Not sure about the paddle, but you can't use it backwards, which is good!

Found the source ... "Make your own sup for < under$100"

No dear, It doesnt fall to bits. At least the first one built on 2011 it is still being used and counting....
Check here for building them correctly

Ok, that's a cool idea, but $197 to get plans and materials to make a water bottle SUP seems a little steep? The selling point is we are apparently 'saving' money as SUPs cost $1500...... For chucks sake! It's a novelty water bottle board - great to make with the kids and have fun, but not to replace a board.
Good on them for finding a novel recycling use for water bottles, but I think the price point might be a be misguided.
Like I said tho.... Cool idea.

How long since you've been called dear?, love

Shame you can't use beer bottles... Would be a fun weekend "collecting materials"

wouldn't work in some parts of Perf WA ------ most of the Placcy bottles get used for bongs

Pretty cool you could travel to Bali without a board and make one from the bottles washed up on the beach and the girl in this pic is worth a post in the sexy Sups chicks thread. Thanks for the share.
