Look for the no pop up Jaffa Pop.

No i no longer have rusty knees, and i can get onto a wave standing with no paddling or going from lying down and having to pop up .
No I am not SUPing the river wave allows me to ride a short board again ,
And it will be a soft board.............. collisions with the wave walls are likely, at the skill level I will have , likely, some native river brands made in Austria, Germany , Canada, and Switzerland but best candidate still comes out of a shaper I knew in Australia.

Stay tuned

Do shapers do soft boards? Never really thought about it, guess there is no reason why they can’t

It is a moulding and vacuum bagging process, so the original EPS plug may be shaped and then the soft shell blown on.. Boogie board process .
Very much an outthere experience for me!
