Am a manual arts teacher at high school, which is good as I have a surfboard construction class where a have to demonstrate to students how to make surfboards. This allows me to grow my collection for the price of materials. Am involved in performance coaching, helping people and businesses achieve better outcomes, and have also started a business installing artificial grass.

take xrays at the local hospital, i take all the late shifts and we only work a four day week, so heaps of time for suppin.

Work for an environmental consulting group as a Civil and Environmental Engineer doing flood modelling and stormwater design. Office hours 8-6 doesn't leave as much time for supping as I'd like but at least it pays for all my toys.

I lost a boogie board bag on a flight some time ago. Have you seen it?

I support my watersports toy obsession by the Chinese water method. I have found if I tell my wife often 'I am going to have a new SUP shortly' (or paddle or sail or fin or whatever....) for long enough, she gets used to the idea. After the initial fireworks we settle down to a moody silence about it. After more time passes (needs to be in proportion to the size of the purchase), I then buy it, and say, 'but I have been telling you for ages, I thought you approved'. Works a treat.

So, I am just about in the market for a new SUP right now (I have been saying I need a new SUP for 8 months now).

Other than that, I have a ticket to drive a computer, building economics reports.

Own and run a retail busines in a large shopping centre, it's a 7 day a week, with extended trading hours thusday and friday nights.The work load has been heavy for a long time,as i'm not getting any younger i have decided to put on more staff , and start having a bit more me time, YEP, that means more sup time in 2010.

Of course everyone is telling the truth about themselves

About Me

"I am a dynamic figure, often seen scaling walls and crushing ice. I have been known to remodel train stations on my lunch break, making them more efficient in the area of heat retention. I translate ethnic slurs for Cuban refugees, I write award-winning operas, I manage time efficiently. Occasionally, I tread water for three days in a row.

I woo women with my sensuous and godlike tuba playing, I can pilot autos up severe inclines with unflagging speed, and I cook Thirty-Minute Brownies in twenty minutes. I am an expert in stucco, a veteran in love, and an outlaw in Peru.

Using only a hoe and a large glass of water, I once single-handedly defended a small village in the Amazon Basin from a horde of ferocious army ants. I play bluegrass cello, I was scouted by the Cubs, I am the subject of numerous documentaries. When I'm bored, I build large suspension bridges in my basement. I enjoy urban hang gliding in my backyard. On Wednesdays, after work, I repair electrical appliances free of charge.

I am an abstract artist, a concrete analyst, and an avid riverboat gambler. Critics worldwide swoon over my original corduroy evening wear. I don't perspire. I am a private citizen, yet I receive fan mail. I have been caller number seven and have won weekend concert passes. Last summer I toured Indiana with a traveling centrifugal-force demonstration. I bat .400. My deft foral arrangements have earned me fame in international botany circles. Children trust me.

I can hurl racketball rackets at small moving objects with deadly accuracy. I once read Paradise Lost, Moby Dick, and David Copperfield in one day and still had time to refurbish an entire dining room that evening. I know the exact location of every food item in Dominick's supermarket. I have performed several covert operations for the CIA. I sleep once a week; when I do sleep I sleep in a chair. While on vacation in Canada, I successfully negotiated with a group of terrorists who had seized a small bakery. The laws of physics do not apply to me.

I balance, I weave, I dodge, I frolic, and all my bills are paid. On weekends, to let off steam, I participate in full-contact origami. Years ago, I discovered the meaning of life but forgot to write it down. I have made extraordinary four course meals using only a mouli and a toaster oven. I breed prize-winning clams. I have won bullfights in San Juan, cliff-diving competitions in Sri Lanka, and spelling bees at the Kremlin.

I have played Hamlet, I have performed open-heart surgery, and I have spoken with Elvis."

(Hugh Gallagher)

main gig is working for IBM in the as a Information Security Engineer. Coach SUP after hours and on weekend, which is slowly getting busier and busier and paddle whenever I get the chance. Surfed all my life, and races ocean ski's. So when my neighbour Tom introduced me to SUPing...it was a perfect fusion my two ocean passions. Which was good because finding time for one is hard enough.....

Work at a RAAF Base on our fighter jets in corrosion control, keeping them rust free pretty much. Love the hours finish early (2pm) and it's outdoor work which I love. After 20 odd years of night shifts! Spent most of my life in the military so this gig is a breeze as a born again civvy. Only down side is I have to surf weekends now and the crowds are unbearable sometimes!! I'm sure these SUP's have magnets on them....

Hey Mac was it basketball

I don't have an SUP lifestyle........................yet, he says tentatively.

have worked in printing industry all my life except for the past 4 years, which kept me well stocked in the surfboard and skatey dep'ts.

Now a major account manager for a laundry, which will fund my 1st SUP

Currently commuting 184km round trip (Gold Coast to Brisbane CBD) doing Commercial Trade Finance for a bank.

Only been doing it 2 months - need to get a transfer back down the Coast!!

Best thing about SUP is it allows me to get on the water in the creek if the ocean isn't feeling co-operative.

I'm the self employed tradie[electrician] that never answers his phone[well when the surfs up anyway[}:)]],
isn't that why they invented voice mail.
