A great thanks to Fanatic Sup for welcoming me to their family.

I am so excited to announce my recent appointment of ambassador for Fanatic Sup. To say anything else but gratitude would be an understatement. Fanatic is a legendary company that has been around since 1981! Their boards and all their products are top notch and built in the same facilities as other top boards.

The model I am riding for the majority of my training is the Blitz, 14×25.5. I also have the Ray Air Premium for touring and some lake days. The Blitz handles all conditions favourably. From ocean mayhem to calm lake days. Upwinding, Quartering, Downwinding, Island crossings are all comfortably managed with the Blitz. With the current width on my Blitz at 25.5 it is surprisingly stable. The secondary stability is also quite comforting.

The Ray Air Premium is a fantastically lively and playful for a 13.6 inflatable touring board. Not to the point of being challenging. Looking forward to loading it up shortly for some winter sup camping.
