In preparation for the Wet Feet Blue Planet race coming up on Sept. 14th, we will paddle out to Portlock Point again for some more rough water paddling.
Please note: meeting time is 5 PM at the Hawaii Kai boat ramp.
Instead of the regular time trial course, we will paddle up to Portlock point and then around the point, upwind in the rough waters for as far as you like, then return to the boat ramp.

Here are some photos from the 2014 Duke’s OceanFest distance race. The race is officially titled the Hawaii Paddleboard Championships but it’s easier to call it the Duke’s race. This year had pretty good wind but a hard opposing tide. There was also a South swell bringing in head high waves which made this a bit harder to navigate although at the end it was great for paddlers that caught a wave all the way to shore from the outside.

CONNOR BAXTER WINS
THE ULTIMATE SUP SHOWDOWN
FOR THE 2ND CONSECUTIVE YEAR!
Recap by Connor Baxter
The 2014 Honolua Surf Co’s Ultimate SUP Showdown was by far one of the best organized events I have ever been to. First of all – Most all of the top surf and race competitors that were invited were at the event. The heats in both surf and race were on time. They stuck to the schedule. Then there is the fact that CBS Sports was there and is going to televise the event on Prime Time TV. Continue reading ‘CONNOR WINS THE ULTIMATE SUP SHOWDOWN’
