'Top dog' Chris De Aboitiz's new dog SUP surfing trick

Hard to see, but there's a dog on his shoulders!
Dog SUP surfing legend from Noosa, Chris De Aboitiz has just showed off an impressive new trick with his pup Rama, making dog owners all over the world wonder how on earth he does it!

Chris says it's Rama's trick. Some serious training by De Aboitiz on land before hitting the waves. It involves paddling into a wave on a stand up paddle board, with Rama on the tail of the board, Chris in the centre and his other dog Lani (who's famous in her own right) on the nose for encouragement. They paddle in, Chris bends down, Rama jumps up on his shoulders, Chris stands up and all three of them surf the whole way in to Noosa beach.

You've got to see it to believe it, but then again if you've witnessed any of Chris De Aboitiz's videos from his dog training company, Natural Balance Dog, then you'll understand.
