"Cooney draws from the best of sports psychology in teaching athletes to develop mental toughness and agile problem-solving skills on the water. As any paddler knows, variable wind, swell, and current create a constant mental puzzle. But coupling water conditions with the physical demands of SUP, paddlers are left face-to-face with their own character and weaknesses. Suzie's advice is rooted in years on the water and in competition. The book deals with low self-esteem, negative thoughts, risk, and removing the obstacles that prevent our own success, and provides practical solutions for moving beyond our limitations."   SUP CONNEÇT

" This IS the SUP training bible, as it is the most comprehensive offering out there that crossing all levels of paddle skill. Even if you think you know all you need to know about how to train for paddling, you'll still get something out of this book. And if you're like me, you'll find yourself carrying it around with you for reference, since it's easy to skim. Every paddler should have it on their shelf." DISTRESSED MULLET
