The last time my son was in town he had a go on my SUP and loved it.

Been a dear old dad, I took the board to Adelaide last weekend so he could have fun on it over the Xmas break.

Prior to delivering the board to the son and heir I ordered a new 2010 stick hoping it would be here before Xmas. The closer it's getting to Xmas the more likelyhood it won't arrive in time for my annual Torqauy Xmas holiday.(certainly no fault of the importer, I knew the risk when I ordered the board).

So if you are SUPing in the Torquay Point, PRK or Urqharts bluff areas over the Xmas break and see an old guy sitting on the beach with a long face, that will be me.

Ha too bad Ian! I will lend you my camera if you like.
Seriously, I hope it arrives before Christmas.
All the best for the festive season. Robdog.

Thanks Dean & Dale for the offer, I might take you up on that. See you on Boxing day if not before.

Dean, I hope your shaping and glassing a few boards while I'm over there. I tried to patch up an old surf board to use kitesurfing, man did I stuff that up. I need to watch and learn.

Dale, Which one do you call the Fred Flintstone?

Robbo, Thanks but no thanks I'm hoping it will arrive in time but we all know how busy it is this time of year.

11 2 is long gone Brooko.
Yeah, I thought I would never get rid of it but once you get on these smaller boards its hard to go back.
Hoping the new stick will surf pretty well and have that stability feeling of the 11 2. If it doesn't I'll get another 9 8
