ikSUP Loosdrecht – SUP-school
Marina De Uitkijk
Oud Loosdrechtsedijk 237 – cottage A1/B2
NL-1231 LX Loosdrecht
The sup-school is located in cottage A1/B2 – the rightmost white house at the end of the marina, right next to the restaurant.
Please note !! when typing in Google maps, it refers to the store that is a little further away
Unfortunately it is not possible to park in the parking lot of Jachthaven De Uitkijk, but this can be done for free at the - next to the marina - parking lot Spinaker (Note not on the right on the grass = fine). or in the parking lot of the opposite church.
On beautiful summer days it can be difficult to find a parking space, so keep this in mind with your planning
Easy-fitting sportswear (running clothing is excellent!) and as soon as possible barefoot because that's how you have the most grip. In cooler weather there are also wetsuits available (for rent we charge here
€ 2.50 for) and it is best to put on sneakers that can get wet. (please bring an extra pair of shoes and socks) Under a wetsuit you should wear the best swimsuit.
On beautiful summer days we would like to ask if you want to change clothes at home and also lubricate yourself (this way the walk-through goes faster) Take dry clothes and towel with you in case you fall into the water.
At the port there is an opportunity to shower for a fee (1 euro coin).
You can leave your belongings in our supschool – we have lockers – use of these is free.
The chance is small but if you fall off the board you can lose your glasses. We therefore recommend not to wear glasses or with glasses,
- extra set of dry clothes
- towel
- sunscreen
- For the environment we ask you to bring your own water bottle and you can of course fill it with us.
- mosquito stuff and especially if you are going to make a trip in the evening.
- waterproof phone case and bag (we also have barrels or bags that you can borrow for free)
With us you can pay by debit card and credit card.
Unfortunately, we do not have the weather in hand and it can happen that you come and it turns out that it is not safe to go on the water. In wind force 5 and in thunderstorms, no one is allowed on the water. It is not possible for us to call everyone so if in doubt please contact us. Wind can be predicted a day in advance, only thunderstorms can only be seen 3 hours in advance so check the weather app before you leave.
It looks so easy and it is not too difficult to learn but it is a sport and you need a basic condition for it. It is also important that you can sit on your knees, this does not have to be long, but being able to stand from your knees and also quickly sit on your knees is a must. If in doubt, please contact us so that we can assess your situation and give good advice.
Supping can be intensive and requires a lot of your abdominal muscles and balance. For us it is very difficult to estimate how you feel but keep in mind that supping can be too tiring and especially in hot weather. In your second trimester and third trimester, your belly starts to grow more and more and you can hurt yourself or fall on your stomach in the event of a fall. If you fall into the water, it is also difficult to climb back on the board with a belly.
There is the possibility to have a drink or eat at restaurant de Havenclub or Het kompas after afoop. Both less than 5 minutes from the SUP school.
