At EARTH SURF & SUP our mantra, Deep into Nature, is as much about the equipment we use as the places we go. The boards are the tools we use to engage and interact with our surroundings. We feel the same principles that guide us in our daily lives should be applied to the equipment we build and use.
The BISCAYNE 12’6 x 28’’ is designed for Touring & Exploration. Whether it be day trips or week long expeditions, these boards have exceptional glide to help you get Deep into Nature and far from civilization. Ideal lighter weight to medium size riders (50-85 kg / 110-190lbs), the Biscayne’s unique chine and bottom contours keep it stable in all water conditions, even when loaded front and back with dry bags full of gear. Reinforced attachment points allow you to secure equipment and accessory items with ease. The rails are reinforced with flax fiber, known as ‘natures kevlar’, for added durability both on and off the water. A Cork deck pad provides exceptional comfort while being true to the sustainable EARTH SUP ethos.

SPORT BEANS PROVIDE THE ENERGY YOU NEED!
Myth: Complex carbohydrates are a better energy source than simple carbohydrates when exercising.
Fact: All carbohydrates are ultimately processed into the same simple sugar component (glucose) for energy. Gram for gram, complex carbs provide the same amount of energy as simple carbs.
Simple carbs are derived from glucose, fructose, or a combination of the two (examples: Sport Beans, sport drinks, fruits, sodas).
Complex carbs are derived from a complex structure of glucose called starch (examples: potatoes, breads, pastas, some sport gels).
Both types of carbs share the same basic sugar unit glucose.
SPORT BEANS HIGH GI BENEFITS YOUR WORK OUT!
Myth: High GI foods negatively impact physical performance.
Fact: High GI foods like Sport Beans are optimal during exercise since muscles use glucose (sugar) as fuel and need it quickly.
Different types of carbohydrates cause glucose to appear in circulation at different rates.
How quickly circulating glucose levels rise is referred to as the Glycemic Index (GI).
A high GI food means glucose gets into the system faster than a low GI food.
The GI for a food cannot be predicted based upon whether it is a complex or simple carbohydrate.
Research studies support the use of high GI foods over low GI foods during and after exercise as a means to boost performance.
SPORT BEANS WILL NOT CAUSE A "CRASH"
Myth: High GI foods create a "spike" and "crash" in energy levels.
Fact: High GI foods like Sport Beans do create a rapid rise in blood sugar, providing quick energy. However, there is no actual "crash" that occurs - blood sugar levels simply return to normal.
Consumption of all carbohydrates results in a rise in circulating levels of sugar.
Complex carbs are derived from a complex structure of glucose called starch (examples: potatoes, breads, pastas, some sport gels).
The body handles this rise by releasing insulin, which ushers sugars into the body's cells returning levels to normal.

The brand new TECHNO FOIL has been conceived for freeriding AND foil-boarding with one single board. It means you can take advantage of the foil for riding in light winds, then switch to freeride once the wind strengthens.
In his latest video called Sculptures, Greg Rabejac takes us on a discovery of a slab in South West France. An atypical wave that is formed and disperses rapidly, so quick that an onlookers naked eye mightn't pick up on it from the ledge. This wave, which has traveled thousands of kilometers across the Atlantic, for a split second becomes an ephemeral sculpture. Thanks to his photographs, we are able to witness this natural phenomenon in artform.
Every day, the ocean puts on a magnificent show, and we have Greg Rabejac to thank for capturing this underappreciated sight to behold... A well-known name in the worlds of surfing and ocean photography, photographer Greg Rabejac was featured on the TV show, Thalassa, on December 10th. More than 2 million viewers enjoyed the work of this passionate artist. At OXBOW, we have been fortunate enough to know and have been collaborating with Greg for several years. Our resident photographer, he is the man behind the lens who captures and transforms our surfers exploits. He encapsulates the ocean like no other; captivating all lovers of the sea and surf perfectly. Greg Rabejac stands out from his peers by focusing his work not on the surfer, but on the object of his desires: the wave. From small to gigantic, like Belharra, Greg spends hours in the water, in summer and winter, day and night, capturing the artistic beauty behind every wave.
Around this time of the year, we start to think about our goals and aspirations for the new year and how we plan to accomplish them. But before we fully turn our heads towards another exciting new year, we want to give a nod to some of the best SIC moments from 2018. From inspiring SIC athlete performances to new SIC products and industry awards, 2018 has been an extra special year. Take a look at some of our favorite moments below!
1) PADDLE IMUA KEIKI O KE KAI
The annual Imua Keiki O Ke Kai brings together racing and fundraising to benefit the special needs children of Camp Imua, and this year’s event was nothing short of amazing. Lead by our fearless leader Andrea Moller, Imua Keiki O Ke Kai, which means “go forward, children of the sea,” connects children with special needs to the ocean and the local Maui community of ocean athletes, as well as builds community among families. Tons of stoked athletes and happy kids could be seen all around the water at Kahului Harbor on Maui and SIC Ambassadors Andrea Moller, Jeremy Riggs, Kody Kerbox, Livio Menelau, and Master Shaper Mark Raaphorst were some of the many faces in attendance this year.
2) SIC WINS SUPCONNECT BRAND OF THE YEAR & RACE BOARD OF THE YEAR

OXBOW Ambassador, Pierre Lopez presents the Dune Paddle Crossing
Imagine a rowing race between Lacanau and the Dune du Pilat. An oceanic marathon of almost 50km ... The Dune Paddle Crossing is the crazy project of our ambassador Pierre Lopez . Lifeguard in Lacanau-Océan, Pierre practices paddleboard prone in all conditions. He was inspired by the mythical races of the Molokai2Oahu in Hawaii and the Catalina Classic in California to create the Dune Paddle Crossing. Much more than a race, it's a real adventure where participants row between Lacanau's baïnes, Cap Ferret's tip and the Arcachon basin passes. More than 6 hours of effort in sight of the arrival at the foot of the most beautiful dune in the world.
Pierre invited his friends to make this first test edition, Ludovic Dulou, Olivia Piana, Mederic Berthe, Alexy Berthet, Antoine and Olivier Darrieumerlou. We followed them with the cameraman Pierre Frechou, to make you live from inside (and from the air) this incredible crossing.
