Is that the same place that wasn't too keen on SUP's?
If so what is the vibe now?
PS pics please Brendan.
I am very envious.

Interested in whats the Costings for you, Looks like a good set up.

Thanks for the info, I am seriously considering doing the same, I have looked at all the info and it does look like good value with a great set up

Now to discuss with the Minister for Finance....just brought flowers home today....timing is almost right...

Not sure if the sup will fit on the plane as it looks tiny, have the airline confirmed you can take it?

Look forward to the photos and stories - hope you have a great trip. I am still keen to head over that way in late Feb.

Hey Bnaccas - was that price inclusive of flights as well? Who you flying with - Air Pacific?

Yeah inclusive of flights. I'm flying Virgin domestic to Sydney then Air Pacific for all other flights.

One thing it didn't include was boat hire. Split between 6 should be about $20 to $25 per day.
We'd expect to take the boat maybe 5 times during the trip.

We're staying at Christmas Island Surf Camp

According to an email we got he is not against SUPs and said we can bring them but his concerns were that the likelyhood of a more serious injury was increased. In the wrong hands this is certainly the case and i think his concerns are warranted given the distance to any decent medical facilities (and from some of the SUP riders i've seen), but i guess the same injuries can happen on any other surf craft. At the end of the day if he wants our money he doesn't have much choice.

We'll let you all know how we go, we'll be the lab rats or test pilots (i prefer the later)
