just thought a make a page for anyone that SUPS in the Cronulla area.
If you need crew to paddle with like me and don't have anyones numbers, or just post whatever SUP related stuff you like.
There is tonnes of us out there, hopefully we can all enjoy it together.

iam new to the area.
i dont have contacts for many people, thought as most people have smart phones now, it would be another option to seabreeze.
just trying to build the network.
I think sharing the love is a great idea, albeit, Josh there only me and you so far ![]()
Ripple Riders refelcts on the Bay whereas this creates a wider community, is independant of any business interests, can bring together DWinders, open water paddles, surfing at a particular spot and Bay Surf etc..............so I like it
SUPanimal in your current non FB status I will text you anything exciting ![]()
Hi Josh,
There's a few clubs / shops / schools etc in the shire but the problem is it always becomes about making money and being better than the next set up.
all bull**** IMO so if I were you, just make some friends, put their mobiles in your phone and tick tack when it's on with the group of numbers to see who's in and who's not - works a treat for me.
I've a group in Wollongong for harbour and ocean runs, a group close to home at Stanny for surf and the Ripple Riders in The Bay - always someone keen at any location with a couple hours notice.
If you start a 'posse' on FB, beware those with agenda's - I've been there.
I luckily have no connection with shops, clubs anything anymore.
I started this so that others, Not just my 2 usual paddle buddies, could get together and go paddling.
Clubs are fine, but Im not overly keen to pay memberships in order to hangout.
Its not a club, shop or team.
just crew paddling.
see you out there
Sounds like a good idea josh, be a good way of getting more people into the DW'ers. Don't worry there's alway's going to be a grump against the idea, if you don't like it don't join it. simple.
Mate I don't do FB , but if your doing another DW can you PM me and as long as the kids sports aren't in the way ..... I'm there should be right over the school holidays.![]()

yeh of course.
its a hard taskt o txt, PM msg and write a post all in the space of an arvo seabreeze.
by making a FB page it hopefully reaches the majority of people, whether on the internet or mobile phone.
will do my best tho.
more the merrier
Just look for the paddlers in The Bay early morning when the tide is lower than high, a little (or a lot) of swell is angling in and you notice fat, geriatric or abnoxious types on the water - that'll be us.....see ya' at Lane Cove if not before. ![]()
what board do you guys ride.
i paddled there all last week and apart from all the out of control clubbies, there wasnt many people on sups out there.
is a rare, fun place when its on...
geez, clubbies out of control, that seems to be happening all the way up and down the coast....
from my one or two ripple sessions you'll find them on Lairds, big Lairds...![]()
![]()
HaHa - yep, 12 & 14 foot Lairds are the boards of choice - oh, the fat teddy rides a Naish Nalu - Mr ShireSUP. ![]()
Although, of late, the OC1 is getting a guernsy of course.
My 17' Naish Glide goes OK too.
....we park right next to the BBQ's at Bonnie Vale as it's a requirement post session (pre session too for ShireSUP)...and it's closer to Gloria Jeans Coffee Sutherland or Engadine for those needing a kick start.
Josh, it's ON a hell of a lot more than people assume. ![]()
if you ride a 12'6 raceboard its on everynight.
although last week i could've ridden the surf sup.
catchya out there
