Similar to windsurfing, paddling has not only a physiological, but also an ecological impact. Rather than using external power the equipment requires a good sense of balance on the board and propulsion originates in your own muscles. The benefits are great for mind and body and sharing a board is the standard way of getting your exercise. There are more and more stations near the sea or on lakes available in 2026-5 so that it has become a much more accessible form of exercise.
