I’m happy to say (even though I look unhappy in this pic!)
that the NEW gongsup shortsups have arrived.
The first paddle on the 6’9 MUTANT was on Saturday night in Langland bay in flat water and even though 6’9 sounds short it floated my 86kg (13.5 stones) with ease.
With 116 litres of volume and a full template nose to tail its all good so far …..now the wait for waves where these shortsups should really start to show their bloodlines.
The 7’4 with 122 litres of Volume and 32” wide is another stable platform which may surprise many, not much row effect in either boards which will mean they will hopefully catch waves easily!
A couple of kids at Langland seemed very interested in the 6’9… complaining it was hard to transport their 10ft SUP on the bus, so with shortsups inevitable in the mainstream market at some point , it begs the question , what are you waiting for ?
Wave pics and reviews soon
