When is someone going to have a ten foot plus section in their comps?
Nose rides, drop knee turns. Get some mal style in ya!!!
Would be fun!! Also one for the big units out there.

It's been discussed at club level down here a couple of times...sort of on the radar but we're probably a bit early in the evolution of our local/club surf comps to figure that one out just yet.

I agree wholeheartedly with this topic. I think sup is all about longer boards and style. I have just spent the day at the NSW titles and it was a huge disappointment. True the waves were small and gutless but the surfing was truly uninspiring. Guys on boards way too small for the conditions wiggling around with a total absence of style. Almost half of them knee paddled out.In my opinion this isn't how it should be. it looks better on longer boards.I'm not necessarily advocating 10' boards but for a lot of conditions they've gone way too small.
