Karen’s new present from Jimmy Lewis on Maui.
Jimmy Lewis is currently producing a new 14′ Downwind board called the Maliko that is pretty popular. So popular in fact, that we haven’t even seen one in person yet and we already have an order for one. Karen has been looking for her perfect 12’6 for awhile now, and her search ended today when she unwrapped her new 12’6 custom board that Jimmy sent her. She wanted a board that is low profile and doesn’t get blown around easily by side wind, light and easy to carry, and most importantly…FAST!
Have fun on your new board Karen!

Do you have a hard-to-shop-for standup paddler in your life? If so, then we have good news for you. Wet Feet Hawaii has tons of holiday shopping ideas for you. Come on by the shop, and we will be happy to help you figure out something to get the person who seems to have everything. In the meantime, here are a few suggestions…
1. Sweet Waterwear.
Wet Feet is proud to carry Sweet Waterwear. Features of these tanks and paddleshirts include: UPF 50+, are quickdrying, are cut specifically with paddling in mind, and are very flattering. For a limited time, get a free Sweet Waterwear trucker hat with purchase of a paddleshirt.
2. Board Protection Kit
We all love our paddleboards and want to keep them looking nice for as long as possible. We have several products designed to keep your board looking like new. Rail savers by Puka Patch protect the rails from dings and chipped paint, while nose and tailguards by Surfco make sure that your board is safe during transport. Finally to protect your paddle, we have Paddle Guard Kits by Surfco.
3. Gift Certificates
Give the gift of fitness with certificates for our Spring and Race Season Training Programs. Gift Certificates are also available for our Molokai Training Group, our new Eco Tours and our Standup Paddleboard Rentals.
4. Standup Paddleboards
Want to make someone’s Holiday season? Nothing says “I Love You” like a new standup paddleboard. We carry several different models and manufacturers, including: Surftech, Boardworks (C4, Paddle Surf Hawaii), Starboard, Jimmy Lewis, and Blair among others. Come check out our in store inventory and see what we can do for you.
We wish all of you a Happy Holiday Season, and hope that we can help you pick out that perfect gift. Come by the shop to celebrate the Holidays with us!
Have questions about how to size a paddle, or which paddle is right for you? This video of Jim Terrell at the Battle of the Paddle should help…
We get a lot of questions here in the shop about standup paddle gear. Here is a video that shows some of my favorite gear for standup paddling.
With the Molokai Channel race fast approaching, everyone seems to be getting all their bits and peices together in preparation. If you are anything like me, an ipod is quite possibly the most essential peice of equipment next to the board and the paddle for a channel crossing (or any other race for that matter…).

I happened to stumble upon the H20 audio site this morning and saw that they have a sale on the 3rd generation ipod nano cases. 20 bucks is pretty hard to beat, so I thought I would give the heads up to anyone who might be looking for a way to take your music with you while you paddle.
If you would like to do some sea sweeping of your own, come into Wet Feet and ask us about our Eco Bags! Bags that are designed to carry trash that you pick up while you are out stand up paddling.
