one last quick sesh with the homemade, just picked up the new kialoa 'pu, but didn't want to tRash it at dumpy mets.. my old man was there to snap a few shots...
Kneel down and pray to Jimmy, you are not worthy,
yay
doh out of focus pops
need to try and paddle over these.
who said supping was gay
lazy stance
Sick photos Miller! Lucky you didnt wait until I finished work. A 20 knot southerly
Check the bomb out the back in this photo!
Great pictures Windy M... Congrats on the new Kialoa Shaka Pu'u paddle... You're gunna love it I'm sure.. 
The Kialoa Shaka and your old Naish paddle are like chalk and cheese.. There's no need to grunt it through the water.
The Shaka is nore about finesse and cadence.
You may find it flutters a little at first because you're pushing it too hard.. Just back off a smidge and after you're used to it you wont get any flutter.
Let us know what you think... You will probably change your paddling technique slightly with the new paddle.
Every time I use mine I think about how much I love it...

going to pop th 'pu's cherry in the morn cant wait...
yeah , defo on the chalk n cheeze.. the shaft of the homemade paddle is the top end of a pre peg carbon skinny windsurf mast = no flex what so ever, but it does have INCREDiBLE power + the naish blade on it has a lot more area...it's gonna feel weird ...
so with the finesse and cadence, are we talking increase the stokes and maybe don't dip the whole blade in when powering up for a wave????
