I know we see a lot of surf vids, but I particularly liked this one. Had a good vibe. It's about 11 1/2 minutes and in French. Lots of barrel rides. Particularly liked the dad surfing with his kid and his wife - about 8 1/2 min into it). On one ride, all three were on the same board. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SbUHuhCGVY
So the guy, in the beginning with the weird board with straps, gets into the wave on a SUP. Then throws his paddle and hops off the SUP to ride the wave. Sounds like fun for all, except the poor schmoos that are in front of him.
I saw the SUP paddle being tossed but missed that he had jumped off the SUP and continued with the foot-strapped, fin-less board, until you pointed it out. Maybe we should start a spin-off thread on the pros and cons of SUP ditching and paddle tossing.
