Japanese TEA ceremony on the SUP

  

The cherry blossom or “sakura” is the national flower of Japan. As the cold winter gives way to spring, the cherry blossoms bloom in a riot of pink. They symbolize so much for the Japanese: new school year, new financial year, the ephemeral beauty and fragility of life. During the cherry blossom season, Japanese hold parties under the bright pink canopies of the trees; parties known as hanami (flower viewing). Families, lovers, work colleagues, all gather for music, food, sake, and laughter.

These photos were taken last spring during the Cherry Blossom Festival at Ōoka River that flows through the historic city of Yokohama. Our organization, Mizubeso, plans and operates cruises and waterside activities with SUP and boats on the Ōoka River.

On this bustling busy weekend, we wanted to do something new – create a never seen before perspective on the river.

The Red Paddle Ride XL SUP boards had just been imported to Japan for the first time. It was the first of the giant SUP boards in Japan. The surface area of the Red Paddle Ride XL is so big, flat, and stable, it can be used for a variety of different activities. Our idea was to bring a new twist to the Japanese hanami by holding a traditional Japanese tea ceremony or ochakai on top of the Ride XL. A tea ceremony involved drinking macha, (powdered green tea) and eating a traditional Japanese sweet. It is prepared and served in a very elaborate way, which can take years to learn.

With the host of the tea ceremony making the tea dressed in a kimono, and the paddlers also wearing traditional Japanese clothing and riding a giant SUP board, you can imagine that the scene caused quite a stir for the Japanese onlookers. The event even attracted the attention of a very popular weekly magazine “Shukan Shincho.”

Throughout the day, various people of all ages enjoyed the SUP ochakai on the river. Even with up to 6 adults riding the board no one complained of feeling uneasy or seasick! The SUP ochakai was a perfect blend old and new culture, that allowed people to see and enjoy the river and the cherry blossoms as they have never done before.
