I just got back from the 27th Annual Mambo Wave sailing classic, were i spent majority of my time sailing on the Naish 11'6" SUP. This turned out to be more fun than I initially anticipated. I used a 4.7m Naish Force, which felt perfect. I sailed in conditions that would normally be labeled un-sailable, rode waves and had an absolute blast. I even ended up placing 3rd in the Wavesailing. I usually kite all Mambo, but this year, I think I would have been lucky to clock up 3 hours, the rest of the time I was SUP sailing! If you haven't tried sailing your SUP yet, your only getting half the joy out of your purchase! Light winds and clean waves go off. I was sailing in anything from 3 - 10 knots, and found the board amazing, getting lip hits and classic cut backs. It seems SUP has something for nearly every condition, loving it!

I hope you all give it a try.

Yeah DJ,

The Bar was going off, I was very suprised at how much fun we all had up there, I actually enjoyed it more than any sailing I have done at any Mambo before!

It's such an easy equation, 1 sail + 1 board + 1 paddle = every condition!

I hope to see more SUP's sailing around the north coast here, as it is perfect for the winds we get.

The 10'6" is super sweet, surfs really well, and 11'6" is just too much fun, there was rarely a time when the 11'6" were on the beach, they clocked up some big hours.

Ah, but does it also paddle and surf well? The Naish SUP is amazing in all fields!

As impressive as that looks, he actually isn't really catching the waves any early than a surfer would prone paddling. Sup still kick it big time.
