Getting Started with Standup Longboarding...On a Whim! #standuplongboarding

First video where I try standup longboarding using an old kayak paddle! On a whim decided to try combining kayaking with longboarding.

Intent was to be able to workout and gain more endurance to prepare for upcoming kayak fishing trips to local lakes.

Had an old kayak paddle in the garage; dusted it off and added some padding and duct tape for traction. Then, grabbed a "certain somebody's" longboard and headed to the elementary school parking lot.

Worked well... later made a paddlestick using PVC. Worked well, too.  Liking this Standup Longboarding!
