(As before, none of this information is going to result in spam or bother for you, we promise!)

SUP on Flat Water (i.e: cruising/exploring/distance training/downwinders)

Do you paddle on flat water? Yes: No:
Do you own a board for this purpose? Yes: No:
Do you anticipate purchasing future boards for this purpose? Yes: No:
What percentage of your paddleboarding is currently on flat water?
How do you see this side of the sport developing for you?

What percentage of your paddleboarding is in the surf?

Finally, anything else you'd like to suggest or tell us about?

If you're in the industry, please tell us what you are up to! If you're importing a brand, stocking SUP in your shop, running a hire centre or school or producing any SUP-related product, then we should definitely talk...

Obviously we're not talking stupid money here, certainly under $20 per issue. But if there is enough momentum for a decent quality mag where we can spend extra on real glossy paper and really great pic (a bit like the US mag Stand-up Paddle Journal), then great!

If you can write or take photos, and would like to contribute about any aspect of SUP, then please let us know. Realistically, it's not likely to result in great rewards and riches initially. But if the magazine takes off then we'd certainly aim to offer a contributor budget. Or 'contra' in terms of coverage for sponsors etc...
