So how was your SUP adventure?

Hey man- I've been out a couple of times so far. It is great to be on the water, so close and able to stand up and get the full view. But, it isn't as easy as it looks. The boards I have used have all been a little too small/light. I need a big, heavy 14' touring style board to float me right and provide the stability these wobbly knees and ankles want.

That being said, the workout is great. A lot of SUPers are pretty ripped. The core muscles get put to the test.

Here are some FB pics from an outing with the local Surfrider Chapter celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Clean Water Act with a paddle rally on the Potomac at the Georgetown waterfront. I'm only in one of them and kneeling at that. The board that day was an inflatable and if I wasn't moving fast not too stable for me.

Where the heck did summer go? Hope all is well.
