Kai's board
« on: February 18, 2013, 06:00:11 PM »
Just snagged this picture from the slideshow on sup surf mag.com.  Does anyone have the dimensions on the board Kai was riding in the contest?  Looks like the rest of the Naish team are on fairly stock boards, but Kai's is anything but stock.  Wow, that thing looks so sick! 

Here is the link to the slideshow:

I just ask Kai for details..I will update as soon as I hear back.  I know it's working title is Hokua LE.

Super sick looking for sure.

It does, in fact it looks like a shrunken version of mine, but I'm sure it isn't.

It may well be a DK board - Dave has been helping Kai a bunch lately.
Easy Rider is the name of my store in Edmonton, AB, Canada.
My name is Warren Currie . . . and we SUP Surf indoors . . . in a shopping mall!

That's awesome. So cool that he and Dave have that collaboration. Wish I knew exactly how tiny that thing was. Looks like its got a lot of tail rocker too.

Pono, you got my interest.  What do you have?  DK hand shape?

I think it looks like a Hokua for sure. Might be the evolution of it.
