62 y/old -done another rotator cuff again, surfed on many different craft for 50 years - mal , then " morning of the earth type boards" wave ski and last 10 years - a retro fish 7'3" - brilliant BUT can't paddle properly now. Saw a SUP rider and the paddle stroke looked ( and is ) user friendly for me - DO NOT HAVE TO GIVE UP SURFING YAHOO!!!! Also my lady is interested and we have been loaned boards to paddle - great on the lake and even tempted her out in the ocean on a calm day - we intend to surf together - no more "surf widow" stuff - she will be out there
SUP paddling helped strengthen my rotator cuffs. Especially R one of them that underwent surgery a few years back. My shoulders are in the best condition they have been for years. (and I catch a few waves as well!)
