Found this board company with some nice looking SUP outlines.

This is a link to their home page which also has some nice outlines.

Ahawk,

I might be blind but where can I see shots/pix of the rails? I've looked everywhere and can't seem to find anything.

Cheers

Hey Gorgo,

The outline looks fine the wide points a beam and aft remind me more of the peanut style boards lol. I think its more of a cruiser than a performance model

I have to laugh when surfboard/ sub boards call themself eco/green imho its a grab for the $$$ not much more! I guess we need to get used to it there will be many more on the way soon.

In my industry if you put 5% eco diesel into a generator it has suddenly become a thing to hold up and tout as a saviour to all creation when really it makes very little difference to emissions.

The reason it is done is either to gain empathy from the masses for a project, or drive the green market to the shop front and or pocket a possible carbon credit.

I guess its more the Tom Wegener or Riley boards that are closer to eco friendly but as usual that comes with a significant cost that few can afford or want to pay!

Eco boards are either HWS glassed with Bamboo cloth and bio resin or chambered pawlonia setups with no glass at all...either option is heavier in the hand but alot lighter on the planet....

I posted the link because it was a SUP making company I had never heard of before, the outlines were more curved than others, and they had a naked woman with a surf board.

Reading further there's a bit of stuff about river surfing here

I have a good pic of Corran.. .. The best thing about surfing those freezing rivers would be getting in the hot tub after wards..
