Nicola Baird22 January 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. During summer 2024 Will from Inclusive Paddleboarding lent sup at Islington (a paddleboard club and coaching base) two of his specially designed stack seats. These enable paddleboarders to sit securely on a paddleboard and join in all the paddleboard activities. We found them fun and useful. They were great with stiffer and older clients who didn’t feel up to a possible fall in the water on that day, but still wanted to go out on the water. They were the best choice for litter picking as you could comfortably do so without pressure on your knees. They were perfect for the sporty clients who arrived with injured ankles and found that a session paddleboarding used a stack seat gave them the skills they wanted to learn without the pressure of further injuring their injury! Will has also given very useful advice about fundraising – how to provide evidence for a fundraising request. I hadn’t really understood how to make paddleboarding inclusive so it’s been brilliant having Will’s advice and experience. He is wise and fun and a huge advocate of paddleboarding.

” The Paddleboard seat Will designed for me is brilliant! I have a hip disorder which means that I cannot stand on a board, or support myself in a sitting position. I had previously tried a commercially available seat that attached to my board with adjustable straps, and while it was better than nothing, it did not provide enough support. Within 30 minutes, I was in a slumped and uncomfortable position that meant I had to return to shore. My husband started doing some research into better seats – it seemed nothing would work until he got in touch with Will.
After a couple of very relaxed sessions with Will where we chatted about what I needed and tried out various configurations of foam, my amazing bespoke seat was ready to go. It is super comfortable, providing lots of support and taking my full weight, meaning that I can stay out on the water for as long as I want. In fact, it feels a bit like an armchair (which may explain why I am repeatedly asked “Where’s your cup of tea?” by other water-users!). Other positives are that it is light-weight to carry and so easy to attach to the board that it only takes seconds to secure it. I cannot recommend this seat enough! Thanks to Will, I can get on the water comfortably, and finally be a participant rather than a spectator in a fun family activity. “
