WHO WE ARE
In 2010, our family bought our first Quickblade paddles and since then we’ve been catching waves, chasing draft trains, riding bumps, teaching dogs and humans to paddle, and sharing aloha with everyone we’ve met along the way
Our stoke for surfing, stand up paddling, and a lifetime dedication to an active lifestyle outfitted by the best equipment, led us to open the first “stand up” specialty shop in NC to support the sport and help the community thrive.
We believe in Southern hospitality, Hawaiian aloha and that life is too short for bad gear. Join the SUO ohana and experience our special brand of Southern Aloha.
See you on the water,
Charley, Kate, Betsy and Georgie
