What is better surfing or paddle surfing?

Surfing has it's benefits as well as SUP (stand up paddle) surfing does. Surfing is great if you want just a board that you can paddle yourself into and catch a wave - perhaps do a couple of tricks on the wave and you can socialise while waiting for sets. SUP surfing allows you to not only catch virtually ANY wave you want to - big or minute. Not only that, but you can paddle around just for exercise or socialise with fellow SUP surfers. The only problem is that the SUP set up is far more expensive than that of most surfing set ups. It's not a matter of which is better, but which most appeals, which you can afford, which aspects of the sports you like most, etc. Completely up to you.
