http://www.supracer.com/worlds-longest-sup-board/ (http://www.supracer.com/worlds-longest-sup-board/) I ran across this the other day and wondered how it would handle one of our channel crossings.
-
That thing is just wrong !!!!!
-
That would look awesome on DJ's little black zook ;D
-
I pity the shaper. Can you say Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
-
Can't help but wonder what kind of rocker/ layup it has. How much it weights as well. Will it fit on my mini cooper? etc. Any shapers want to take a stab at it????
-
That thing would stick out about 7 feet in front and back of my TUNDRA !! DAM .. wonder how it paddles?
-
Well for downwinding I'd guess you'd be getting high centered quite often. It's bad enough on a 17' Bullet in short frequency... like Kihei. This pic that Jeremy took s a great example of that.
-
Actually Randy is on a 16 in that pic.
-
I sure liked your 14'6" for the Kihei run, Headmount.
-
Yes, those kihei runs are prone to that since the intervals are so short. It definitely makes you adjust your trim to suit the conditions. A shorter board lets you surf them from the tail. So fun!!!
-
Nice 12'6" bullet might be the ticket ??
-
short period is most of the stuff we have to play with here on the big island, it's a lot of walking back and forth on the 17'ers
