Kai’s tip for the weekend: paddle with one hand… and don’t paddle too often… having some fun with the boys our last run down the gorge. Thanks to team @puakeadesigns for taking great care of us and to all the sponsors made this possible. #sendit #rylandspaddlingtoohard @puakeadesigns @virusintl_hi @404basecamp @onitpro @vestpac @loveavasol @virusintl @firstendurance @makani_fins #firstendurance #makanifins #404sup #404basecamp #virusintl #vestpac #onitpro #loveavasol #puakeadesigns #puakeateamrider #puakeaadventures #itsaboutlifestyle
