Five minutes from my house, at Raymond Reserve, the media reports that paddle surfing is the latest craze among the water sports.
Stand up paddle surfing (SUP), stand up paddle boarding, or in the Hawaiian language Hoe he'e nalu, is an emerging global sport with a Hawaiian heritage.
I see people sit or kneel. Beginners look painfully boring, but experts surf the waves and can be very thrilling.
The sport is an ancient form of surfing, and reemerged as a way for surfing instructors to manage their large groups of students, as standing on the board gave them a higher viewpoint. This increased visibility of what was going on around them such as incoming swell.
