creek and Sunova covering the East Coast this week- join us!
« on: November 29, 2015, 07:49:01 PM »
So…. one thing leads to another, and HA!…..a 67 year old guy, gets called off the bench, to do an East Coast run with a great SUP company!

My quest for a Sunova Speeed led me directly to the factory last spring…. it was the only way to get one at that time.

I was so stoked about the board that my vids and posts got Sunova’s attention.

I have been friends on FB with all the Sunova freaks all over the world… and we are a pretty stoked bunch.
Who am I kidding… it’s more like a cult!
Sunova SUPsters, know how amazing these boards are!!!!

Bert Burger and Martin Jandke (owners of Sunova) are in the trenches with all the  "Sunova Stokers”…. just a couple of crazed surf rats themselves.
Martin built and runs the factory in Thailand where Sunova’s are made.
Bert shapes the magic and is head test rider.

About a month ago, Martin aka  ”Tino” emailed me a question:
"Do you want to join me on a trip down the Eat Coast, visiting shops, demoing boards?”
Heck yeah!!!!! Sign me up!

So here I am, in the game… thanks coach!  8)

Martin & I will be making a 7 day run from Maine to Florida starting Thursday, Dec 3.
If you are interested in seeing some new Sunova’s…. maybe demoing…. if we have the time….
PM me… I’ll see if we can work out a few “Zoner” sessions… it would be cool to meet more of you!

Boards we will have
8’10 Speeed
9’5 Speeed
9’2 Flow
10’6 Surf
Plus some super sweet Sunova  shortboards  (5’10 - 6’0 ) and longboards (9’6)

That is sooo cool. Good job, creek! No NJ itinerary?  :( I woulda def been stoked to meet you and trying one of those boards!
One could go into a mall in Kansas and ask a teenager "What is a surfer looking for?, and the answer will always be, "The perfect wave"

I know it's only 2 hours from home but feel free to swing through Narragansett on your way back and stop by our new place. The couch may not be unpacked yet but the vodka will.

Where are you going to be at Hampton?  I'll be there.  I'm pretty sure I have Thursday off.

I was just recently talking to Phil at CR about the Sonovas, saying that would be a good brand for them to carry.
