I love going out paddleboarding on the ocean near me
I've never been paddleboarding! It looks hard! Is it?
No all you have to do is swim while your belly is on the board.  if you get good you can try to kneel or stand
I can't swim, so I'd be afraid to fall off the board! It may be fun to try with a life jacket though.
Definitely wear a life vest!  it will keep you afloat in water and could save your life
I also live near an ocean, maybe I'll take up paddleboarding. What other equipment do I need?
If you want to do stand up paddleboarding you will need an actual paddle, for paddleboarding you will need nothing but a board
Oh awesome. I don't plan on trying to stand. Small steps, small steps. Haha!
Yes you can go and ride the swells and cross between islands or journey through the coass
