The Hawaiian translation means standup paddle surfing. In Hawaiian, ‘hoe’ means paddle… ‘he’e’ means to surf or slide…and ‘nalu’ means wave. Stand-up Paddleboarding is a rebirth of an old surfing sport popularized by the Waikiki ‘beach boys’ – but you don’t need crashing waves to enjoy this sport – it’s all about paddling and the glide, perfect on Sierra lakes. Stand-up paddleboarding is gaining momentum on Lake Tahoe, come join us for a sport that is a good workout – and a beautiful way to tour the lake!
The Second Annual Ta-Hoe Nalu Stand-Up Paddle Classic will be held on August 16 at Tahoe Recreation Park in Tahoe Vista. This event will be a fun recreational open class, with plenty of activities throughout the day. For information, ta-hoenalu.com/about_us.html.
