This hands-on, heart-pounding experience is suitable for groups looking for a competitive, team-oriented water adventure.

Potsdam itself is known for its blend of rich history and array of lakes and rivers that set the perfect stage for SUP Polo.

Whether you’re a local or visiting, SUP TRIP’s equipment rental for up to eight players at once makes this more than just a quick thrill; it’s a social water sport that can stretch from an hour-long game to a week-long series of matches.

The innovation lies in the specially crafted boards and paddles, which include holes for ball control, making gameplay dynamic and skill-dependent. SUP TRIP’s all-inclusive gear setup means no prior experience with advanced SUP boards is necessary—the only prerequisite is a spirit for competitive play and balance. Potsdam’s outdoor scene benefits from SUP TRIP’s addition as a fresh alternative to hiking or cycling tours, mixing physical exertion with teamwork and playful rivalry on the water.
