Team paddlers Rob Rojas, Thomas “Maximus” Shahinian and Eric Stearns finished top 3 SUP at the U.S. Championships along with great performances by Ron Nelson and Matt Sullivan in their prone divisions. Great job guys!
After several prototypes, the 12-6 has been developed to fullfill the needs of all paddlers. Stable, fast and . . . good looking lines. 20 boards are in process in the start up. Get your orders in.
Team Paddler Jared Vargas performed his personal best of 3 hrs 58 mins winning the Rock to Rock on a 17-6 Ohana SUP. Great performance Jared.
Dane Deboer paddled his unlimited Ohana to the gate in the open race Hawaii after a direct hit on the turning buoy. Nice job Dane. Eric Stearns came in shortly winning the 14′ division. Great opener for Ohana at the BOP.
Rob Rojas finished 2 minutes ahead in the Unlimited SUP division to take 1st place at Dana Point. Could have been exciting when Rob caught an outside set coming in to the finish but had to bail to save his 19′ board from another paddler. Thanks Rob. Don’t have time to do another repair.
Thomas Shahanian took 1st today at the Coronado Loop race on his Unlimted SUP. Great job Thomas!
Ohana team paddler Tom Gallagher placed 1st overall today with a three minute margin in great downwind conditions. “Board flew big downwind” stated Gallagher.
Great Job Tom!

Sanata Barbara Downwinder was dominated by “Gallagher” with a 5 minute gap to 2nd place. Tom said he had a blast surfing on his unlimited SUP.
Jared Vargas has decided to test his abilities on an Ohana Unlimited SUP to place 1st in class. Feedback was board was fun and held its momentum well. Ohana is in process of developing shapes with Jared for Hawaiian waters.
Tom Duryea’s training on the stock prone prototype is going as expected. Watch out! Tom likes this board on his knees.
Exciting for Ohana to have both Tom and Jared aboard.
