Hey Guys,

I believe we will be seeing a few of your paddles coming down with First Point for the OG Demo Day???

I am hanging out to try one out!

Do you do a narrower paddle like the methane???

Working with the design team - so possibility is high

Sounds like I was given the right advice of paddle KIA KAHA,and locally made
OG,as good a paddle as you will find.Oh and they made custom,your girls are going to look sweet with PINK blades

Ben surfed really well down here.

What were the waves like up there for the comp?

The waves were about 2ft but nice little A frame left & Right banks - glassy for our finals - sun was shining and it was lots of fun. It was great to watch some great surfing with a couple of helicopters pulled off by Keahi.

Keahi's Mum has got footage so when he has loaded that I am sure he will put it up.

Cant go wrong with a Kia Kaha. Mine has been sliding around in the back of the ute, bashed around in the surf and is still sweet. Great paddles.
