reminds me of that old quote about longboarders and sup riders
"the only thing that gets better when you ride one is how good you were "
Like Scotty I love the SUP pi$$ take. It's a classic.
I ride one, as I ride shortboards as well and nobody hates SUP riders more than me.
But then i'm not fat or bald so perhaps I don't fit in that well....... Hahaha.
Yeah I ride a shortboard, consider myself fit, weigh 70kgs and have a full head of dreads. My board is 8'5
Seen a sup skateboarder the other day, had a good chuckle. Jeez that's a lazy way of skating..
What's next? sup fruitbooting?
'Fruitbooting' is a term skaters affectionately gave to rollerbladers.
I'm sure you can go quick on sup skaties Chrispy, but what's wrong with using your leg to push? Always worked for me
Anyway.... Shortboarding is underrated!
Let's see what surfcraft is still around in 50 years
Try riding a sup in waves that throw out and barrel top to bottom eg most decent reef breaks i in sw wa. Id like to know if u think its the shortboard or sup thats overrated for those conditions. What is really the soul motivation to surf?Getting tubed for me.
I went for a sweep for the first time the other day at rotto. It was good for tuning rich birds on big boats. But out in the surf it was just plain homo
Dear Greenroom. I also live down south. If you're talking about yallingup mains I wold challenge u saying it barrels especially the left which is where I see most long boarders and sup locals riding. I'll see u out supers! By the way I'm not saying you can't have fun on a sup. just it's very hard to get tubed on em as the photos everyone's posted show. For old guys n women I suppose they're worth while.
