Superb. Thanks for posting. I wish more contests were oriented to this style of surfing. Obviously the nose riding was the main feature, but he could really thrown that board around when he wanted to.
And Xavier on a "mini longSUP". It is a 7' board (Gong 7' NFA XTR, 110 liters), but with a longboard shape, insane fun in weak waves: the glide of the shape, and the looseness of the length. As you can see in the vid, it is wide (nearly 30"), so it takes some pressure to bank the turns, but it is a board for fun (stability) rather than work (contests).
