Thanks, this confirms my thinking that this would be a viable work around for low volume SUPs that are not really big enough to standup paddle comfortably.
Well, I hadnāt really given this serious consideration, but now you got me thinking. Definitely an option to bypass the pop up problem. I think it would probably be an investment for the craft that would be a bit more than my current budget, tho.
You can make your one surfski. Eps 20kg/m3 glass fiber and epoxy, exactly like a surfboard.
Like the top image, but nothing to hold you down on the board. I used a regular SUP and paddle once and an old windsurfing board with a kayak paddle once.
Les Waddle (Tridrles) added outriggers to an old board to make a SUP. Havenāt heard from him for a while.

Marko does a Surf-Ski cut too. Scrub and glass.

Ok then this could be a possibility. Not ready to take that leap yet, but its on the table now.
Definitely opens up some possibilities in my mind!
This is something I had also been considering. I found these online just looking to see if anyone else thought of it or tried it!! I was wondering if you could ride a board (on a wave) that is modified like this. Would love to know more! Glad Iām not the only crazy one
