THE OAHU PADDLEBOARD
The Oahu nose rider series is one of the best all around stand up paddle boards because it combines art and function into a single SUP.

It’s made from an epoxy fiberglass sandwich construction of bamboo veneer and EPS. All the components are reinforced with Corebrace™, which are high-density PVC foam inserts that are integrated into the core of the board itself. The board also features SeaMount® which is the first patented accessory attachment system for stand-up paddleboards. SeaMount® makes it simple to add cup holders, paddle clips, and easy to thread bungee tie-downs that are strong and robust.
Pau Hana Surf Supply has been a pioneer of the stand-up paddleboard Industry since 2007 and the Oahu SUP has been one of the best selling and most popular boards in the paddleboard category. The Woody construction is a beautifully crafted epoxy board that is completely wrapped with 100% wood veneers of Cherry Burl and other exotic wood grains. The EPX construction is a light-weight classic build with multiple color options and a smooth glossy finish.
