That’s why SUP magazine has partnered with the U.S. Coast Guard to bring you “Safe SUP Choices,” an ongoing series of safe-paddling reminders.

Because, all kidding aside, too many standup paddlers are drowning–and those deaths could be avoided. So take a minute to enjoy, then take a minute to think and then make the right choices next time you hit the water. They can make all the difference. In this installment, we cover the importance of always dressing for immersion. Because it doesn’t pay off to be a fashionista on the water.
