@zaniac1 just finished 3rd overall in the *new* longboard SUP division at the @appworldtour Gran Canaria Pro-Am ~ just missing out on the final with teammate Benoit Carpentier.⁣ ⁣ Zane was riding (Ben's) @starboardsup Longboard SUP in the timeless Limited Series construction.⁣ ⁣ Zane is loving the new longboard format:⁣ ⁣ "Leco Salazar took me out in the Semi Final but I was very close to advance surfing with good strategy and combination of noserides and powerful turns. I was waiting for the wave I needed in the end, I had a great opening nose ride and a solid close-out section to hit off the top, but just came unstuck from this finishing maneuver.⁣ ⁣ This was the ticket to the final and I am beating myself up for sure. Watched the live replays and feel I could have easily secured that heat, but especially missed the opportunity with the mistake I mentioned above coming unstuck on my finishing turn.⁣ ⁣ Considering riding all borrowed gear and a board from Benoit that I only got to ride during this competition I am happy to at least make the podium. I'm now very fired up on the new Longboard SUP Benoit has and it worked great.⁣ ⁣ Loving the LB SUP format they are introducing in the APP, sounds like they will continue with the format and division moving forward for the tour in 2023. I believe it is great for our sport, and especially the growth of our sport."PC: APP World Tour⁣ ⁣ #starboardsup #longboard #paddleboarding #appworldtour
