My daughter departed to school with both SUP's on top a week ago so we are now officially empty nesters. She has had a constant line of guys asking her to take them out on the SUP's and there is a small lake about 5 minutes away so it is an every afternoon event. The strip built board has been the hands down winner over her top of the line rogue board. So the point of the post is the common question on return in investment in strip builds. If she gets three free dinners a week the board will probably be paid for in one year. If she gets married I have hit the jackpot.
