Hey Guys, couldn't resist this one! What a shot!
Come on boys! If you have some good shots - lets see em!
Any of Kai Lenny or the other crew at Sunset?
PROJECTION
If the was the sunset comp he had a huge gash in his foot from pipe. Hate that as on one foot he still makes me look like a kook.
Nice shot
note paddle not in water no wimpy paddle turns for the boy 
Great screensaver right there thanks AA;
How's Ikaika's style ay, he seems to pull off the impossible with a freak-kine of grace & nonchalance
so lovin that top shot
you can nearly see him gritting his his teeth
any sequence shots after that shot of him
eg. blowing it or blowing up
nice
Yeah, finishing instyle with a few buckets thrown in-
Interesting that IK is still smashing it on the old 9'3 Ripper!
This is the only difference-
blowin up it is .................lol......................
just saw that sequence on the net 5 mins ago
nice
Scotty Quads are the go big time you know it
Some buckets throwen right there for sure, must be one of the best pics I seen for a long time on a sub 
Sweet shot AA, the old 9'3" Ripper is a 'ripper' of a board! The rider ain't too shabby either
Yeah it is a killer shot. One of the best I have seen in a long time.
Blows me away that he is still on the production 9'3 molded quad.
Raises the rocker line issue as well. I mean he drops pipe backhand on that board!
Is it a skill thing where he trades rocker for drive to project away from the wave when required? I watched Loco's ride a board with a lot of rocker a few weeks back (6' palmy)and he just got mowed down by the wave - he just couldnt escape it as the rocker just slowed him up. I know Blane has changed the rocker line on all the new boards, but we all know the 9'3 so well and IK is still smashing it on that thing!!
Hey AA,
The 9'3 is a killer board in the right hands no doubt and it suits a certain style of surfing and a certain wave.
IK, Bonga, Slater Trout, Matt Lumley, Jako and others can smash it on just about any board.
I think it comes down to having the break wired in the first place especially with pipe (local knowledge) and the skill ability and confidence that you can make it in the second place.
The board just dictates how you will take it on!
Phill.
The PSH moulded board rocker seems to work better in bigger waves. Small steep waves tend to expose the lack of nose rocker. My Mano is much easier to go top to bottom as it has heaps of nose rocker. Still prefer the PSH on anything with a bit of size about it. My two cents rocker is personal taste.
