Brian here - ‘Noticed the chit-chat on the new SA and LSD range. As with most things, a mate has let the 'SUP out of the bag'.
I’m working with SA, LS, and Walk On Water Pty Ltd (my company) is acting as the Australian distributor for these new boards.
So just to fill you in on where we are at. Yes the boards are manufactured in China, we’ve chosen one of the most (if not the most) reputable factory to ensure high quality workmanship, innovative manufacturing techniques, and a strong commitment to R&D when it comes to board construction materials. LOCO is correct the same factory produces several reputable board brands from around the world in EPS. PVC and others
The first boards are due to arrive Mid November - as long as the ship doesn’t sink. Luke’s has quite an extensive quiver from 8-0 to 11-6; the 8-0 is aimed at ultra light weights, groms and/or Ninja’s with perfect balance. Simon’s boards at this stage are a little more conservative 10-0, 10-6, 11-0 and 12-0, and aimed at those less inclined to go vertical. Expanding his range is being considered and I suspect more shapes will follow.
As we are the wholesaler you won’t be able to buy the boards directly from us, however you can register your interest at www.walkonwater.com.au and we’ll send you a spec sheet and a complete list of the goodies available inc. paddles EVA pads and HD leggies’
We are planning to be at the Mambo Festival ( last weekend in Nov - Merimbula) with most of the boards ready for test, but if you can’t make that we’ll be organizing a few demo days around Sydney in the lead up and during Xmas Cronulla, Longy, Palmy and South Coast being likely locales.( Also planning to get to Vic early in the new year )
Anyway – if you want any more details drop me a mail at
