Funny how many shortboard pics there are nice work guys


Hey Doggie now's your chance to you show us how good you really are , post a pic of you ripping it up on your shorty.

Casso: that's a classic

Torquay Point Rich was shreading that day as he and Lummers were pushing each other pretty hard. Rich hit light speed on a wave then he saw someone paddle directly into his path. He did avoide them and it ended up looking like this.




As they say no good deed goes unpunished.

Just showing what we used to do before seeing the light and where we wish we had our sup's


I think it shows that a lot of us still enjoy our short boarding as much as ever. I am still a short boarder first and everything else is a bonus.

Here is a nice bonus shot on an old single fin -another reason you shouldn't throw away those shortboards!

Very lucky to get it like that out of season!!You have to be very careful on a SUP at J-Bay its self as the locals do not like the SUP thing to much! So I was very careful there to do the right thing not take to many sets or stay out too long. However Seals pt At St Francis is a Great SUP Wave and most week days I surfed with the same 8 to 10 guys and girls who at first did not even smile,, but after a few surfs where I did the right thing, only took my share and called some of them onto the set waves they all were more than happy to say good morning and have a chat..
There is a local guy there Alistar who rips on a SUP one of the best I have ever seen. Full rail to rail cutbacks smashing the second part off of the white water and driving bottom turns with only 1 fin on the 9'6 Naish quad left in the water really impressive to see!!

Hey Rob as it is a sup forum I would have thought a sup on the wave should be in the criteria. Really like your first photo.
Great photos guys but mainly tow or shortboard

be proud of being a super

This shot of LSD's of Bells I reckon is all time , let's see the best your best pic of an Aussie wave. To get the ball rolling this is my shot at Point Cartwright at Sunshine Coast last year an obvious second. Come Friday lets vote on it and I will send out a Power Band and a Von Piros T-shirt to the winner.No rules just you or your mate took the shot.

Rob

This was the original post says Aussie wave. So as long of the shot is in Aus and is a wave then whats on it short long sup etc should be irrelevant.
