It's amazing what you can do with a little board and a little wave.  This is Fletcher Burton in Pismo.

Southwesterly--you're really on a roll here with this and your "boxy rails" and sumo comments.   :)

Fletcher refused for quite a while to join SUP - but would stand up on his sit-down waveski. I installed foot straps on his Wavemaster, so he could jump it standing up. He is nuts - in a wonderfully positive, energetic way!
