hey goatie, do you think fins could be a factor? bigger would drive the board through those disjointed sections i'm thinking, smooth things out a bit
Lacey, I reckon the biggest factor is Beau's go for it attitude, he just pushs through everything. The wide noses on both boards help with stabilty in the chop and whitewater. The fines were regular size I think.
Watch footage of Jackson on the McT, he pushes hard through all his turns as well.
the reason i asking our thoughts is it takes me back to a riverea 8'11 gerry lopez that i had early in the piece
its wasn't light and i did have it finned up. the nose on the board was say medium shaped. the board would go on for ever - use to pull around some huge sessions and blast through crappy bits. it took a bit to set moves up, but it would do it.
of coarse moved on to customs blah blah blah, but sometimes i used to miss it
cheers
ps are we gonna see you sydney crew are on the goldie in the future.
promise we'll put on some good waves
