Had this same experience just yesterday. Had a long SUP for the day,11.5ft. The lineups were crowded but I was looking between them in the back at beautiful 3-4ft rollers completely untouched. I was having to take breaks from catching too many waves in the first hour. It's amazing how much more surfing you can do. The lineup was scrapping over 2-3ft closeouts while I was with one other guy feasting on slow rollers from out the back. Only weird thing - I was in Florida, an hour south of NSB. So I made peace with the fact I was probably unknowingly visited by at least 2-3 sharks (maybe 50) while out that far. Oh well, better jump back on real quick! Love your videos!

That’s awesome prodigy! So cool to be able to glide around effortlessly outside the pack! I surf with the sharks in Florida every winter. Nothing to worry about unless your in whitewater when they are chasing fish. Check out my video “Mobbed by sharks” to see how little they actually care about us. Ha ha… yeah, I experimented with a “clickbait” title on that one 😂

Hi Sander My MO is to hold the paddle firmly in both hands during any wipeout. I keep it across in front of me, to protect me from my board. The paddle takes getting used to…. it will come if you stay aware of it. It is a great aid in balance if you always keep in in the water, with the blade flat on the water. It becomes a 3rd leg.

Sweet long rides! A question if I may? I want to get a longboard sup for catching small and or unbroken waves, early. Would 11 foot be long enough.? I’m 150lbs/ 65kg. Thank you, Merry Christmas.
@ilumen8810
5 жыл бұрын
11 foot would work for catching small waves (1-2ft), but also board width and shape (rocker) is important too. Most mainstream sups are too wide (31-33in at 11ft) to catch these small waves and good glide, so pay attention to the width (there are many skinnier boards out there, but you have to seek them out). I weigh 140# and have a 10x28inch board and catch tons of small waves. But the skinnier boards are harder to learn on because they are less stable. Longer is always better for small waves, the longer the better.

The waves were probably a bit smaller than this video and it was some nice easy paddle surfing for me. I'm 6'1" 215lbs. So the width isn't that much of a hindrance. I did have to give a bit of a push with the paddle once in a while.

Hi Yama Biru! I left on a 3 month trip around Christmas, so I missed your question. My experience says that if your small, unbroken waves are beachbreak, a really big board is difficult to turn without some wave energy. At 150 lbs, you could ride a 9'5 or 10' x 30 easily in weak or unbroken waves.... a little rail curve at the hips makes for easier turning in low power surf. If you have a pointbreak type wave, long is totally awesome, regardless of rider weight. I just got a 12' x 32 Sunova Point Break, that is amazing in everything! (vid on my channel)
