Hi.
A bit of talk going on about 10ft , longboard style sups. They are a great way to start SUp'n , or make a fantastic addition to your existing quiver.
I have been riding a 10ft SUp (other sizes as well) for over a year. initially i bought it as a cruiser for teaching on, but rode it out in the surf and was pleasently surprised!
This sup had glide and sustained speed through a turn. It was easy to paddle and light to carry. Noseriding, drop-knee turns and hang 5s have been part of my longboard days, now i can enjoy them on my Sup.
I have had this sup out in ridicuously small surf and had a ball for 3hrs! Its a C4 Waterman 10' x 30 ". 159 litres
Check it out, christmas isn't far away.
