this is actually a really great video to show people the difference between a hulled touring type sup and a curved surfing sup, you gotta get way back on those long pointy boards.
Jeffrey Fortuna... im looking into getting a sup,looks great fun and need it for fitness. my weight is110kg wich will be the best one for me im going to be using it in lakes, can you please help me out ....thanks
Haaaa!! That's a really great contest!!! I'm loving this!! We should have a contest just like this at Hookipa Beach Park on Maui! Classic Carnage awaits!! Yeah!! to the event!! Awesome!!
Thanks for the info. I live just above cottons point in SC and have had tons of hate from the shortboarder crowd. Like you mentioned, I'm one of those people who has short boards, fun boards, long boards, and SUPs and just like the ability to surf in any given condition. Not sure why people have an issue with that. Thanks for the reply.
Nice, fun looking swell. If I close my eyes, I can picture being on another break around the coast a bit, somewhere else from that melee. “I would rather sit on a pumpkin, and have it all to myself, than be crowded on a velvet cushion.” ― Henry David Thoreau
My experience at Doheny was near Jetty it's tolerated, a 100 yds further south is surfers. To the point one said you're suppose to be south farther by the other supper's. I thanked him for the advice but my skill level is not at head high yet.
congratulations OC Parks and Rainbow sandles for providing a safe venue for this event. what a joke .. ban Rainbow ! PS: i hope next year the surf is even bigger
Most of them have, maybe only a few have not. This is 7 minutes of video from a whole two days of SUP racing. All the races started and ended on the beach but some traveled as much as 9.5 miles. Most of the race was open flat ocean so a faster/longer board was needed for overall speed. Going fast for the distance and then crashing in the surf was still much faster overall than surfing the waves but going slow in the open ocean.
Even the top three ranked paddlers in the world, guys who have surfed Jaws like Kai Lenny, took a beating. When you're on a 12'6" or 14' board with lots of volume and no rocker you're going to eat it.
No puedo entender cómo nadie sale herido con tanta tabla chocando contra otros y con los "cuchillos" de las orzas danzando entre las olas. Si se trataba de una carrera el organizador al no dosificar la salida creo que fue algo imprudente. Seguro que se buscaba el espectáculo del sinfín de caídas. Otra conclusión que saco es que la ligereza de las tablas tiene su punto débil a la hora de embestir y chocar contra las rompientes, vuelan por el poco peso, aunque si hubiesen sido más pesadas lesionados hubiese habido seguro, ya que supongo que la ligereza hace que el impacto sea poco más que recibir el de una colchoneta. Por cierto que ya se ha inventado la tabla de casco doble que yo imaginaba posible, un tipo se vé en una gris.
Take up b.a.s.e. jumping, skydiving, rock climbing.....but fucking playing with birds? Leave birds alone bro, let them fly, leave them be in nature as they should be.
That's racist. Who cares what color they were. Plenty of non-haoles there competing and eating it, too. BTW, it was a race where you had to paddle out and back in through the surf.
Hey Jeffrey, I just bought a SUP ATX 10'6 surfing style SUP to use in the San Clemente/Dana Point area for surfing. What the hell is up with all these hateful opinions towards SUPs? Where can one go to SUP surf without all these mouth breathers giving you crap? I want to avoid getting in a confrontation out on the water. It's like these commenters have a fatwa against SUPers. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.
christian seely I'd say part of the hate is just RUclips in general, the comments tend to get negative. Also people love to talk big online, you'll see some hate directed at SUP surfing in the line up but much less than online. Many people that love the surf have surfboards, longboards and also a SUP they surf, when you're at a punchy beachbreak of the surf is great you ride your shortboards, when you're at a mellow point or the surf is just fun you might ride something longer and when is really small you pay on your SUP. Other people stick to just one size board and some of those people hate on others that ride something different. Doheny and Old Mans tend to have a good mix of longboards and SUP surfers playing well together. Have fun out there!
RENAME; BATTLE OF THE KOOK!!! Damn not one surfer in the lot what a poor show for one of my fav spots! If it wasn't so cold I'd leave Hilo come mainlan and jam my blade into some of those boards yous guyz don't belong!!! Kapu!!!
This is the ultimate in stupidity these SUP boards are not wave riding boards they are open water rigs to put so many of these in an event is just plain stupid people can get killed by these 12 ft plus lethal weapons half of the riders have no surf skills at all, how to give SUP a bad name in one event. YES i ride a SUP.
jazzysnaps you are half correct.. I totally understand what your getting at....SUP should be in the surf as long as its NOT anything more than 10ft and Laird did make this kook Sport fly.. This tournament is just plain stupid.... I do SUP but not in close proximity to anyone esle and I'm mindful of who is around me... I use to go out and jump on my 5'8 and my 6'0" which i still have and use occasionally... But now with my back problems it makes it really hard for me to use those two boards.....I do feel like a kook when I'm out on my SUP sometimes not always or when young kids laugh at me. Lol.. I just tell them hey you don't like my miniature foot boat.
as a grom that grew up surfing creek this is saddening for our break. The locals that I look up to and have taken care of me since I was a young guy are so saddened by this as well. These guys do a lot of work to make sure our beach is clean and no kooks show up but this is like a fucking kook convention! It's too bad I just left for college a couple months ago cause I would've enjoyed putting "battle of the paddle is gay" stickers on every one's car. A friend had to do it for me :) so sad that creek has turned into a zoo
On behalf of all the paddlers I'd like to apologize for kooking up your beloved break. I hope with time your break will heal and return to a surfer only wave and beach. My car was parked in the main Salt Creek parking lot all day (6am-6am) both days the the BOP and I did not get a "Battle of the Paddle is gay" sticker, if I give you my mailing address are their any stickers left that I could get?
got some angry ocean sweepers in here do we? HA. And I didn't make the stickers, the locals did who have been surfing there for 30+ years. We're getting sick of more dangerous people crowding the lineup and that goes ESPECIALLY for SUPS. They're fucking stupid. That is all. :)
Tyler Vertrees I surf the creek and sup too but I never sup at salt creek. Beside this event which I agree should never had been at the creek to begin with but who the fucks sup's at salt creek? I never see any sup'ers there, ever. Salt creek in general is full of a lot of cunts, seriously. Some are cool but most are douchebags and it has nothing to do with sup because nobody sups there, maybe rare occasions but I never see it. So why are so many surfers at sc cunts. Weak ass fuckers.
Tyler Vertrees ....They're having fun, what's the harm? Isn't that what going to the beach is all about? And maybe they're not good at surfing but they can do this. It gets them out there and exercising while having fun with like minded people, and if some are just goofing around, so what?
O M G This was way too embarrassing to keep watching, what a colossal waste of time, energy and money and this is somehow considered to be fun? I'll ride longboards for fun but will never, ever, ever sup. Geez, the mere thought is making me sick ...
this is actually a really great video to show people the difference between a hulled touring type sup and a curved surfing sup, you gotta get way back on those long pointy boards.
what means sup?
Stand Up Paddleboarding

