Im going to the states in late June then home via a few weeks in Hawaii. Very interested in looking/finding out more about the Sim Sup boards with a view of purchasing one and bringing home via Hawaii!!! They seem to have a good wrap from those that own one.

Wondering what sort of conditions suit the boards most. Surf mostly beach breaks at home with 2-4' mushy waves generally. Any information/advice would be greatly appreciated.

email the guy, i spoke to him a while back, very informative.
they are pretty price competitive!
sic looking boards.

And make sure you pick it up in person in Santa Cruz, great town.

Kirk is very helpful, did the same thing a few years back. Emailed him & organized a board to purchase. Used it for a while in Santa Cruz then got him to freight it back to Aus.

its still my favourite board & will definitely be purchasing another one when this one dies.

cheers

i'd go with his ST model. with a wide tail, having a bit of a fish shape seems to help. i have another Simmons-shaped board with a straight edge tail and it just doesn't have the grip on bigger waves that the ST has. great boards; i've had my ST for over 2 years now and still haven't found anything better. and no damage either.

I presently own two L41 ST's, an 8'0" and 8'4". These boards are heaps of fun when the waves are small or conditions are complete crap. I find they can feel a bit out of control when the surf gets into the overhead range, probably due to the wide tail. The boards are extremely well built and can take a beating. A great addition to any quiver.
