Attach some weights to the leash plug until it is neutrally buoyant. Weight that sinks it in KG is equal to Volume in L assuming you are in Fresh Water. 4

I'm helping out a bit to organize the first officially CSA/ISA sanctioned Surf SUP contest on Canadian soil. We are working hard to make sure the event is top notch and it would be great to see some Stand Up Zone faces make the trip.

The fun, competitive event invites talented and committed standup paddle surfers in Canada and beyond to shred the waves in Tofino on October 25 & 26, 2014.

The Tofino Paddle Surf SUP Invitational will run as a two day event in Tofino, using a classic heat/judging panel format, and have open pro men’s, amateur and a women's divisions, for this year’s contest.

Gear Talk / Re: Is the Kialoa Insanity the most durable of the lighter paddles?« on: July 30, 2014, 11:53:59 AM »
I switched from a Werner Nitro to a Black Project epic pro a few months ago. 50% lighter then the Werner, with a slimmer shaft, I'll admit I was a bit skeptical at first that I'd break it, but dozens of heavy sessions later it's still mint. Shaft is made in hood river by nolimitz (they make windsurf masts) so you know it's quality. I picked up my two Nitros to take pics to sell last week and I could never go back, it feels so clunky, big and heavy. Similar price. Www.blackprojectfins.com

Gear Talk / Re: RRD board review? Thinking about getting a 7'11" Super V2 classic« on: July 30, 2014, 11:49:17 AM »
I had a 9'2" x 28" RRD diamond wood a few years back that had a great shape but the crappiest construction ever. Glass was absent in some areas. I had to basically throw it away. The board looked nice though.
In contrast I have an RRD 91l FSW windsurfing board that I beat to piss, it takes it, and I love it. Conclusion: keep your fingers crossed. 8
SUP General / Re: Ride a sub-8ft SUP and still dominate the lineup?« on: July 15, 2014, 11:56:16 PM »
With my 7'7" I'd say I've lost my advantage to experienced Longboarders and am somewhere in between where a kook longboarder needs to be and an experienced shortboarder who can get in early.
Standing up high is still an advantage to spot the sets and get in position early though, especially if its a big one and you need to quickly move to the outside to catch it before it closes out. 9

Thanks all for the info.

SUP General / Re: Has anyone done a US SUP Tour event?« on: July 14, 2014, 03:26:58 PM »My advice? Check, Check, Check and whoops 185 lbs. If I go I am entering the Elite/Pro Division, so no worries. Thanks all for the info, need to make the call asap... I'd be flying into LAX and then renting a car from there... just a weekend trip so far too far to drive. Any predictions on that swell forecast... looks small. Will there be waves? 11

Unfortunately that camp ground is completely booked through the weekend....
any other options? 12

There isn't much accommodation information on the website. Is there anywhere nearby to camp or stay for free? It's going to cost a bunch to come down, and if my perception is correct, that is not a cheap hotel area!!!

The Kings one is pretty close. At 185lbs and Expert it says 101L which isn't too far off the 92L I actually ride.

I'm thinking about travelling down to compete in the contest at Zuma, wondering if anyone has some feedback how the events are.
Thanks! 15

Waddell is always fun but a 15 minute drive north.
