Heralded from New Zealand and Australia, to Waikiki and California’s shores as The Duke of surfing, (move over John Wayne) is native Hawaiian, Duke Kahanamoku. A competition swimmer, Duke easily won Gold and Silver medals in the 1912 Stockholm Olympics and went on to popularize the ancient Hawaiian sport of surfing - and as early as the 1940’s used the technique of stand-up paddleboarding to deliver surf instruction in low surf. In the 1990’s the technique merited its own lesson, aside from wave surfing. In 2003 the introduction of Stand Up to the “Buffalo Big Board Contest” was met with overwhelming popularity. Since then, boards have been designed specifically for Stand Up Paddleboarding. Thanks Duke! We salute you, while trying not to fall off our boards!
