We like to think of ourselves as swell chasers.

Love it!!!!  Major props to you and your bud for hitting the road/water for significant distance probably knowing the swell wasn't gonna be much and still making the best of it!  Super cool!  I'd been out there in those conditions in a heart beat!

Great tunage and love the stoke factor!

Look forward to more!

This is one of the advantages of SUP Surfing. If there's a wave, you can probably catch it. It may be slow and mushy, but it's still a ride.

Some days are better than others, but any day in the ocean is a good day... :)

That was at least 1.9 feet on some of those.  ;D
Looked like a really fun session.  To bad there was such a crowd.   ;)

Better than 1" at 6 secs! I always say "At least it was glassy" on the clean small days. Enjoyed your vid, dude.
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"
