Local Firm Attaches LED Lights to Stand-up Paddle Boards

Pau Hana Surf Supply LLC continues to lead the way incorporating technological advances into its Stand Up Paddle Board designs.


Pau Hana Surf Supply and NOCQUA Adventure Gear have collaborated on a new way to attach LED light technology to SeaMount equipped Stand Up Paddle Boards.


SeaMount, created by Pau Hana, is a simple and robust way to screw anything down to a SUP. The NOCQUA 2000 by NOCQUA Adventure Gear is an innovative, waterproof LED lighting system designed to make SUP paddling at night an unforgettable experience. Easy to install – and remove – the system includes two waterproof lighting tracks, a 12V lithium ion battery pack and charger along with everything needed to bring 2000 lumens of light paddling.


Working together, Pau Hana founder Todd Caranto and NOCQUA founder Billy Rossini, created an elegant solution for quickly attaching the 2000 lumen light bars to the bottom of SUPs without a harness. Todd explains, “It’s ‘Plug N Play’, no tools are required and it only takes moments to be on the water and paddling in full light mode”.


The Nocqua compatible SeaMount is only available on Pau Hana boards and will be featured on three of its 2014 board models, the Big EZ, the Big EZ Angler fishing board, and the Lotus yoga board. Nocqua light systems and the Pau Hana boards are available through the Pau Hana authorized dealer network.


The Pau Hana Nocqua ready boards will be unveiled and available to ride at the upcoming Surf Expo in Orlando Florida, Sept 5th – 8th 2013 at Orange County convention center.


Nocqua Adventure Gear is a great partner and this partnership reflects our desire to collaborate with companies that share our vision of innovation for recreation and fun.
