A morning paddle on Kauai with a great friend...(6th May 2010)

Aussie Wahine: I first tried SUP in May 2007 when some guy named Darrick Doerner (little did I know) on the North Shore of Oahu left his board and paddle with us for the day to try out....I was intrigued from then on!! Then Christmas 2007 Santa gave me and himself SUP boards and paddles and now I'm hooked !! I love to surf and also paddle and race distance for fitness and fun. I love Stand Up Paddling because it keeps me in the present moment...in the "Now" and stops me from thinking. Thinking of the past or of the future. There is only the "Now" and what's going on around me in the ocean. And that is a very relaxing and peaceful way to be. I'm a photographer who has paddled Outrigger Canoes since 1991. I have travelled alot and met many great friends in Australia and overseas because of paddling. I am married to my soul mate who is an amazing waterman, Danny, and we have two beautiful boys. We travel to Hawaii at least twice a year to race outriggers and now SUP. We have the perfect lifestyle. I love the ocean and all the adventures it creates !!
