LAND PADDLING: Land Extreme Sports In Singapore
Imagine riding a skateboard or longboard, and instead of kicking to propel yourself forward, you use a long stick called the Kahuna Big Stick and push yourself forward. It’s a bit like Stand-Up Paddleboarding but on land! Land paddle is suitable for almost all ages. For adults who might think that it’s very cool to skateboard but too old to pick up skateboarding then land paddle can give you that skate sensation without having to learn skateboarding the hard way and at the same time get a great core and cardio workout.Land Paddle Singapore, www.facebook.com/LandPaddleSingapore
