KIALOA makes beautiful, cutting edge, hand-made SUP paddles from the United States since 1991. KIALOA's business philosophy still retains its Hawaiian roots, claiming Po'okela (excellence), Malama (stewardship) and Laulima (teamwork) as their core values. The IKAIKA Series is KIALOA's recognition that the field of stand up paddling is missing a line of SUP paddles made specifically for beginners, or for SUP paddlers who aren't very serious about stand-up paddling just yet but instead want to see if the sport is for them. It draws its strength and toughness from the discovery of revolutionary Continuous Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic (CFRT®) technology. CFRT supplements the performance benefits of carbon and glass fibers with the strength of thermoplastic polymers, creating light and yet effectively indestructible paddles at an incredible price.

The Methane SUP Paddle, by Kialoa has been inspired by the designs of surfboard shaper Blane "Methane" Chambers, became KIALOA's best selling SUP paddle after its release last year and is the surfers choice. Made with surfers in mind, the 8" wide blade is perfect for the quick starts, stops, and turns that come with trying to ride an SUP board in the ocean surf. Weighing in at only 21 ounces, the Methane SUP Paddle uses 100% carbon fiber construction to provide the ultimate ratio of strength to weight. Its featherweight design and construction encourages rapid cadence and a slick and quick paddle placement at all points of the SUP surfing experience. Often SUP surfers have to do quick movements with their paddles. Never has whipping the paddle to the opposite side of the paddleboard or behind you been so effortless. The unidirectional Ergo-T design provides superior blade control and fits easily and comfortably into the palm. KIALOA understands that scaling down the diameter of the shaft of the SUP paddle does not necessarily bring down strength, and utilizes this technique to create a more unique board. The blade's surface area is 97 square inches. A narrow blade with a small surface area makes quick acceleration through the surf more manageable, and also allows you to keep the blade close to your board as you stand up paddle, which accelerates forward propulsion and encourages straighter tracking. This SUP paddle's extensive product testing and lightweight framework resulted in its success and widespread use among today's stand up paddlers.

Toro SUP Paddle - Kialoa

The Toro SUP Paddle, named after the sushi cut of one of the quickest fish in the sea, the Blue Fin Tuna, is designed specifically for racing.
It features a Tahitian-style and ultra-thin teardrop blade profile with a Powerhook at the tip of the powerface for adhesion and a solid catch and a powerface dihedral for addition security in the water. The stand up paddle blade and shaft are comprised of a carbon fiber layup created specifically for racing  which results in a faster, tougher, lighter and stiffer paddle.

The Toro was designed for SUP legend Chuck Patterson and is a blend of three different prototypes. It was designed with a "catch", a pronounced curved arc in the tip area. This is there to hook up as soon as the sup paddle hits the water. It also has reduced blade thickness to minimize resistance from the water, creating better traction with the water and avoiding agitating the water into bubbles. Another interesting feature on the Toro sup paddle is its long dihedral, which raises the thin blade core to provide power. The race blades are stiff so as to maximize energy transfer, and there is a reinforcing rib on the non-powerface to reduce flex. The Toro stand up paddle is a tribute to Tahitian outrigger paddlers and is specifically inspired by the Tahitian style of design for paddles.

DJ wrote, "The paddle is extremely light.. The blade is very thin and it slips in and out of the water like no other paddle that I've ever used.. It has amazing bite with no slippage at all.. When you dig hard the stiff shaft didn't rob you of any power from flex and I feel like I need to work out more to get the most out of this paddle.
