Your compilation video of your March sessions was really nice to watch. Nice to see a sup video during this "stay at home" pandemic.

Thanks Night Wing

BTW, you've got a nice looking NSP sup. I'm just curious. If you don't me my asking, what is the model of your NSP and what is it's length and width?
This is an NSP 06 coco All Rounder SUP 10'6 Aqua, 10'6 x 32 x 4 1/2 and 187 L. I'm quite happy with it so far, it meets my requirements especially for these long river trips where I have to paddle in various conditions, it's good for ocean surfing as well and price was reasonable.

That March update is no less than amazing and spectacular. The drone footage really enhances production. Looks like you've check all the safety boxes w/that pack and paddle leash. Keep on that bore, Mayanmar.
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"

Thanks for the reply. The reason I asked is because sometimes I sup surf where the surf forecast calls for small waves, but when I travel to my favorite surf spot, the waves are tiny waves which look a lot like your tidal bore waves. Lots of liters in a sup, at least for me, work very well for sup surfing tiny waves.

When I was researching for a sup, I had considered the NSP All Rounder which you sup surf. My Blue Planet Duke (10'5" x 32" x 4 1/2" @ 190 liters) is very close to your All Rounder in specifications. At the time, I could never figure out if the All Rounder has a vent plug. But I did like the All Rounder's 5 fin boxes.

Anyhow, your NSP All Rounder does a nice job on those tiny waves which the tidal bore produces. Again, thanks for sharing your compilation of your March sessions and the info on your sup.

Love your spirit of adventure Myanmar SUP man. Your interaction with the local fisherman always puts a smile on my face. They probably think your're a bit crazy:)
It's not overhead to me!
8'8" L-41 ST and a whole pile of boards I rarely use.

Thanks for your comments surfercook. That's right, I try to think of anything that can improve safety. I use paddle leash when I expect rough conditions although it's not very comfortable to paddle with it. I would be in big trouble if I dropped it in the middle of the river, so I cannot compromise on security.

Yes the NSP All Rounder is doing well on those waves and allows me to enjoy pretty long rides. It is also comfortable enough to paddle for hours at a good pace to reach far sections of the river.
