Interesting post on Swellinfo - someone posted a video of Adriano Lima killing it on a shortboard SUP which has gotten some pretty positive reactions so far from prone crowd...

Guy was awesome and was remarkable with little last microsecond adjustments not to hit others in the line up.  Big powerful guy too.   I love Dire Straits.  Crowded spot and he just waded thru it like there wasn't a soul in the place.  Pretty cool.

There is nothing bashful about this guy.  He cranks spray over everyone near him, charges through the crowd, and surfs the oxygen out of those waves.  Clearly an alpha.

I wouldn't necessarily say it's an alpha male thing. Just more of a Brazilian thing.

Most Brazilians love to have fun and show off in the water. In my trips to Brazil, I've found Brazilians surfers are much more tolerant of SUPs and are more friendly in the water. However, that may not be the case everywhere in Brazil.

Shortboard moves, but still great style and nice use of the paddle.  Love it!  I gotta watch this a few more times....

damn!! this guy knows how to stick and move. waiting for all the comment from shortoarders about "he shouldnt have been out there when it's that busy on that big of board". he was obviously doing just fine. dude rips.

was hoping that it was adriana lima (not adrianO) ripping SUP in her underwear but what can you do  8)
