 Pura Vida to all SUPers out there.  From Freedom Riding SUP in Mal Pais,,,,, all I have to say is that for surfing and SUP Wave Riding, Costa Rica is the best!! Just in the last three years there have been various Paddle Board Companies popping up all over the Country, and just about all of them are creating a great service, you can't really go wrong,,,,,,,with most of them.   Two Marcoses in Tamarindo, they are both worth looking up. Nosara has various well reputed companies. Jaco you have Vista Guapa, and "SUPers Costa Rica" and a few others. Uvita has a new SUP company, they are good people. Near Pavones there are a few operations, perfect waves and good vibes.  In Puerto Viejo on the Caribbean side, you can find a SUP company right there in town, that can give you a unique Caribbean SUP experience.   Costa Rica is the best!!!! Get down here ASAP!!!

   I'm Andy from Freedom Riding / SUP Costa Rica.  We have waves all year round, and our Nicoya Peninsula is littered with surf spots on both sides, a break for every one, and a lot of outer reefs with no surfers in sight!

    We specialize more in customizing your SUP vacation, making it a unique experience for everyone who comes to visit us.  Check us out at www.sup-costarica.com

     Pura Vida!!

WatSUP CB SUPer. 
     
      I don't currently have that short of a SUP board, but working on it.  I have a friend who has a 7'10 SUP which he might be interested in renting out if you make it down here.  I'm working on getting some smaller SUP boards in the next month, a 8'5 Jerry Lopez  Flexlite,  and a 8'10 Jerry Lopez "Sweetie Pie".  I've been shaping surf boards for over 20 years now, and my main goal this year is to shape some high performance SUP boards in the 7'7 range up to 9'0. I'm working on getting the outline templates, that's all I need at this point, as the rest is easy for me to shape. 

    Anyways, getting to Mal Pais from Liberia is about the same as coming from San Jose, especially if you plan on renting a car.  You just drive two hours south from Liberia to Puntarenas, and take the ferry to Paquera (one hour ferry ride), and then one hour drive to Mal Pais. It's a beautiful trip once you get on the ferry, and the Peninsula de Nicoya is just spectacular, and there are so many great spots to SUP out here, you would be blown away.

     I'll get back to you about my friends boards, and if he's interested in renting it out. He's not using it much anyways!!! :)     

     Pura Vida

You could come down and visit us in Mal Pais, Costa Rica.  We are Freedom Riding SUP, and our main goal is to help clients customize their ideal tropical SUP vacation. We cater to all levels, and have a great selection of quality surf/sup breaks. With my 20 years local knowledge, I can get you into good/empty waves and help you work on your wave riding skills. I have 35 years surfing experience, and now 4 years SUP experience.

You guys could also drive south and stay in Mal Pais/Santa Teresa, and come Paddle Board with us.  We are Freedom Riding SUP, here at the end of the road in Mal Pais. We are a hard core SUP company, and cater to all levels. I have a great selection of SUPs to rent, and do guided Tours around the tip of the Nicoya Peninsula. So many great spots to paddle, and great waves to ride with no one around.  I do beginner SUP lessons/tours, and also wave riding clinics for anyone who is ready to start riding waves.
    You can check us out at www.sup-costarica.com.  We also have reviews on Tripadvisor  under "Freedom Riding SUP".   I'm more into helping SUP clients customize their tropical SUP Adventure trip.  Not really planning on doing a full on set Package deal, but rather work directly with clients on making their trip customized to their needs and wants, and it works out cheaper that way.
     Come check us out, you will not be disappointed.
        Bests in 2013!!

Thanks for the Big Ups Keiki, and recommending my operation to others. Dale and his wife had a great time while they were here, and lucked into some fun waves out at the reef. Those two were charging out there.

    Hope to see you back some time soon. If you do plan another trip, get ahold of me before hand, and let me know if you need any advise on places to stay or anything really.

     Again, thanks so much for the props!!

       Best to you in 2013!!
   
         Andy from Freedom Riding SUP.

     P.S.- We now have a new webpage, at www.sup-costarica.com   I'm planning on helping clients customize their tropical  SUP vacations down here, instead of doing a full on package deal. It will be cheaper for the customer, and they get just what they want out of their trip.
