Andy Irons Honorary Paddle Out this Sunday on Kauai

Andy Irons Surfing

Andy Irons, Kauai surfing legend, is honored around the world, and right here on Kauai, this Sunday November 14, 2010 as family and friends participate in the traditional “paddle out” ceremony.

For those of you that know surfing, you have no doubt been a fan of our own Andy Irons, Kauai raised World Champion Surfer, and for those of us that knew Andy, we are grateful for having had that pleasure.

Last week in Puerto Rico, they had a similar memorial service, and it is very touching to see how much he was loved and respected by his peers, and how much he will be missed by all.

Please enjoy this wonderful video depicting this Memorial Paddle-Out at the Rip Curl Pro Search in Puerto Rico on November 3rd, 2010.

Rest in Peace Andy, you were loved by many, and our prayers go out to your family

    Thanks for sharing. Such sad news and so young. So much to live for, but his life was cut much too short.

    rip Andy was one of the great ones! There’s very little room at the top, his passion and talent put him there.
