Is there a trick to carrying the board when there's a bit of wind, so I don't look like a complete dork with any muscle?

Kirsten, it might seem obvious but you have to carry the board in the line of the wind - downwind position.  It's not easy but what are you doing going out in real windy conditions anyhow?  Shocked Dude's right, get a nice strong guy to do it for you - got any pics to post  Huh  Wink

Forget it, impossible not to look as though you're struggling  Sad With such a great sport there has to be a drawback and that's it - isn't it?   Cool

Kirsten, I have taken to carrying my board on my head.  Then it doesn't get blown around by the wind - did you try that?

OK, so I have not done this but I think I am going to try it next time it's windy out. I am thinking about carrying my SUP like the old long boards, holding it by the nose and dragging the tail in the sand. Thoughts?

Even though pandora bracelets and pandora beads NZ could be Pandora’s hottest proposition, other appealing red pandora jewellery jewellery is usually obtained as well. Lovepod rings and earrings set with red topaz function alongside silver options set with garnet and rhodalite, when red leather cord necklets await the attachment of beads.Established in 1982 by goldsmith Per Enevoldsen,pandora charms nz at the moment is called a jewellery phenomenon inside the international scale.
