Edinardo-
I have not done windSUP but I know people who do. They say it is fun and easy for a wide range of conditions. The Bic board looks great for that. I hope to do some in the future for kicks and giggles. I have done alot of windsurfing in my day but have not sailed in 10 years due to kiteboarding. I do a fair amount of SUP as well. I hope you enjoy it. What lake are you on?

The small Oquirrh Lake in South Jordan. This year they will start to allow SUP for Daybreak residents.

I thought they always allowed SUP on the Daybreak Oquirrh Lake for residents? I used to paddle there after work until I got kicked off for not being a resident. That was kind of a bummer as I enjoyed paddling there after work. You need a pretend roommate? I would love to be able to paddle there again.

The AST Silver construction Starboard SUP boards have a mast plug/thread (for a windsurf rig.)
The Drive 10'5 x 30 is a good board.
I could sell you one for $1200 plus shipping if ya like.
