Check out the Infinity SUP LOG, a true longboard SUP

This is a sweet board for our longtime surf fans that have converted over to SUP!

Dave Boehne wanted to make an old school log but with big enough dims to stand up paddle on.

This board is a blown up retro log. We make it with a poly blank, standard resin and glass it with volan.

Heavy, 50/50 rails, nose concave, resin tin, glass on fin, and volan glass.

We can customize the template too. We've been making them with round noses as well as square tails.

Rides just like the classic noseriders we have in our surf line. Paddles quick, trims down the line effortlessly and noserides amazing.

Now you tell me, is this a SUP? or a longboard?? Confuse everyone.

Search for th longboard thread. This has been discussed quite a bit.

I will say that there's a lot to be said for just spending some time on a regular longboard without a paddle too. You can probably borrow one or buy one cheap and its a great change up. Unless, of course, you have health problems that prevent it. It changed my fitness this year. I'll probably build a longboard SUP later but while me shoulders hold up, I'm having a ball on a variety of borrowed and owned boards.

Pearson Arrow makes an excellent board, they're in your area, and know your breaks.  Triple win.

at real surf in Oceanside the  shaper is  Shawn Ambrose, he actually shaped my remake of a weber performer.   He has also shaped a sup "weber performer"  might be worth a look see.

12 x 32 is pretty big PO. 

Check out the JL B&B noseriders.  They now come in 3 sizes and two different nose configurations.  Although you could probably ride any of the three lengths.  Since you a re looking for bigger, the 10' x 30" , might be just the ticket.  If you want enhanced lift, go concave nose, if you want a little more speed, get the non-concave nose.
