Check out this Frenchman...no waves required, just incredible balance and agility! He has become my personal hero.

Cool!! Must be flat a lot there to be practicing those type of moves!!!!

I can remeber the first time this was posted, I thought it was the lamest thing I had seen, I cant believe I bothered to even open and watch, how sh!t is that. Way to bring the sport down! I don't really understand what he's trying to achieve? take up ballet if you wanna prance around like that? My 2 cents worth

have to agree. although it would be extremely difficult, it's pretty gay

Sorry guys I didn't realised this had been posted before,
I felt it was a pretty good demonstration of what a SUP athlete can do close up with respect to balance, agility and core control for those of us not at that level. Also it is amazing how diverse and creative this sport can be.
Horses for courses guys.

Cheers

Gay?....coming from a guy with a rainbow coloured surfboard?

Get off your high horses. Enough flat days in a row and you'd all be doing it.

Too many precious people on the breeze...when it suit themselves.......or should that be

I actually like that video. If I could have half the skills he has I would be very happy. What he is demonstrating is a very high skill level, both with his blade and his weight distribution. These skills will certainly be benificial to have whether surfing waves or doing long distance.

I liked the Vid to, good foot and body control.
But I'm whiling to bet my left nut that he surfs like s**t!!!
cheers
