Have you noticed the amount of stand up paddling that has been going on? At surf shop we have been noticing stand up paddle board every where we go. I first notice them at Catalina Island of So. Cal. a few years ago. Mostly I just people enjoying paddling their boards around the boats in the coves. Then I started see a girl in Marina Del Rey and there are quite a few stand up paddlers around the marina.

I stopped into a surf shop in the Marina where I saw a few stand up paddle board, to my surprise when I went into the surf shop there were quite a few boards and paddles. Pete at the surf shop told me about all the surfers that were surfing with these paddle boards. With that I started watching the surf spots from Marina Del Rey to Long Beach also the surf shops and I’ve notice on nice days there is a whole group of surfers, surfing on these stand up paddle boards.

I was just wondering if any of you out there have tried these boards and how difficult it is to get started. Anyone have any input?
