So, reading this headline you must have thought this post is about yet another guy paddling standing in his W kayak, but this time it’s not…
Stand up paddle boards are becoming increasingly popular among surfers, which use special, extra-long single blade paddles to paddle and surf standing.
Jason Starr, from Vermont got himself a double-blade 9′ 4″ long Wavewalk paddle, and this is what he wrote us:
-”I’ve attached a photo of me using the paddle on a Stand Up Paddleboard near Rye, N.H. I really enjoyed having a paddle on both ends and think it’s an advantage over the single blade paddles. Especially when standing facing forward when paddling for speed or on flatwater.
-Jason”
This is REALLY cool!!

I happened to watch surfers paddling standing on their boards, and I had a feeling that somehow the new sport they were practicing had to meet Wavewalk.
Looks promising
