Pierce Brosnan + Jennifer Aniston -What are they Doing?

Pierce Brosnan Paddle Surfing

Jennifer Aniston Paddle SurfingIt's called stand up paddle surfing, or SUP. And once the celebs do it, it's likely on the way of becoming a trend. Isn't that how it usually works?

Stand up Paddle Surfing
And here we go! I opened the October issue of Coastal Living Magazine (check out my Review) and see that Stand up Paddle Surfing has already made it's way from Hollywood to the quiet Golf waters of Florida's West Coast. Now non-surfers like me can get "on board" too. It does look like a fun way to exercise, what do you think?

For information on renting a board visit Yolo Board, and for a behind the scene look, go to Coastal Living's Daily Catch.

  2. It has become quite popular here in Coronado. The other day I was coming across the bridge and there was obviously a SUP class going on because there were, like, 50 people on boards in the bay. I tried it once, but the day I did it, the water was a little choppy and I did not want to go into the water, so I stopped. Everyone I know who does it, loves it.

    Huh? I hadn't seen those photos. Looks like fun, although I'm pretty sure I would spend more time in the water than up on the board.

  7. I like that Pierce has his wee safety ankle gadget on to stop him losing his board if he falls off!

  8. It does look fun but I think I would trip and fall into the ocean. I don't Jennifer would like that very much if that happened to her.

  10. It's also made it's way to Wrightsville Beach, NC! I think it is much milder than surfing, wind surfing or kite surfing! ;-)

  15. Do you still have to balance on the board? That's been my problem - even when I haven't had a drink.

    Hi "Cape House" and all others, re: what you wrote:

    I'm pretty sure I would spend more time in the water than up on the board.

    NO WAY, my 80 year old mom does it, as do my two teenage daughters and my wife's 4-yr. old grandson!!

    Piece of cake, you actually have to TRY to fall off these VERY stable boards.... cheers, clay
