Aloha, we’re Scott & Meredith Jorss.

We’re the duo behind That SUP Couple. We’re certified paddle board instructors who started this blog to spread the SUP stoke in our community and beyond, and to inspire outdoor adventure both on and off the water.

We first met, on the water, in 2013 and have been paddling collectively for over a decade. Avid racers and SUP surf enthusiasts, the whitewater is where be both started our paddling careers — just 8 miles from DC in the class I and II rapids of Great Falls National Park. Today, you can either catch up teaching private lessons, partnering with local outfitters, SUP racing, or just paddling with our SUP pup, Fin.

We started this platform in 2017 — just before we got married — when we were known as DC SUP Couple. Since then, we’ve moved to the Mad River Valley in Vermont. Most of our writing centers around SUP and our adventures in the off-season, but you’ll find a lot of reflections in our “Journal” too.

We believe there’s a space for everyone in the outdoors and hope this blog inspires you to find adventure in your own backyard. Feel free to leave a comment or follow us on social media where we share a lot of paddling tips and tricks!
