Up and down this 1/2 mile stretch he's the only kid on the SUP every morning and afternoon winds or no winds playing. Hard to focus on any downwind time since this place is a wave machine and playground for him and his friends. Of course if I was an adult I wouldn't paddle out because tires have been cut and fights have erupted but that's not my battle. Anyways here is some clips from him and his friend.

Sad to hear things have got that bad. Stand your ground B.

Noah's ripping. Do you get him out to other spots? Variety for him is vital so he can develop his surfing in all sorts of conditions. He certainly has that wave wired.

Rob it's all good. He goes to other spots it's just this is home base because all his friends go there when other breaks aren't happening. I have seen adults roll up and get the boot but you know how that works in the surfing community. I was more trying to make a joke about his non interest (5%) in downwinding...It's a shame because he has 3 downwind boards in the garage collecting dust...

His bottom turns are getting even better - if possible! He rips. Hats off.
