I've been looking for a reason to post this...

Greenie,

I resemble that remark, no maccas for you from now on!!!!!!!!

Your back to eating that steamed tofu with lemon grass and drinking no fat lo fat soy wave the F$%#ing coffee past the rim of the cup but dont put it in cr@p.

Loosens all the fins on Greenies starboard and puts them in backwards.

And by the way I am a lump not a fat bastard

I hear the ULi board is a good board for fatties. Its inflatable so theres zero chance of snapping it.

Big guys need a pretty robust paddle too

MMmmmm Supper

Hey Chickenman...you're never too old, big or anything to do anything fun. Good for you for wanting to have a go. And go on you for posting your message here for all these smart bastards to answer

I have a friend in Hawaii that would be about 150kg's and he rides a 12' Laird. He surfs really well on it. And it's the same board in the photo that DJ posted of another good friend's brother in NZ.

I'm sure these guys will recommend a 12' this or that. You'll be great and you may even find you will lose a few kg's while out there having fun. Best of Luck and keep posting.

Hey Chickenman,

115kg's is no problem you will be fine, as others have said just get a nice big surf capable board.

Surf Beach was my local as a kid, and I have SUP'd it once a bit south toward Golden Bay.

Initially somewhere like the bay at Avalon might be a good spot to catch a few if you have not ridden waves before? (or even Crystals or Dunger Island)

Greeny weighing 65kgs, he must be dreaming. Unless that is with wet hair. If he didn't have that mop he'd be lucky to push 60kgs
