Here’s another one of those spectacular (goofy?) demo movies we produce from time to time. It shows a rather special stand up paddling technique involving hopping while paddling…
Totally useless in terms of kayaking or fishing, but it’s the best workout I can imagine.
AWESOME!!!
Amazing!

You get a workout just from watching it

Is the paddle featuring here the Wavewalk paddle?
In fact it’s a shorter, 8 ft long version that I borrowed from my kids.
With the regular size (9 ft long) Wavewalk paddle it’s easier to perform this paddle-hopping style.

So I guess it was a kind of improvisation?
Yes.
Jeff was on a visit here that day, and I planned to paddle in tandem with him so took my 9 ft paddle for him to use. I needed a second paddle for myself, and just grabbed that shorter one.
I didn’t think I’d be paddling standing on that occasion.
