Yeh I saw them at the roar comp the other week, I must say they looked the goods.
As some may know it was a real ****ty weekend with a gale. The guys rocked up with their SA tees caps and all and unloaded the van,within 5 minutes one board went flighting in the air and smashed into a shape sail. Gee new board retailing at big bucks and never been wet gets hammered. They started to reload the van fast.
mate it wasn't even a production board, it was actually a SA Custom !!
Ouch
Hear what your saying Doggie on the SUP content growing in the ALB mag, think it is because there aren't really any SUP mags around - Casso from the SUP forum had a crack and made a really good product but didn't get passed 2 issues (bit of a bummer it was a good rag) there's another some guys on the goldie are trying to set up but that's it - I take it to trying to up readership.
I spoke to casso at the comp and told him,dont give up the dream. I told him may have been too early and relaunch in twelve months. As a long time logger I am sick of seeing sup ads in my mag's **** if I wanted to view/ read about sup'ing I would just buy a copy of a sup mag,whoops there's not one,yet. Its going to happen and good luck that sport is so young but it will NEVER be mainstream IMO. A bit like foamriders. A bit like shortboard companies advertising in a LB mag and Foamers advertising in a standup mag.
