The pioneer waterman, who introduced stand up paddle boarding to the US, spent ten days in the resort paddle surfing some of the beaches he used to compete on during his long competitive career.

SoCal Ocean Racing Series
October 2nd, 2008 by admin
We got this email from Cheance:
Hey Folks!
I come to you by way of Chris Koerner who suggested I give you the calendar for the SoCalOceanRacing series.
We are a 9-race winter series open to all types of paddlecraft. We started about 10 or more years ago- some of us did anyway, hosting races for surfskis, then solo outriggers joined the parade, and then the tandem outriggers wanted to play, then paddle boarders trickled in, and now along comes the SUP brigade! It’s awesome!

10th Annual Christian Surfers/Hawaiian Island Surf Ministries Standup Paddle Race
September 26th, 2008 by admin
Here’s some info about the race from Art:
It was rather short, in the interest of safety. It started at about 2:40 pm and launched from the jetty inside the channel where people come and go from bowls. They basically sprinted to the last outside green buoy (approx 1/4 mile), made a turn and came back. We set up 2 buoys near the wall for them to paddle thru for the finish. We decided on 3 divisions. 12′ and under, over 12′, and age 17 and under, so the children would have a chance to win.

I haven’t gotten any date for the board release but it hopefully will be by Q1 2009.
