There's been alot of chat on high performance Sup boards , this is just a few more shots of our of our PNG trip and they really show case Dales boards , this wasn't fat lumpy surf but a punchy reef break and the photos just tell the story.

These shots are all on DC boards with Alain in green on a 9-10 ,Simo in white was on a 9-2, Brett and myself were on 8-11's , and Dale on his 8-10.

We are all starting to over analysis the board design and we should sit back and let the shapers do there thing instead of pressuring them to shape an experiment that probably won't work.

Piros

P.S I pay for all my boards...and this is not a Pimp.

Hail the red thumbs....if you have some better pics on other boards let's see them... and give me a reason why you stuck up the thumb.

They are good shot definately, but they could be on any performance SUP (even POP out). It's sometimes hard with stills to see what exactly is going on.

In saying that I know the DC boards go great, Cammos 9'3" is solid and sooo fast.

p.s. I haven't given any thumbs, but it's thumbs up from here!

Great shots , i want to look at a shorter board what do you recommend for some one around 85 to 90kg mark.I currantly ride a PSh 10.6 and although its good in bigger waves i fine it really hard to to generate speed in smaller stuff , hence my turns are slow and awkward.Im tossing up between PSH 9,3 A Laguna Bay or a DC.

Cheers

Anything shorter will feel unreal

PS. love your work Piros especially tippy toes turn in the last shot. Red thumbs are good means people are jealous

Ok, so your claiming its a punchy reef break and not fat lumpy surf?? Only one shot over head high and nothing that comes close to resembling a barrel, so yes, the photos do tell a story, that you need to get your eyes checked mate![}:)]

If you can't contribute positively to this forum why don't you stay off it? These are great shots and if you have any better ones of yourself pulling into spitting barrels then let's see them.

Hey Teatree, definately go a custom - either the Laguna or the DC. Just keep plenty of bouyancy if it's for tiny stuff like we had on the weekend.
