For 3 years my partner & her ski buddy would hang it on me while they did twice the speed on their epic skis while I supped. Then one day, she said 'can I have a paddle, I'll paddle down to Scott's house & come back". She went past the house, eventually returning with a big grin on her face. She was hooked & still paddling strong 11 years later, in all seasons. Ski long gone along with the numb bottom. Plus you can see more standing up. As someone in the industry told me a while ago, "It's feels way better than it looks".
With a looming shoulder replacement I thought I'd SUP for the interim . 5 boards , o/s trip as well as countless road trips SUPing ..still no shoulder replacement.oh the wife of this post? Yeah a new board usually equates to some sort of jewellery purchase
.. wife was prone surfer when I met her,
