What's your SUP board?
 
I'd like to get an idea of what everyone's riding in this area.

I picked up an inflatable ULI a couple of years ago. Couldn't face the prospect of a 12th long board kicking around the house at the time. Today, there are some nice Jimmy Lewis boards that might do a better job at my 190 lbs.+ at times. Say like the Distance Stand-up or All Around Paddleboards.

This is the one my wife bought and uses on me.

Just kidding.

I have the 11' NSP and my wife has the 11' One World.

The NSP is great and right now hard to come by in our area. I got mine at Water Sports West.

Another fantastic board. Swallow tail makes it real easy for turning and catching waves.

If you like to ride in surf, go for smaller, but if you are primarily in flatter water and paddling for fitness, go for 11 to 12.

10's are really slow, but have good maneuverability in surf, just like a lot of board sports, going too small makes you very one dimensional.

If you weigh over 200, go for the 12 footers, under that can look at 11 to 11'6 for flatter water.

C4 SUP's
 
I've been riding a C4 Waterman Holoholo.

It has been awesome. Mostly flat water paddling around here and it is easily 1mph faster. Not so much for surfing but it works for small rollers. This board was hard to get a hold of but was worth the wait.

The 11'6" is also a great allround board for Florida.. Probably will eventually be a second board for me.

On the SUP theme-I ride a longboard skateboard and found a skateboard paddle. It is a great time and workout and a session can be had anywhere there's pavement. Check out the website Kahuna creations.com. I have one if anyone local wants to try it.
