Hey guys,

I know there are heaps of parents out and about with kids that want to have ago at SUP.






Nik,i Nesha and I took the 2 boards out with the following in mind.

1) How easy are the boards for little kids to handle:



Both Niki and Nesha can carry the boards for about 30 - 40m with little or no no trouble.

2) How stable are the boards for little kids to stand on in chop.

Tonight the water was wipped up by an onshore of about 15knts. The kids both paddled the 8'10 with no issues and both caught waves even thought there was little power or face to work with. Nesha had a little trouble on the 8.0 but it was definitely workable.

3) How easy was it for the kids to turn the boards.

Both boards are simple for the kids to turn to catch a wave
The 8.0 in the chop was much harder for Niki but she could do it.

4) Was it possible for Dad to surf the boards.

Even in the drbble that was at OG Main Beach tonight I could catch waves by paddling in on either of these 2 boards so they could both be used as Homer Big Boys short boards

More to come ........
