Hi all,
Just wondering how long people have been involve in SUP in the Newcastle area? Also, how long before you got your own equipment It wasn't something I had ever really come across until last year when I first had a go...guess it's like lots of things, you don't know what you don't know!
Hoping to get out on the water again sometime soon.
The Newcastle SUP Club is starting to take off. Great vibe, so if you are in the Newcastle area don't be afraid to join!
i'v been surfing on a sup out Dixon and Merewether for about 4 years now, i first started with my dad and mate Glenn turner and used a 11'2 mal and borrowed Glenns paddle,
then we had a old sail board that Glenn cut down the stringer and put broken surf boards up the middle and glassed it back up stuck some fins in it then i made and went through about 6 paddles ( they were made from broom stick and vacuum cleaner pipe.) now riding a new 7'10 custom c4 waterman and riding for the c4 team, also corefour sup school is in Newcastle, Newcastle sup club and c4 waterman Australia is based in Newcastle.
how much paddling have you done here?
