Here are some shots from Thursday, June 18, 2009 ...


The ladies get ready, including from left to right, Andrea, Paula, a mystery lady (help me out!) and Laura



Chistophe of http://miamikiteboarding.com/ is FAST on these things, has an interesting stance too



There goes Mike Hirooka of http://www.hirookasurfandsport.com/ He was saying he felt like he was being watched, hmmm ... well don't look down! Those GoPros are popping up all over.



Garry Mink of www.fuacatasports.com the NA and SA distributor for all these great Jimmy Lewis boards comes in. The girls rip loose with a paddle propelled water fight. Well not really. A shrimper, a real little one, heads out.



Dad takes on his daughters in a pitched paddle race



Chris runs the proceedings along with some able help



Laura and Paula go to it. NOTE: be careful about reaching too far out or heaving too hard on SUP (or kayak) paddles. You might mess your shoulder up! It can sneak up on you.



Andrea and Paula sqaure off as Tom ref's



Fun for the whole family
