KIALOA is a sponsor of the inaugural YOLO Board Stand Up Paddle Series. The races started on July 17th and will end on September 18, 2008. The initial race was at Oyster Lake at Santa Rosa Beach Florida.
Four member teams compete in three heats as they vie for the champion title “YOLO Board Cup Series” to be awarded after the final race in September. The YOLO Board Stand-Up Paddle Series is free and open to the public.
With two races in the series completed the event is a great success. With ten participating teams and at least 150 attendees, the initial two-hour event ended with a magnificent sunset over Oyster Lake. The teams will continue on to compete in the third race slated for Thursday, August 14, 2008 at 6 pm at Watercolor Boathouse on Western Lake in Florida. The remaining race dates (weather permitting) are: August 14th, August 28th & September 18th. Visit http://www.yoloboard.com/
“Thanks so much to KIALOA for supporting the YOLO Board Race Series!” said event coordinator and YOLO owner, Jeff Archer. “Our first event was a huge success, due in large part, to your generosity. Kialoa Paddles were everywhere!! Gary Wise is the current Florida State Paddleboard Champion--he loves his [Kialoa] Shaka Pu!”
