Aloha,
Our team Purelight, have been very fortunate to be able to use Kialoa paddles, in our practice and races. Being an adaptive paddler, the challenges are many. I personally had to adapt my paddle to work with my artificial arm, changing the shaft and the t-top to accommodate my hook prosthesis. These changes took many hours of trial and error, a lot of patience,and a strong paddle to accept the pressure we put onto it.
We were awarded by winning gold in all events, in the adaptive category, two yrs ago at the world sprints. Also the Molokai Challenge, Lililiokulani, and the Henry Ayau races,we competed in the last two years.
We are in the process of updating our Kialoa paddles to the latest design. And look forward to many more races in the future, and hopefully more progressive adaptations. See you on the water.... Mahalo Kialoa, Darralyn Clarke
