too old

young jake might drag a few of his mates along around our traps

interestingly, today i saw some groms swapping around from their shorties to sups in the water

never seen that before

Couple of old picks of Jake the snake , well see how he goes at the QLD champs this weekend. Hes 16 i rekon the average supper would be 36. All the younger ladies into it might bring the average down a bit .

I've watched Dean Snow's boy, I think his name is Jarrod. He's only 14 but he could do anything he wants to on a SUP. I'm not sure if he's interested in the competitive B------t. There are a lot of people that SUP that don't feel its necessary to try and qualify their ability. They let their surfing do the talking because of the sheer enjoyment of the artform, just like Wayne Lynch did..

I'd classify myself as a Senior Grommet in the SUP community at age 31, considering Jake and some younger crew are now getting involved.

There seems to be a lot of young hotties in hawaii they have gromett contests and everything.Riggs Napoleon is making a name for himself in both surf and distance and he looks really young.I think over here the grom's have been brainwashed by the major brands into thinking that anything outside the pro tour is uncool but that will change in time.It's like everything once people see how much fun your having they want to play too.

Gee i wish we could all be sole surfers. So if you where a kid with a bit of ability and a potential to be supported in doing something you love , you wouldnt take the opportunity. Life is competitive b-----t.
