We have relative meld temperatures this year, and we are enjoying it. Both air and water are around 6 degrees celcius (= 42 fahrenheit), we kind a like this global warming thing  ;)

Thanks Guys
The raceoard is a NSP touring 14 X 28, not the fastes or lightest board around , but it can take a beating and handles most conditions resonably well, all though the nose- shape can be challenging when the downwind conditions get rougher..

That is awesome.  Those waves remind me of a slightly mushier version of Lowers here in SoCal.  Didn't know you had such nice waves up there.  Is this a rare thing or do you get these kinds of conditions often?

We do get good conditons pretty often especially up north, Surfing an SUP is still not very common , but it is growing. Here a video from my favourite spot in september

Nice waves, SUP surfing, an video edit! Diggin' that progressive heavy rock jam and the effect at the end! I'm gonna steal that one for my next vid if you don't mind. Couldn,t have been too cold, that one dude isn't wearing gloves!
One could go into a mall in Kansas and ask a teenager "What is a surfer looking for?, and the answer will always be, "The perfect wave"
