It looked like fun to try a sail on the SUP in (really) small waves. So I bought a 6.2 Global wave sail from MauiSails and gave it a try after mounting a bigger wave fin on the SUP Board. Sailing up-wind went relatively well, to my surprise. There is definitely no planning with the Whopper, but with some additional power of the sail it is easy to glide from small waves.

This is going to be great! Can't wait to see these machines racing.

Yesterday evening, no sense to go to the gym. tried the SUP instead. Quit impressed about the ease of this board. very stable because of its width but still short enough to fit into my small garden shed. Will try some small waves soon, looking forward to that. Will be lots of swimming I guess.
Looking forward to that!!
Lets see if I can get any Localsa interested in SUP.
