Check out the link below to see a great way of SUPing on land when the waves are not working.



We bought one CarveBoard and a Big Kahuna Stick each about 2 months ago and we are seriously impressed. Its fun, it feels JUST LIKE Sup on water and over the last weekend, we both felt like we are really close to doing what feels like a Mark Richards style bottom turn on land!!!

We have learnt you definitely need a good piece of bitumen (uninterrupted slight downhill road preferrably smooth gutters...which we have here in Hervey Bay on an elevated land estate that is PERFECT...a 1km downhill run using lots of little cul-de-sacs to slow our speed etc)

By now, we would have had some serious 'wipe-outs' without using the Big Kahuna Stick, and the all over body workout is obvious when you are aching, aching, aching all over that night. Feels great!

Cool!
Only thing is if I fell off the Land SUP as much as the water SUP, I would have no skin left on my body.

and the contact for the Big Kahuna Stick is:
Boardshop Australia

Friendlyfolks@boardshop.com.au

We have a perfect empty-ish estate where we can get a continuos challenging downhill that lasts for about 1.5 km, using cul-de-sacs to slow speed at critical stages. A solid all over workout and the local kids come out and you can see them thinking "What the hell is that???"
