Since the early days of SUP in Europe, Kik and L’Ours were stand up on long distance boards. Nobody or close to was able to surf a SUP in Europe and these 2 guys were cruising unbelievable distances alone, by day or by night.
It was a very nice time for them. But GONG stopped the communications on this programme years ago to be more readable by customers. Kik and L’Ours never stopped to work on this insane field of pleasures, they were just waiting people to be ready…
SUPer : Patrice Guénolé on a 14′ Proto GONG Reventon.
