"I do it to stay in shape"

That's what they all say at first so they can keep their surfer buddy's happy. 

Great video.  That takes some serious stoke.  I assume its still warmer on a SUP in the winter than in the water unless it's truly blowing.

I know there are several Levy shaped custom SUPs out there. Some of them might even have other brand's stickers on them. If you look close enough.  ;)

@ supthecreek

You New Englander sup types are amazing. I can't imagine surfing in 20 degree F air temperature, the wind blowing 20 mph with water temperature of 38 degrees F. I imagine the wind chill factor has to be brutal. I just can't do that.

With the above said, I envy your types and salute them as well. Thanks for sharing the video.

Had a great session at Second Beach in Newport today.

Food, shower, go to Zone and see a video of folks I have known forever.

Waves from Moonstone in RI to Higgins in ME. So many options.

;D;D
What a great place. And there ARE waves all summer in certain locations. Hehehe.

sweet synopsis of winter sirfing in RI. No place like it in the world.
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"

That's awesome! Hearty souls out there whom I applaud for your grit, and determination, and I'll never whine about "freezing" 58o water, and having to put on sleeves to sup again...well sure I will, but it sounded good anyway.  ;) :D
