It gives one the ability to snake everyone else in the line up and then ride like a shortboard. A big paddle board just gives you the chance to snake and cruise. ------------------------- Replace turf grass with native plants that don't need irrigation and synthetic fertilizers or chemicals that can go into our waterways and ocean Edited: 05/09/2018 at 07:16 AM by daner

I ride a short SUP, and after reading this I will catch every wave leaving none for others and I will absolutly snake YOU!!!! Got to live up to the hype. SNAKE AND CRUISE !!! Dont knock what you cant do or have never tried. Kai is the best waterman on the planet. Agee, wave pool not the place, I rather see him SUPing Peahi.

Cole Posts: 68411 Joined Forum: 07/22/2003	Dahui321, why not just paddle prone? I've watched Sam D on his little board and it looks like wayyyy more difficult. ------------------------- I was right.

I think I said it gives you the ability to snake... doesn't mean you have to but if you want to join the snake club you ride the right stuff. I surf with a shortish board SUPer almost everyday and he is respectful. The other day I had a guy on a short sup paddle out. Just me and another guy in the ocean. He paddles up to the peak were surfing and proceeds to catch every wave. Didn't actually snake us but he was an asshole about sharing. ------------------------- Replace turf grass with native plants that don't need irrigation and synthetic fertilizers or chemicals that can go into our waterways and ocean

It takes some serious skill on those little boards. ------------------------- I was right.

The guy rips on a short board, surfs huge waves as well as anyone, and apparently likes variety. Crazy concept. Why that bothers people is beyond me. The "short board only" mentality is bananas. One of the least aesthetic things someone can do is take their 5'8 out on a mushy day, barely make drop ins and sink. The place I surfed last week had 8' tides and was so damn fun on a 6' when it was low-ish. The rest of the time I was kicking myself for not renting a bigger board or an SUP. The guys on those got all the good ones for hours every day. Also, the idea that Domke is a better waterman than Kai is pretty funny. ------------------------- A horse walks in to a bar.

If all your boards are under 6' then you are missing lots (at least on the US mainland). ------------------------- A horse walks in to a bar. Bartender says "Why the long face?"
