And this is the second part of the super stability demo video:
This is our latest wave walking video (2 minutes long):
The ocean didn’t deliver big waves that day at Jenness Beach, NH, so we had to surf play using a more subtle technique. Anyway, there’s hardly ever a dull moment when you’re wave walking in the surf. You can always find new challenges that don’t necessarily involve surfing but rather measuring your skills against the waves in various angles, turning sharply, and more. Even staying in place while being battered by small breakers can be fun, if you know what you’re doing. If you don’t you lose balance and may end up swimming, but that’s no big deal, really.
As promised, Wavewalk is now offering new stand up paddles.
Our stand up paddle line includes single blade and double blade paddles.

SUP 7 and SUP 6.1 single blade stand up paddles

The video also shows some ‘warming up’ exercise: Jumping up and down in the cockpit.
This image taken from the video clearly shows the W wave created by the W Kayak bow:
