Wuz SUP?

Written by Zogics | May 23, 2012

Our boss here at Zogics, Paul, just made a lifestyle choice that I don't necessarily condone, but I am desperately trying to understand. He has purchased a SUP.

For those of you who aren't familiar, SUP stands for Stand Up Paddleboard. It's a long surf board looking thing upon which you stand or kneel and then propel yourself via paddle. If a surf board and a kayak met at a music festival somewhere and had a drunken one night stand that resulted in a baby, that baby would grow up to be a stand up paddle board. See below:

Paddleboarding could be the coolest thing since the BeeGee's but I'm skeptical for the sole reason that I relish any opportunity to poke fun at Paul. It just looks kind of awkward and its possible that I'm just too cool for it.

However, I refuse to make snap judgements. Who knows, maybe I would love paddle boarding? Allegedly it's great for your core and since the ThighMaster I've been using for the past 20 years has yet to deliver the six pack Susan Sommers promised me, maybe I shouldn't be so quick to pass up trying something new. Paddlebaord Yoga? Yeah, that's a thing too.

And maybe a good ole fashioned company SUP Yoga retreat could be just what Zogics needs to make the next big break through in antibacterial gym wipe technology? Make me a believer Paul.

Or we could just go to Vegas.
