Here are some photos from yesturday.
Sorry about the quality. I reduce the original size so its quicker to upload
Miller taking his virgin canary yellow JL 10'4


The next four photos are of some waves that went by unridden...
But thats ok because it was onshore








Whats that!? I wanna ride that!




Slicing that wave up very nicely.


Up up and away


Look someone dropped 50 bucks... yoik!




WATCH OUT FOR THAT STEP MILLER!


Oops... I guess he didnt hear me


The famous 'Ghostie'. I taught Miller this move.
Only special people have the ability to pull this off

cheers for the pics greeny,,, it looks quite calm on the pics to the choppy windmare it really was.... good to get out tonight and score some glass...

DJ the board isn't too bad for tippness,,,,10'4 x 28.5.....no where near as floaty as the naish though...the sweet spot for paddling is limited to a couple of shuffles of the feet...on the day these pics were taken it was a chop fest out the back with an ugly 10-15kt wind and i only fell in a handfull of times.

the deck pad is unreal...it has raised edges, that you can push the sides of your feet into for extra balance...fantastic idea,

the board feels light, maybe 8-9kgs

nice finish, but it will chip easily


where this boards excells,is in the surf...

it picks up waves easily..either paddling like mad to pick up fat swell or from an almost standing still start on the steeper stuff.

swapping from rail to rail is a synch

and it is quick D.T.L

so thumbs up so far,,,

lookin FWD to many more sessions.

No probs. Come over and I can put the full size images on a thumb drive for you.

Although I was out numbered 3 JL's to 1 Starboard

Really nice looking board Wendy. How do you rate it as a "dancing board". I'd love to demo a JL one day. The Ghostie looks good but it's a bit difficult to see the actual technique used, being so far away. Really looking forward to the water feature, blind man and donkey.

Keep the photos and dances coming.
