Hi Guys,

Well while opinions have been espoused as to double paddles for standup,
there are those who have been actually using them (for 4 years) and developing the needed mechanical patent to make the paddles work like a dream. It's called "The Dynamic Rotating Grip, (DRG) ".

Double paddles for standup are really fun in Small surf. Improves reflex paddle placement, good cross training (you'll see) Double paddles for standup are FASTER. 5 seconds quicker at 100 yards.
Double paddles for standup present double the workout in half the time using muscles you would never imagine ! Going straight without having to constantly realign a course is very useful.

Paul Nichol and Jason Gava have a couple south of Sydney.

Aloha !

next thing they will be sitting down on the board, then putting a little cover over your legs

I ain't no SUP fan, but I use more a double-paddle than the normal one.

The one I use is an odd shaped, longish kayak thing. I use it kneeling (one knee), and it has a lot of pull. Makes the sport more symmetrical, I find.
