Sail or paddle?

Windsurfed yesterday so SUP was really wanting its turn.  Prolly could have rigged up a 5.2 here or even drove a little ways to sail where the MM5 showed it.  Eventually caught a few nice rides paddling but it turned out to mostly be a combined day of more intensive research and training.  The wind, chop and mixed swells always makes for a great challenge on any SUP.  I'm always stoked that the 7'11" SUP can handle it so well and still ride waves the way I want it to.  I'm thinking even shorter, narrower, and much lighter for the next one.
