I did a leisurely stroke from Elwood to St Kilda pier and apart from the water being a tad brackish, I felt like I was staring into a mirror for the entire paddle....it was that calm!!

Looking down you feel like you are paddling through the sky. It plays tricks with your senses.

Sups everywhere at Pines this morning.

At 7:45am this morning there were considerably fewer numbers at OG, maybe everyone sleeps in now that it's colder. Found a few lefts over the reef at high tide.

Then had a great surf this afternoon on the low tide at a very clean and glassy Point Impossible - found a nice left away from the crowds with just me and two short boards. Sweet.

Niki got out there this afternoon and caught 6 whitewash waves. She was pretty stoked.




Time in the water with your kids priceless.

Signed,
Current w/surfer, new to sup...but still struggling with lack of wind.

I am also new to sup, managed to ride a few waves at the pines on saturday morning on my new Tabou. What I liked was we were able to paddle away from the main break which was busy with surfers and find some great suping waves with a few other guys also on sups. A bit more paddleing and we had a spot all to ourselves with a freindly seal .
Also thanks to the guy who gave me some paddleing tips, made a big difference.
