Are there other brands of paddle board shorts out there other than xcel. Cant find any on the web. Looking for regular boardshorts with the neoprene padding not the spandex type
.

Here is my latest little self indulgent video project, It's made up of a collection of video clips I collected over summer paddling on my favourite bit of ocean and put to the music of my one of my favourite Aussie bands the Hoodoo Gurus.

Enjoy.

I'm a marathon river racer in Texas . I have an OC1 . I'll be in Kauai June 1 - 8 . I would very much like to find someone with a couple of boats willing to let me paddle with them . I have a long race upon my return home and would like to get out for a few hours in something other than a plastic clunky rent a kayak and an infidel double blade . Certainly willing to provide some compensation. Someone take pity on a poor mainlander ?
