Bonga shows amazing style. I grew up longboarding, made the transition to shorties but I really enjoy watching the SUP because you can noseride and all that good stuff. And the paddle seems to add something - another control. I think its very cool.
too bad you dont know him cus he rarely ever SUP's. the only time i see him doing it. is when its BIG (6-8ft. +), contest(makahiki-the BUFF's or any SUP events) or he's doing a photo/video shoot. other than that he rather be riding his LB, fish, towing in, spending time wit the fam bam at haleiwa or having a few wit the boys in the parking lot at haleiwa.
Too bad so many surfers complain, if they only tried it they would find you catch more waves and you dont need surf to have a good time. So try it before grumble.
wish I knew why all these goons were jumpin on the bandwagon....it's like they all got some memo that this was the cool new thing, now they screw up the lineup more than kayaks. Bonga's a great surfer, too bad he lends momentum to this stupid trend........
True, a prick with a SUP is the worst kind ever, but there are nice people that do this and don't clog the breaks. Try it on flat water sometime. I used to mock it till I did it. It's FUN. And now I clog the break less and traverse more....
@johnnylifelive , there are 'goons' on every type of floatation device. If you know how to use it properly and have respect, it doesn't matter what you ride.

Bonga can ride anything and make it look EASY. Strongest surfer in the water today.
