I have tried diffenerent SUPs along the Dansih coast (Onshore to Side shore conditions) and Flat water fjords.
I find it best to use the rails, i.e. stay close to the mastfoot, press with your heels on the rail. This gets me upwind.
Getting planing on the SUP needs almost the same or more wind as getting planning on my 102 L board.
I find the SUP most fun in waves and sub planing wind conditions when the alternative used to be going home or staying on the beach.
