Well, my baby arrived late this afternoon - cannot wait to get this little beauty wet.

VERY VERY HAPPY LITTLE VEGEMITE.

(I'm way happier than the wife is having a sup in the lounge )

Nice one supnth, the awesome Pocket Rocket. Mine is packed and coming to Fiji with me tomorrow. Enjoy supnth.

DJ that would be 8'5" by 30" wide by 4.3" thick.

It certainly is a pocket rocket.

Funny thing is, my wife was checking it out and saying how tiny it is, but after 2 hours on her lounge room floor she just said "that board actually looks pretty cool, could I paddle it?" This from a non-paddler who has only paddled a 10.2 and a 9.9 JP wide a couple of years ago.

Hoping for sun on sunday so I can christen the little starby at Bridport.


Sorry about the sideways pic - hope this is better

Well, She's locked and loaded ! Just need tomorrow morning to be the same as today for her official christening (maybe not the -2 we had this morning, but no wind would be nice)

Do believe it will be on display at the NWBR winter SUP comp next weekend , hopefully in a fairly good NW wind swell , conditions which should suit .

This was the pumping surf at Hawley this morning !!!
Worked on my Sup de Solei moves instead




(



Yes, its a very very stable board - also paddles really well for a sub 9' board - I paddled from Hawley to Bakers with ease )

Hey Wiz - you are welcome to come paddle it next weekend at Preso Bay if you want.

Would love to.

Unfortunately I am on the big island for the weekend. Maybe another time though
