Some people (not us) hold stand-up paddle boarding to be a sin against God and nature. Even some dolphins, it would seem, think it’s plain wrong. But how about sit-down paddle boarding, as practised by Marcos Vidical, beer in hand, in this video? Does it represent a minor improvement or a descent into even greater depravity? Whatever the answer, some (not us) would argue that being a white man with dreadlocks and using a Jack Johnson song as a soundtrack constitute offences of an altogether more serious order. Although Jack Johnson does rip, as he recently reminded us when he went for a surf at Haleiwa with friends and neighbours Kelly Slater and John John Florence.
