A Kona coming at you at 30 mph is scary.

Can't wait to see what GPS you get with the Volar. I've seen you moving on that too.

That's amazing speed without foostraps!
He does have an advantage with no daggerboard slot on a SUP...I do get a small fountain of water coming up the slot when the Kona is up and moving.

Let me know if I made any mistakes

Here is what I’ve got
