I met up with Joe Blair initially last October at Legoland in San Diego. Joe is a very animated guy and has decades of shaping experience with legends like Dick Brewer and Xanadu. Anytime I hear a shaper tell me how good their boards are I take it with a grain of salt. I finally […]

I finally got around to getting these pictures online. I was at Ala Moana Courts the second to last week of February and had a fun but uneventful session. The tide was really low. At Ala Moana you need to walk over a long reef to get to the break and going out the water […]
Ok…I know this has nothing to do with stand up paddling but if you’re wondering where I get the music that I add to the videos on this site, wonder no more. It’s original slack key guitar compositions from my brother, Darin. This clip is from his latest appearance on Night Time with Andy Bumatai […]
Anyone know anything about this? I got this email from Jeff.
I stopped in Wet Feet Hawaii the other day to demo some side bite fins (FCS Vector II) and get a different center fin and noticed that they changed the store. The ceiling is now expanded and the boards are standing up. They also have new boards like the Titus Kinimaka Aviso all carbon stand […]
Here’s a picture from HawaiianWaterShots.com of my stand up paddle buddy out at Chun’s Reef on February 16. I was on Maui for the Pono Bill KeNalu.com big board test but heard the surf was epic on Oahu. I’ve always been amazed at his unusual and unorthodox stance. Yes, he’s standing the same as if […]
Disclaimer: This is not a production C4 paddle. What happens when you mix a C4 paddle and a circular saw? You get the Diamond E model paddle – named by me. I have to say that I love this paddle for surfing. So far, it has the best ‘feel’ for me personally. This paddle has […]
This is the video that Surftech played at ASR. It gives a pretty cool view of different ways that people can stand up paddle. I like the river shot and the dude giving the girl in the bikini a lesson. (click thumbnail to launch video)
I found another video from C4 that was shot with 4 cameras. I guess the full version will be out soon. There’s a lot of SUP promotion these days. (click thumbnail to launch video)
World’s first big-wave stand-up paddle contest goes off at Makaha February 15, 2008 CONDITIONS: Pleasant, warm Makaha surf; six to 15 foot Hawaiian. Aloha everywhere.
Haleiwa Bill found this video on youtube from the big wave Ku Ikaika Challenge. I think Nate got some additional footage at www.SUPSurfMag.com coming up in the future. I’m bummed I couldn’t go to the event but I had a lot of last minute things to take care of before going to Maui for Pono […]
I don’t know how else to say this but I’m scared of big waves. My ‘big’ is double overhead and up. I’m less scared on the South Shore and more on the North Shore because the waves are so much stronger. The part that really bugs me is getting held under the wave after wiping […]
