I have been using one of their paddles for the past 2.5 years without a problem. I think it's a copy of a well known brand, is light, carbon (I think), has an oval shaft and tapers towards the handle.
Thanks for you reply but I was referring to their boards.
Didn't realise they made paddles as well.

sorry cant comment on the boards , but had a Sunjam boardbag for about 12 months now and really happy with it .
been left under a caravan for a couple of months , on the car day after day and still going strong , while other brands I have bought and treated the same have fallen to bits within months
Hi beerdead, first of all I am not affiliated with Sunjam so can offer an unbiased opinion.
I went to see the Owner of Sunjam (Mark) to check out his range of boards in Kurnell near Sydney. Super nice guy who is very knowledgeable about the subject. I ended up buying a 12'6" racing board although I did check out his range of surf SUPs as well. I couldn't be happier with the construction and performance of my board. The best thing is you can demo first straight across the road.
I also know Adrian who runs a South Coast SUP business and he uses Sunjam boards as well. He is also impressed with their quality and performance.
Mark designs his own boards and then produces them off shore (in China I believe). He knows what works and is involved in all facets of the process. He is currently in the process of bringing in a carbon range as well.
I'd say check out the website and then drop in and see him. I think you will be pleasantly surprised.

Thanks Gav.
Tested a 10' 6" and an 11' yesterday. Much faster and manoucerable than my current boards, which are 10' 8" JP, and a 12' ATX. Much lighter as well. I need to check out couple of SUPCO first but the SJ's were impressive.

Good stuff BD.
I am sure if the boards were crap then someone would have belted them especially in this Forum.

Have you tried your 12'6 in a downwind yet and if so how does it go?
