I want to take up a water sport. I always thought kayaking but it seems like a ton of people around my town are huge standup paddle boarders and I work with a dude whose into all of the water sports and he says SUP is by far the best option.

Kayak is way more versatile and MUCH less expensive. SUPs are insanely overpriced right now, imo, due to them being the hot "new" trend.

$500 for a pretty decent kayak vs. $1300 for a decent SUP. That's a no brainer to me, especially when you're just entering the sport and aren't sure that you'll even stick with it.
