Blue Chip since 1980
Blue Chip has been into water sports professionally since 1980 and at the forefront of SUP in the UK since the beginning. Check out our Blue Chip SUPer Club, we are not just following a trend and jumping on the band wagon, we're setting the trend and moving the sport forward all the time.

With such an array of SUP board designs on the markets, we use our experience and knowledge base to stock the boards that we feel offer the best value in terms of cost, durability and performance.

We only supply top quality boards, paddles and accessories that will last the test of time:  The boards we supply cover:

  All Pockets;     £449 is our starting price
  All Inclusive; Most prices include items like paddle, leash & carry sling
  All Abilities; Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, Expert
  All Styles; Racing, Cruising, Crossover, Surfing, Recreational
  All Requirements; Top Quality Inflatable boards that fit into a rucksack, great for air travel
  All Variations; Windsurfing Mast rails are either included or can be fitted
  All Constructions; Light Epoxy Sandwich, Carbon, Wood laminate, Softboards, Inflatable

Boards are generally divided into three individual groups.
  Crossover
or All-round
These all normally between 10' and 12' 6 and are flat hulled and look more like the original long board surf board. Very easy to paddle, stable, and good in waves, the crossover boards represent the vast majority of boards sold in the UK today and these crossover boards will suit most people.
  Surfing These boards are shorter (normally between 9' and 10' 6") Easy and stable to paddle on flat water, their manoeuvrability makes them hard to paddle over longer distances. These boards are more at home in waves, and need to be ridden more aggressive than crossover boards, however they do give the surfer an easier time when manoeuvring in waves. These smaller SUP boards make good second boards, or for the windsurfer who likes to get out with little or no wind.
  Racing These boards are long  12' 6 - 15' 6 and have a keener shaped hull, similar to that of a racing kayak which allows them to cut through the water very easily and give phenomenal glide characteristics. These boards are ideal for flat water endurance paddling or racing. the 12' 6 Freerace board are also great for cruising

Below we have given our guide as to where the different boards could compare with each other. It is important to view our attribute scores purely as an initial guide. For more in depth and unbiased information on how one board may compare with another and and their relevant strong points for your intended use, please call us on 0208 715 0040 and we will be more that happy to help you find your way through the various SUP models to fined your ideal board.
