SUP Gear Reviews / Newly Acquired / On Order / Kings Custom Crossover with wings

« on: April 10, 2017, 06:38:34 AM »

Worked with Dave Daum to create the best board for me and my abused body (broken back, blown ACL & some neurological issues.) I canʻt walk around on a board anymore so itʻs basically paddle in step back and go. Iʻm 62, 6ʻ1" 255lbs (in Hawaii itʻs called "powerfully built" here itʻs "Husky".)  Dave heard me and created this wonderful board 9ʻ9" x 35" x 4.5" 185L stepped rails. It works beautifully. The image in the nose is Duke at SanO in the 40s itʻs printed onto 1oz matte and laminated into the board.  Hope you enjoy it. See you out at Dog Patch and Pink Poles.

SUP General / San Onofre - Move the "OK" Signs Update

« on: November 30, 2016, 07:05:56 PM »

Aloha Everybody:

An update

The response from the SanO Surfing Club;  they basically said that Rich Haydon, South Sector Superintendent, said the State’s position has not changed, nor has their opinion changed on any modification to the hand held paddle boundary.
 
The Club says that they do not have the authority to define that boundary and/or relocate the OK signs.
 
It would be so much easier for the Lifeguards if the boundary was moved … Lifeguards could concentrate on their primary jobs instead of trying to chase the SUP’s and waveski’s from in front of the pink poles.  
 
The State needs to hear from as many SUPs and Waveskis as possible – so please pass this on.  
 
Please forward this e-mail to fellow SUPs and Waveskis, and print it out and pass it on, or call / text your SUP friends and pass it on.
 
Please take the time to call or write the following to move the OK Signs:
 
 
Richard M. Haydon, South Sector Superintendent, Orange Coast District 
(939) 492-0802
California State Beach Lifeguards / Park Rangers at San Onofre Surf Beach
3030 Avenida Del Presidente
San Clemente, CA  92672
 
Todd Lewis, Orange Coast District Superintendent  
(949) 494-0802
California State Beach Lifeguards / Park Rangers at San Onofre Surf Beach
PO Box 942896
Sacramento, CA  94296-0001
 
 San Onofre Surfing Club,  
Matt Brady mattbradyaia@yahoo.com>, and 
Jim Wynne <jim@johnston-pacific.com>
PO Box  324, 
San Clemente, CA   92674 
 
People have taken a lot of time and effort on behalf of the larger community of SanO SUPs / Waveskis … now we need YOU to take your time to help!
 
The OK signs need to be moved before summer, when the lifeguards will be enforcing them.

Mahalo for getting involved

SUP General / Antique Paddle board Stolen

« on: July 26, 2012, 04:48:57 PM »

I posted this last year and still have no leads to reposting with a pic.
The board was taken from the Rim of the World Historical Society Mountain Museum last year when it was moved for cleanup of the Display area.
It's possibly be a Tom Blake board but is a piece of Lake Arrowhead History so any info could help.
Thanks so much

SUP General / Looking for a Spinal Doctor in So. Cal

« on: August 26, 2010, 04:46:32 PM »

Aloha,
 Just got back from getting the results from my MRI and need to consult with a Spinal Specialist who is a proponent of SUP (my MD agrees with this, he's good) Any suggestions are greatly appreciated
