I have SS 9'2"x 29x 4.1 119 lts. Supert thin rails, super great board. If you could ONLY have one (hopefully that will NEVER happen) this would be it.  I'm more of a short board style guy but gotta have one of these in the quiver, rips turns and noserides!

Thanks Creek! About to head out for more on a chilly FL morning.  I guess I shouldn't complain about cold, what's your temp?

I did see the Brevard pics Matt and it was LARGE! But I did  manage a 3 hr sesh locally and slip right back into work mode and hosted an event that evening.  Slept like a rock!

Probably (definitely ) bigger south of Jax.... but whatever.  Jd and Tim, Don, Skip and a 2  guys on large inflatables.  This was a medium size one. Amazing local photographer, he rocks!

So funny this thread is going on right now! I'm ready for my board as well S5 7'4"x27 3/4 107 ltr. Yellow w carbon tape black rails!  5 fin!

  A little clarification- the Simsup x and the 2015 S5 are the same outline and bottom contours- the difference is in the step rail and the funky tail and nose on the X model. 
  The rocker has been relaxed on both new models compared to the 2014 S5 model and is very much in the vanguard  style, S5 if 5 fin which I dig.
Hope this helps

Creek,
  That one is 8'6" x29 111lts. Waters edge black tip, locally shaped and glassed just south of New Smyna Beach.  Nice shapes, light weight and pretty spot on for me at 185-190 lbs or so.  It a keeper!
  But I do have a "tomo" style 7'4" on order from Kirk,,,,cant wait for that!

Twitchy yeah hit me up and we can go for a surf!

You will love Hanna park!  The waves are "surprisingly similar" to the pics....

Thanks  Tim!  👍. 
   I still wake up and realize how sick it is to be back w/in walking distance to the sand!  All due to SUP...

   Love surfing and chasing peaks w you and JD (both early 60's fit and ripping and stoked) and Don (70yrs young  suping, ripping, kiting and amped). It must be the water.....

  I'm sticking around.  What a great "sport".  If you have to get "older" Im gonna be like you all hopefully!

  These are the guys that forged the way for sup up here (and a few others) and have really helped the level of aloha in the water, there are very few problems between any SUP guys and others.

Thanks!  Surprisingly uncrowded, but the 50 degree air and the 56 degree water probably helped!  Been a funky weather week around here, water was a balmy 62 til last Friday and it's been grey and cold until today when it was sunny and chilly but still some super fun waves!
