Paddleboarding in the Puelo River Valley of Northern Patagonia with Hala Nass boards on a multi-day expedition.

Near Puerto Varas in Northern Patagonia is the Petrahue river. Popular for rafting in the area, it's a magnificent river to run standing up.

River SUP is growing in popularity and Maupin, Oregon is at the heart of its growth.

Hala athletes Cami Swan, Joey Saputo, Andy O'Brian, and Eduardo Hernandez surfing Mar Brava in Patagonia.

In the Lake District of Patagonia, we find Paul Clark and ViveSup teaming up to offer rough water and river clinics.
