Hey guys, decided to join this lively forum and throw in my two bobs worth.
I have been a Seabreezer since it was born - to fuel my wind and surf habits, but recently I have found myself on it every day feeding the SUP addiction (hey, if you dont get SUP, don’t do it - its gong to get crowded).

First up though I should lay my cards out - I have a vested interest in SUP - I sell the suckers and teach SUP at our Sailing school - Balmoral Windsurfing and Sailing School on Sydney Harbour and around Manly. So I am a SUP surfing addict - thanks to my friends JB and Adam from Naish for getting me hooked ( awesome boards)!

We sell and ride all the top brands and read all the reviews and they are pretty much 'on the money' for getting out into the surf with a paddle.

it seems to me however that no one has really dialled a board that really surfs - most boards ride like big Mal's. A recent trip to Hawaii opened our eyes to a whole new way of surfing with a paddle. There we found guys who do nothing but SUP, they surf, they shape, they go out and surf again. C4 is definitely on the money and their new boards RIP ( if you can get your hands on one). The other boards we were impressed with were from Paddle Surf Hawaii - shaped by Blane Chambers. We were blown away by their performance – they absolutely rip. The PSH team reads like a who's who of surfing legends and Tom Carrol has just ordered a custom board from Blane.

Ok, we were so stoked we also put our hands up to be the agent for PSH boards in Australia so yes, I am going to give them a push. But hey, there is plenty of that going on here any way so I figure I might as well join in.

These boards are not going to be your first board, there is nothing over 10'6 and 9-10' are the most popular sizes.

Anyway don’t take my word for it - check them out at - www.paddlesurfhawaii.com and come by ( if your in Sydney) and grab a demo and write a review.

It will change you mind about the surfing possibilities of SUP forever!!

If anyone out there has ridden anything else in this league - let us know, becasue at the end of the day - its all about the stoke!
