Most of the BWD crew are on sub or near 100L boards which are completely different. Add in the leverage of a paddle and they snap turns as well as a short board and certainly better than anything else can in all sorts of lousy conditions. That's a huge part of the appeal, watch who is catching the most waves at JR or LB and who is making the most of them. That sea lion is not a good measuring stick for a performance wave SUP.
And just to show how far it can be taken, Bernd was riding a 21" wide, sub 6' 75L board this week. At 150lbs that thing was going down the line just as fast as any short boarder and hitting the lip plenty hard.

Don't forget to bring a towel!
Ya...what Tony said!
Robin I'm sure I'll get flamed by Tony, but everything I have seen of those look great. Or better yet fun and fast. It will be a great board to start on and progress I bet. Maybe one day you will be on a tiny board but you do need to put in the time on something like this.
Most of us have had something in this ballpark in the beginning...well this is the coolest mind you.
See you in the huge lineup brah!
