Anyone know Aussie ex or current surfing pros who sup?

My list so far is MR, Simon Anderson, Bruce Raymond, Parko, Ritchie Lovett, Tommy C and Luke Egan

I'm keen to know if anyone else is into it cause nothing settles down the death stare factor like dropping a few names with the local short board crew

Thanks heaps guys

Great to see the current crop getting amongst it

Love the fact that every interview with a pro is full of cross training, core strength blah blah blah.. Yeah whatever, you can tell by the sheepish grin they're having more fun than their first day on a coolite

Don't forget Bob McTavish and I'm sure Midget and Nat would also be into it.

I just Read Kelly Slater's book on the plane and there is a reference and a pic of him doing Standup in Tahiti!

Bernard is a very keen SUPer-amongst pretty much everything else on the water-surf ski, mal, surfboat, prone paddle board, windsurfer, body bashing-been trying to get him on a kite for years-he's still resistant.

Thanks John

Kelly's ultimate cred should give the boys something to think about

Surfblanks was the main sponsor for the Merimbula event before it became the Mambo and I got to know Midget quite well back then.

It's nice to know that he's into SUP now.. .. When you see him next tell him we miss him at the Mambo.

Will do-pretty much see him daily-not as much as JB though-they can chat over the back fence.....

When he was on the goldy last time he was using one to round up bait ball's to swim through. He look at home which i guess he should but definitely knew what it was all about.

Yes, Occy does SUP (mostly with Luke). He joined us on the Snapper to Currumbin race a few years back.
