Yeah, I don't think surfing on SUP's needed that to be cool, but it was pretty cool. Cool

Dude, you guys aint seen nothing yet... Dudes at Ho'okipa riding 15 foot faces, zooming around on 6'8 SUPs. It's one thing to ride 11 foot SUPs around the river, its another thing to take it into the waves... Pretty cool stuff going on and it's gonna take a while for it to come out in videos.

Bump...

What about one of these things? He's getting lots of cut backs out of a wave that's not too spectacular.
