Let me introduce myself first, my names Matt, and Paddle Surf Scotland is my baby. It all started off 7 years ago, when Paddleboarding was in much more of an infant stage in the UK. Starting off with 4 boards, some wetsuits and a dream, SUP back then was a tough sell to the masses.....no one knew what I was talking about, couldn't wrap their heads around blow up boards....it'll never catch on was the general concensus. Fast forward to 2020 and the SUP World is a different place. It really is everywhere and I have been so fortunate to have been along for the ride. I have been able to introduce thousands of people to the sport and love it when I can see my former proteges out on the water strutting their stuff. From ages 7 to 70 plus, I have seen all types of folks out on the water. 

This sport has taken me all over the World to surf and Explore. I have competed, written articles, been featured on television and in print and experienced so, so much through this simple thing.

Hopefully in this Blog, I can recount plenty of this to you. From guides to Scottish paddle locations, travel stories to technique guides. I hope to see you along this digital journey as well as meet up on the water!.
