I threw this vid together trying out a new board in some late afternoon winter sunshine last weekend. Coming back in as the sun was setting I happened on a chance encounter with Dean Cropp. Dean was the Director of Photography for Tom Carrol's Storm Chaser movie. Legend guy, throws his drone up and spends a good hour taking some footage and downloading it for me. Never met him before.
On top of some truly magic winter glass I really connected with this board and what started out as a bit of a board test, turned into a truly memorable paddle.



It would be cool to have a thread that features what inspires us all to paddle.
