If you haven’t yet heard of Brazilian Luiz Diniz from Brazil, you’re about to. He’s an underground shredder from Brazil that SUP surfs good. Really good, in fact. He’s only been stand up paddling for a little more than a year but it appears as if he’s done it his whole life. It’s obvious he has a background in traditional surfing which is why he’s been able to transition to a SUP so well.
Just when you thought that the crossovers in SUP were over we see a new attempt at combining stand up paddling with boxing. Fun? Definitely. Entertaining? Oh yeah. Practical and safe? Probably not.
It’s no secret by now that Shakira Westdorp is one of the best female SUP surfers in the world. She’s got loads of talent and a big bag of tricks. Heck, she even makes it looks easy (which it isn’t). With it being in the middle of winter in Australia, Shakira decided to escape the busy lineups in her hometown of northern New South Wales and head 100km’s south to find a couple uncrowded beach breaks. Check out the video from her little trip here.
El Niño was pretty much all anyone could talk about this past winter in the surf community, and rightfully so.

Mo Freitas was one to have reaped the benefits this winter from El Niño and he just released an edit from his very busy winter on the water.
