Who is it for?
If you’re looking for a fast, non-inflatable, multi-purpose board to paddle long distances then the Bullet from SIC Maui is worth a look. This stand up paddle (SUP) board comes in the Tuff Carbon Wood (TWC) construction which is durable. The board is 28.25 inches wide making it somewhat stable and the board is fast. Its construction is at an average weight of 27.5 lbs and has 2.5 lbs per foot, which is average for an 11 foot board. Its construction and shape combined make this board diverse in its ability to be exceptional for downwind, touring and racing. Retailing at $1,599, the board sits just above the popular mid-tier market in terms of affordability.
First Impressions
On first impressions, the graphics and color are gorgeous, the shape design is very thoughtful and the construction strikes as durable. The graphics are simple yet stunning and give the board a premium look. The shape design is unique for boards in these categories, offering features tailored for both recreation and competition. The construction does appear rather strong and looks to be able to handle frequent use but needs to be handled carefully. Because the board is 27 lbs it’s slightly difficult to carry however the EZ grab handle makes carrying much easier because you’re able to fully grip the handle. The glide feels fast, which is to be expected since speed-centric designs are fully in place for this board model. Putting everything together, the Bullet is a board for intermediate and advanced paddlers that are interested in finding a multipurpose board great for racing, downwinding and touring.

On October 12, 2015, friends and coworkers LouAnne Harris and Julieta “Jules” Gismondi—aka the Atlantic SUPer Girls—paddled out of New York City with their sights set on Miami, Florida. Over the next four months, the duo experienced strong winds, freezing temperatures, and aching muscles as well as beautiful beaches, personal growth, and an ever-growing thirst for adventure as they paddled down the East Coast. Upon landing in Miami—in addition to raising $16,000 for charity—their epic journey earned them the coveted “Top Expedition” award at the 2016 SUP Awards. Here, the Atlantic SUPer Girls share their story.

Tell us about your background with SUP.
LH: I started standup paddling five years ago working at The Manhattan Kayak Company (MKC) in Manhattan. When I began working the company did not have an official SUP program, but when they launched it the next year I got in on the ground floor and grew with the program.
JG: I was always into watersports. I started rowing at a very young age back home in Buenos Aires, then took up kayaking when I moved to NYC where I became an instructor and guide. In the summer of ‘07, we bought a couple of boards from C4Waterman and got them shipped from Hawaii and it all evolved from there.

Jelly sweets – a favourite source of sugar among many cyclists – have become turbocharged with these Extreme Sport Beans from Jelly Belly.
Sometimes, out on the road during a long ride or sportive, the body craves a hit of simple sugars. For me, having a stash of jelly sweets, or taking advantage of jellies on offer at fuel stops, means I can get these sugars on board easily, with the spike of energy a welcome and tasty relief from fatigue.
Jelly Belly has taken this principle and added extra caffeine and vitamins B1, B2, B3 and C to aid energy release, and potassium and sodium to give you the boost of electrolytes you need for optimum muscle function.
