I'm in. Looking like a sick day the Strapper boys are putting on. With the High tide around mid afternoon and with fingers crossed a little bit of swell, this will be great to try new boards. This defiantly will be the Place to be to try out your next board.

Only a few more days and the forecast is looking great.




With the low tide at 9.20am being only a .54 low there will be some fun long rides. With the high tide at 2.41pm, the swell will have enough water to wrap around into the bay and we should have a fun 2 foot wave. This will be perfect to try your new board of choice for summer.

Strapper Surf SUP demo day was held last Sunday at Cosy corner Torquay.
Everyone was amping to demo all the 2013 products from all the major brands.
As the tide came in the swell increased with some small waves perfect for lessons and testing boards.











Laguna Bay boards were popular and some of Dogman's custom's on offer.







FCS new fin design with small ball bearings for quick and easy fin lock system.




Cameron Lamperd our sup Instructor from "Surf Sessions" ran back to back lessons with plenty of stoked beginners!






Kev from Bass Sup was slaving over the BBQ all day feeding all the hungry paddlers , he also was ripping on the JP 9'2.






Matt Lumley was here helping with water safety all day and shredding anything he rode.





.
Local boys Carl and Heath enjoying on the JP demop boards!



Courtney also helped out with water safety and took Dogman's 8'3 for a spin.



Dave is just awesome he's regularly out on his stand up and always happy to help out with our events at Bass Sup and all our demo days.







ROBDOG !!
I think Pete enjoys SUP just as much as i do !!








Aidan from Naish splitting the pack on the new Naish 12'6 ONE Inflatable.












The vibe on the beach was fantastic with a record 150 crew registered on the day and lesson groups .
Boards had people in queues busting to demo the latest from JP Austraila , Global Surf Industries , Naish , Laguna Bay & Starboard.
I want to thank everyone who attended and everyone who assisted me to make this day possible , we really appreciate your support.

Looking forward to seeing you all in the water this Summer!

Thanks Rich,
Was a great day again. Glad I could be there with the Naish Boards. The Photos make it look a bit cold and gloomy, but it was actually a really nice day in Cosy Corner, the sun shone most of the day and lots of fun was had on the water.
Loved surfing the 12'6 One through the crowds and seeing the fear on peoples faces as 12'6 comes towards them turn to smiles as they work out its just a big inflato.

Thanks for giving Bass SUP the opportunity to run a fundraising BBQ at the event.

I wouldn't say ripping on the 9'2" JP, I was just happy to be staying on it.

The JP's, the inflato's and the Naish and NSP raceboards had heaps of interest and the more experienced guys were frothing over Dogmans and Tully's boards.

Was a great day.
