Still waiting for that video🤔....but went ahead and ordered an 8’10
STEEZE to fill out the quiver. I have an 8’5 Speeed and 10’ Performance longboard SUP and the STEEZE fits right in the sweet spot. Have only ridden the STEEZE a few times and still waiting to see how it rides in quality surf.  Initial impression....long enough for great glide and nose riding... and short enough (with thin rails and pulled in tail to be quick and lively... they may have just pegged it right as a “quiver killer”!!! 👍😳👍... I see a lot of fun days ahead riding the STEEZE!!

Not sure why the videos didn't show up from the link?? You should be able to  see the "surf " video if you scroll down on the "JAX SUPer Group" Facebook page.... and can see the video with all the cool stuff about MagBay by scrolling down on my Facebook page..."Tim Ellis"..   (I live in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla)...

Maybe someone smarter than me will know how to post them better🤔👍!'

SUP General / Fun trip... Fun boards

« on: December 13, 2017, 07:59:28 PM »

Was down in Baja at Magdelana Bay a few weeks ago. We caught some fun surf on some fun boards. Chris Trip and I were riding Sunova Speeds and a Flow. Sup board builder Skip Smith was ripping on his SKIP SMITH CUSTOM. Mag Bay is a special place and I recommend it to anyone looking for a great SUP Adventure👍😎👍!!

SUP General / Nice Vid of a fun swell!!

Had some good waves here last week and Dasher, a local photographer put together this really nice video👏👏👍!! Really enjoyed watching it but totally bummed I was out of town and completely missed the swell😕!!! Maybe my SUP friends will buy me a six pack for being the sacrificlal lamb and leaving town..so the surf would be so good🤔😶!

SUP General / Re: The Hobie Eclipse infomercial - Boring.. but interesting industry perspective

« on: November 23, 2016, 03:16:40 PM »

Just wanted to chime in... My wife Teri was an avid flat water paddler. We enjoyed the comraderie with other SUPers and had some great paddling adventures👍.. However, 3 shoulder surgeries in 2 years and continuing shoulder pain forced her to give up SUPing (something that itself caused more angst than the shoulder pain)...Then I saw the Eclipse and although skeptical we gave it a try. Was very impressed, both in terms but of quality of product and speed of the board. Best of all was the joy Teri experienced getting back on the water!! Excited that we're heading back down with our SUP group in a couple of months to Crystal River for our annual paddle with the Manatees.. And I'm thinking I may need to start training a little so I can keep up with Teri on her "hot-rod" craft!!👍😎 Tim

NightWing...the board I'm riding is a 9'2 30 inch wide JP Australia Pro Surf model... (I've lost some weight since I bought it a couple of years ago and my go to board at home is an 8'5 Sunova  Speeed...)
Tom... I was out there several years ago and caught some fun surf! (I think I rented a board from you👍😀!!) Now that I've left a board out the I hope to "visit" more often!!
Just wanted to mention that the vibe in SoCal was very mellow this year.👏👏!! It did seem that there were fewer SUPers in the water than in years past🤔?
Here a few more pics from the trip
