It was early October and we got a beautiful summers day and about 30 deg.. Even enough wind to do a downwinder.. Only just enough wind but still it was great to be out on the water in just boardies and T shirts.. Jonathon and Johno didn't even wear shirts.. Johnathan was back first, packed up and loaded.. had a coffee.. with a three course meal.. read war and piece.. and walked out on the pier to meet us coming in.. .. Those Starboard Aces are just too fast in these marginal conditions.

Can anyone guess what I was telling Jonathan at the end of the vid?

You were describing the pattern you wanted in the froth on your coffee ?

Hey DJ, thanks for hanging back with the newbies, your advice and encouragement was much appreciated and I'm sure you would have loved to be belting along with Jonathan. It was a blast and though the side chop was a hassle it was the most fun I have had on a SUP to date, this downwind thing really is a blast.
Big thanks to SHQ for letting young Jono demo the 12'6 JP, he didn't fall off once unlike his old man who tested the water temperature on several occasions. I want him to write a review about the board but it will have to wait as it is the last night before school holidays are over so he is paddling upwind through that pile of homework that he thought it best to leave until now
thanks again and bring on those summer northerlies
Cheers Mel
