planning to carry along.

Being surrounded by water always bares it's own risks. The risks multiply when we are involved with very cold water. Although SUP -boards are very steady, there is always the chance to fall overboard. 
Especially here the water can not get cooler than this, just after the ice has left. Therefore we hav to take this in mind and prepare accordingly. We have a good selection of dry- /rescue suits, but here is a couple of conciderable ones for various water- and ice sports.

The Ursuit® MPS suit is suitable for all kinds of boating, fishing, paddling and for example nordic skating and snow surfing on ice.
The suits double seams are made so that the seam will not open even when worn. Inside the seams are heat seal taped and reinforced to be 100 % watertight. 

The idea of the suit is to have a base layer below the suit and have the outdoor clothing of your choice on top of the suit. In case you should unexpectedly be water-bourne your skin will not take contact with water and the base layer (or what you have chosen to wear under the dry suit) will act as insulation together with air and create also a fair amount of buoyancy. You should always still wear a life vest with a rescue suit to stay on the safer side.
Ursuit MPS Dry Undersuit
589.00 € incl VAT 24% (475 € VAT 0%)

A more robust option for the MPS suit is Ursuit's legendary Sea Horse.
For this suit the idea is to dress all the inslutaing layers underneath the immersion suit and the suit acts as the shell layer. Leisure use: For sports fishing, boating, sailing, ice fishing, a versatile­ allround suit at sea!
This can also be used for more actve sports like Nordic Skating or paddling, although on warm weather it can get a bit hot. All in all, if you want a suit for various soprts in cold or rough conditions, this is the suit for you.
This suit can (and is) also used by professionals, even by surface rescuers.
