there's this old saw. eddie p. intentionally shot this video of my style of long board in the humblest of conditions to show what can be done in the least typical venues:

here are some stills of me with my long board now called the exocet curve 11'5.

This video blew my mind when I saw it, much bigger surf than the previous video.

jingebritsen...ya, that video is one that convinced me to get the 11 5... the conditions are sorta similar to the onshore stuff we get here on the great lakes.. looks warmer though...
and that dtl shot, very cool.. does the 10 5 handle much differently than the 11 5?

damel..
ya, thats the kind of stuff im talkin about..

antonious said that the videographer showed late in the day. another frustration of mine, in particular, when i'm lucky enough to get someone to get a few shots of any sort. so his video is of guys that had sailed themselves to near exhaustion. that was a great day up and down the east coast of floirda. note the somewhat conservative moves due to tired sailors and no foot straps. that wave in jupiter and juno is very nice. the continental shelf drops off pretty close to shore and the gulf stream is very near too.

the 10'5 needs more wind, or a 100 lb sailor to pull off the nearly no wind stuff that i do with my 11'5. meanwhile, the 11'5 does not suffer much when the wind comes up. so, with the larger, i get more time on the waves, so i get in my exercise and conditioning in with the sport that i love. no need for much other stuff.

Here's a clip of Andy Brandt on an SUP. it's just a wave or two, but it's pretty cool:

By "Real Waves" do you mean, like, Jaws? or, like, real world mush?

This video Jordan Reid took in Baja this Summer has some cool footage of Fabrice Beaux sailing the RRD SUPER 8'11" SUP.
At 2:21 and again at 3:14. The rest of the video is definitely worth watching but is all short board wave action.

the Kona's can be used in "Real Waves" when the wind is light.

This may not be what you were looking for, w8wind but it's fun to watch Robby Naish in 1984 on a longboard windsurfer.....