Great video! We were there and it was definitely crazy. We're just happy no one was seriously injured.
Welcome to Salt Creek!
I'm glad no one got killed.
What's with the positive comment? Did you not get the memo to only leave comments if you have something hateful or derogatory to add?
+ik kap he was being sarcastic lmao
I have a feeling that my old windsurf longboard would do well there. ;¬)
Looks like soooo much fun ! greets from cold Swiss
My experience at Doheny was near Jetty it's tolerated, a 100 yds further south is surfers. To the point one said you're suppose to be south farther by the other supper's. I thanked him for the advice but my skill level is not at head high yet.
+Destination360 You can surf wherever you want as long as you are doing it safely and not endangering others. No one owns the water.
6:42 = pure beauty. Keep boats out of the lineup!
Briefly, I thought this was an episode of most extreme challenge.
The ding repair guys love this
Mr Bagman Asian massage parlors too.
congratulations OC Parks and Rainbow sandles for providing a safe venue for this event. what a joke .. ban Rainbow ! PS: i hope next year the surf is even bigger
6:45 is what you are here for.
+Jake Atherly That's where the carnage was. Thanks for the tip!
Have more than a handful of these paddlers had any experience in waves before?
Most of them have, maybe only a few have not. This is 7 minutes of video from a whole two days of SUP racing. All the races started and ended on the beach but some traveled as much as 9.5 miles. Most of the race was open flat ocean so a faster/longer board was needed for overall speed. Going fast for the distance and then crashing in the surf was still much faster overall than surfing the waves but going slow in the open ocean.
in another 20 years i can easily see this being added to the special olympics.
At least I know I'm not the only one. Everytime I paddle I feel like I'm the only newb out there.
how many people got killed that day?
+Branden Lanfeld zero cuz the waves were 3ft
It's Stand Up Paddle, not Stand Up Surf. I put a helmet on to watch this and still got concussioned!
how many people died?
Too much crowd but awesome
No entiendo como nadie sale lesionado de no recibir la embestida de los demás
Lo mismo he pensado
0:45 phase there was a shark!
Why couldn't these kooks stick to Crossfit?
so kooky!
They're SUPing on goat boats. Kook city
I don't think I have ever seen so many kooks in one place at one time holy shit!
DP Surfer Says the kook with the profile name "DP surfer" hahaha
the lulz, you mad much bro?
99% of those kooks did NOT belong in the ocean. next battle of the paddle should be called, take to the lake. get out of the surf!!!
A total clusterfuck for sure, but those are not surfboards. 99.9% of good surfers could not ride one effectively in waves like this, including you.
Even the top three ranked paddlers in the world, guys who have surfed Jaws like Kai Lenny, took a beating. When you're on a 12'6" or 14' board with lots of volume and no rocker you're going to eat it.
Good thing we can do whatever the fuck we want. Who died and put you in charge?
RIP headphone users and RIP sup users

