Among the superyachts at the 28th Monaco Yacht Show in Monte-Carlo this 25-28 September, Bayonne-based LOEVA will present a perfectly transparent stand-up paddle. This SUP allows paddlers to glide over the surface of the waves while admiring the underwater universe by day or by night. The board is a world first to be made with Altuglas^® ShieldUp, a nano-structured acrylic glass developed by Arkema. Incubation by the Arkema R&D Centre in Lacq also helped the LOEVA startup to perfect this stand-up paddle. Combining state-of-the-art technology, avant-garde design and high-grade manufacturing, it transcends the boarding experience.
