With an addiction to stand up paddle surfing I can never seem to find the time to mow the lawn.

Oh and by the way, I got a 2012 8'5 x 29" Starboard Pro today.
Single concave bottom feeding into a slight tail V with plenty of nose and tail lift.
The lawn will never get mowed now

Stoked for ya Greenroom

I haven't mowed a lawn for 20+ years thats a job for crims

My lady friend mows the lawn at our house and its one of those 1920 style mowers meaning it does not have a motor so the faster you push the quicker the blades rotate. I just tell her its good exercise for the gluteus

Or buy yourself a pair of geese and you will have the perfect lawn.

Don't want to boast....

But I'm particular about lawns and boards.

BTW, Starby looks great - back to the future almost with that old red / orange colour.

Sick looking board Mr Room . My first SUP was a 10'5" drive. They have come along way. If my PSH 8'9" ripper ever wears out i know what to get next.

Quad or thruster

Hey Silly, I was merely pointing out that Starboard have done this colour scheme a few years ago, even with their windsurf boards.
Definately not a copy of those Hawaiian boards

I have heard that you almost want to give up surfing when you see yourself on film. That massive bottom turn, rentry, cutback in your mind, turns into a slight wiggle. Anyway a roadtrip sounds fun, you know I am a big wave charger

Make sure you blokes come down during the week. I'm now on an 8/6 roster. It gets awfully lonely SUPing on your own in GT (play Jaws music here)

Miller is even making the move

From what I have been hearing there is a sighting a day and the sea lions are learning to use the surfers as a diversion. Makes you a bit happier your legs are'nt dangling (but not too much happier)

I do like it, but, I still loooove my longboards. Simply can't beat the glide and I do love walking the board and hanging a toe or two

Fuller noses tend to catch the wind when taking off in offshore conditions and also when kick turning in any reasonable wind.A pulled in nose reduces this problem heaps.
