It&#8217;s always a privilege, even just looking at a little school of fish, or a nice reef.

But proper hydration is even more critical for Stand Up Paddle Surfing, because hydration has a profound effect on balance. Try this simple test.

		<description><![CDATA[Rudder or no Rudder
It&#8217;s immediately obvious when paddling behind a long board like the Penetrator that rudders are a necessary evil. Tap the rudder and the board slews a little sideways. That can&#8217;t be good. So the plan generally is to minimize use, at least in flatwater. In swells, the rudder is necessary on a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[George Herbert said that sometime in the 1600&#8217;s, still true today. Stand Up Paddle Surfing has plenty of detractors, none of whom have the slightest idea of what SUP really is.
For example, yesterday started off inauspiciously. The North Shore of Maui was due for a decent swell, so I rousted myself early. Ho&#8217;okipa was closed [...]]]></description>
