There's a couple of questions that are maybe a little skewed to the US or make no sense to me, but one I would add is...
If your family has threatened to stage an intervention if you bring home one more SUP board.
(that happened to me about 3 boards ago)
Or another question...
Do you own a SUP board that you store permanently in another country?
