Gear Talk / Opinions on Laird LXT 14'

« on: July 30, 2015, 10:46:10 AM »

Anyone have experience using this board? I cant find much information on it anywhere.

I'm looking to primarily use it for expeditions, heavily loaded with 50-70lbs of gear. Would be moving from a 14' Bark Expedition board, which has served me very well for the past five years.

I've never used a displacement board for loaded expeditions - wondering if this would be a smart move.

Downwind and Racing / Trip Report: SUP Camping at Kennedy Lake BC

« on: August 22, 2012, 09:34:28 AM »

Here are a few pics from a four-day SUP expedition to Kennedy Lake, located near Long Beach on the west coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia. This is a large freshwater lake that drains into the ocean. It's a great paddling spot with lots to explore, very few boaters, warm clear water, old growth cedars, and beach camping.

Regional / SUP in Victoria BC

Just putting an invite out there to anyone in Victoria BC who wants to get out for a paddle. I've been around most of the local salt and fresh water - happy to get out for a paddle or help anyone out just starting.
