No way, just a step down from suplove.

How would you respond if I said to you "Can I play with your joystick?"

With the infux of "shaperless" boards from China how about something as simple as Paddleboards by John Citizen or whatever the dudes name is.
Gain at bit more respect in my opinion.

Love seems to be a touchy topic?

Depends on what your full name is. Oliver Newton John would get the nod

Teatree, I don't understand why you think the name will appeals to girls anymore than blokes?
Not trying to criticise the product as I haven't tried out the boards so cannot comment on them, but I'm not a fan of the name either.
Just my opinion, giving some feedback on the topic.

You may be right, I probably wouldn't drive a car called a Holden Love and for that matter if they ever released that model it would be targeted at 17 year old girls and come in lovely shades of blue, green and purple. I wouldn't wear a shirt that says I love fat chicks either. It is not common for men for whatever reason to brand their items with Love, no conspiracy just not commonly accepted.

Some of your board designs look good though, for the record where is your SUP love factory?

Perhaps you would be better served by simply removing the Love from the boards and just calling them SL. That logo looks ok to me.

Its just because im old , when i was young girls where girls and boys where boys , boys liked playing rough and playing with things like the green machine ,girls liked to play with cabbidge patch dolls.

Reallyy the reason is girls are well girls , they like that sort of soppy sounding stuff.Boys like tough sounding stuffDisclaimer i do have a dog whos name is Beauty , i get real embarressed when im walking her down the beach and have to call out to her.Expecially when their a dude walking his staffy whos called Axil

The word love is over used and has so many meanings, but at the same time can be very emotive - which makes it inappropriate to use in a brand name.

For example:
I can say without any discomfort "I love fish and chips"
But when I am face to face with my partner - "I love you" takes on a whole new meaning.

I can only think of one brand name with the word love in it: babylove - nappies

Everyone loves babies. Not everyone loves sups.

Over to you wiki machine for some clarification on the word:

I feel your pain. I have a blokey Hilux ute - toughest car in the universe!! Imagine my shame and payouts I cop on the days that I have to ride my wife's 150cc scooter to work!!!! - apparently boys can still be boys in this world

Personally I'm not fussed about the name - it could be worse and the logo could be a love heart with suplove inside it. If anyone is that embarassed I have a Naish sticker laying around that will cover it up

Maybe SUPLUST?

Oliver,
You back on the beers today? Ha Ha
I am so funny....your not too bad either, this thread is a goody.
I hear you local ting.... and even though I shape my own boards, like I have said before, I am not fussed totally about local sup. Local boards will rule eventually if they are good enough. It's local food that worries me. I am dead against importing oranges from brazil, meat from mad cow countries or fresh fish when we have the best produce here without fuel cost and transport damaging the enviorment. But hey thats another story...
I dont mind the name SUPLOVE. Could be worse? Anyone hear of Monkey Kites?

Stink Eye - LOL

That's the ultimate SUP name - can just picture the logo.

Maybe surfanimals could put his photoshop skills to that one.

I hope none of you being negative about the SupLove name drive a Pajero. Look that one up in Spanish. Mitsubitishi seem to sell lots of them, probably not in Spanish speaking countries though.
I own a SupLove board and I just figured most people would get it. I also own a McCoy "Nugget" and it's not a piece of **.
