And to top it off some SUP's in Malibu were just removed from the surf zone by the coast guard. Even though the ruling doesn't deal with that. The SUP haters are going to use it to push local laws to limit our access. It's going to get ugly, get ready for the fight.

Coming from kiteboarding I could always kind off understand why people were worried about us. Looking at sup your are nowmore or less of a danger for yourself and those arround you than a surfer
