For my 1000th post >  I need to get a life.   I am an  addict to sup.  Lets hear your stories!

Fireman in the 805.  I SUP and surf and run.  Looking forward to future WNW swells.

ok well evryone has a life but me.My best day  terramar point last summer  late summer   no real swell maybe 2  occ 3 foot faces but so smooth so glassy  water so clear. i got every wave I paddled for all were pretty fast  and  just up down the face  and every time I kicked out I didn't fall

worst day that harder every so often I have a day when I just can't do anything right  usually its choppy  and windy  more than a fe days but I  can't really remember  them.

Maybe the worst was the day I broke my rib September 2013.  However, the next day, I foolishly went out again, but stood up on my first wave, with the broken rib.

So I guess the worst day was followed by the best day.

Congrats on the 1000th......if you need to get a life I must need an intervention or something....

I have a bunch of best days but a few stand out.

Aug 9th 2008, Stepping ashore after the 1st CCBC....words can't really explain what it meant to me....shit even now I get a bit choked up just thinking about it.

February 2008...One of the 1st times I surfed with brother Bill we were at Kanaha, here I am a complete newb in the lineup with Jimmy Lewis, Bill Foote, and Pono...and one lone longboarder. I had already had some of the best rides I'd had in my then short SUP experience and the waves got better and better, clean chest to head, crystal clear water, warm light breeze offshore....the sun starts to go down and is shooting rays up into the sky through the West Maui mountains. They spark a double rainbow that frames the mountains and just as I'm sliding into a wave a humpback cow and calf start breaching 200 yards outside.....I can still picture it when I close my eyes.

Worst day SUPping.....the start of this years CCBC sucked.....

The best and worst day for me was last Sunday; I fractured my foot on a shallow sandbar.  So, for the next six to eight weeks I won't have to concern myself about the wave and weather reports, what wetsuit to wear, who's going paddling, etc. I'm sure this is in answer to the break I was praying for but, not exactly what I was hoping for.

BEAN!!! sucks buddy.... really sucks. I am sure you will be back at it in a jiffy... but until then, grab your camera and record your buds.... not SUP, but it keeps you close to it.

maybe a quad copter?

My good buddy and I caught 50+ waves one day after switching to SUP.  We got hammered so bad because of no duck dive at Flagler Beach one year.  Pounded.

STC, you are reading my mind.

Best sup'n is between three weeks ago when a good south swell hit Santa Cruz.  It just seemed like I was always in the right place.  3-4' OH and some bigger, with 15 wave sets;
and another day when both my boys, and my wife and I, were all out SUP'n at San Elijo.  It was waist high, but we had a break all to ourselves and for a couple hours, it was just the family having fun. It can be hard to get the boys off their 6' boards.

Worst day- there really hasn't been a worst day.  Even when I don't catch too many due to crowds or whatever, its just nice to be out there.