Demolition S.U.P.
Jesus I've never seen so many kooks together in one place.
I've also had 15 years experience doing real surfing. Two of them as a professional. Now I enjoy other things.
Take up b.a.s.e. jumping, skydiving, rock climbing.....but fucking playing with birds? Leave birds alone bro, let them fly, leave them be in nature as they should be.
The picture was taken at a rehabilitation centre which I donate money to. Eagles are awesome.
Yes they are. Best wishes.
Yes you have.
The battle of Balls.
R.I.P Headphone users.
They can't surf because there mostly inflatables and don't have enough fins to help them be stabilized
if someone dropped a nuke on this competition i wouldn't have been mad
There's some badly organised mayhem - boards and heads don't mix
AAWW definitely helmet situation.
Like the girl surfer though - lol
come to ze race 2015 in the French west indies Guadeloupe is more fun
It's a Kookvention....
Uuuuuuhh, why did they have a bunch of haoles try to paddle through that shit and try to get one in hahaha
That's racist. Who cares what color they were. Plenty of non-haoles there competing and eating it, too. BTW, it was a race where you had to paddle out and back in through the surf.
I had to look up 'haoles' on urban dictionary.
Jeffrey Fortuna Without breath. Without soul. It's not a compliment.
Stay at Dog Patch Kooks. Stay away from trestles! Take that kook Laird with you.
Thanks for the advice!
Jeffrey Fortuna Dude, NONE of these pussies leaving comments would ever talk this shit in person face to face, ever. they're weak and they know it.
cannot believe they closed the break that perfect day of surf for that bullshit

do people realise how dangerous this is. i would want to be 100m down the beach away from carnage

Mike Sluyter You're OLD. ENough said.

thats a deth trap

Yet one one was killed.
Every time I see someone with an oar it just pisses me off.
Then you have anger issues.
This makes me laugh. If they want to stay up in the waves maybe they should bend their knees Or just go to a damn lake

This was way too embarrassing to keep watching, what a colossal waste of time, energy and money and this is somehow considered to be fun? I'll ride longboards for fun but will never, ever, ever sup. Geez, the mere thought is making me sick ...
Dear god that is the most stupid thing i have seen, sups are not design for that kinda surf, what were they thinking?
How did no one DIE??? HAHAHA, what a useless sport.
Why they do this stupid thing
It's just dangerous, Not funny at all
