I have not been in there for a while

yeh boof,my next board will be goddard. be good to see youdown at the bay mate

bigspaz mate,we got pup over from WA so a few of us QLD boys are going to cruise the hood down there. go say hi to Bob,have a feed and meet up with you big spazz

Yes Bob really enjoys shaping unique boards,I was told he his spending a few days each week shaping unique boards.

Hey Bigspazz you would know a local who makes his own boards met him last trip,very tall unit drive a white van always surfing the pass.

That's him how could I forget his nameNice guy was surfing and he was catching everything on a day when I was on the wrong gear and he paddled in,just after me.I approached him in the carpark with, hey mate nice board then straight up,how heavy are youHe showed my his other boards he had in the car gave my a card and did the intro to his girl.

Not quite but I remember I was shocked as in I was thinking he was way heavier than he mentioned.115 or 120 and I was blown away he was riding a 908 x 22 3/4 x 3 or something very close.

Big tall bugger and not a shinny weed.

He has a nice relaxed style but for a 20 foot man oh my he is talented,one thing I've found is don't be scared to rock up and have a chat with the locals,it all changes the vibe and they really do let you have a few once the ice is broken.

Boofy is that fin from fluid foils or similar or is it a one off?

Not sure mate, just had a quick look its got no sticker or markings I can find out for you when my mate gets back if you like
Boof

Yeah, thinking it might suit a very wide tailed model t

Be good if you could boofy.

Thanks

It's open to discussion any suggestions?

I have a few that have been in it,
I had a hatchet that I broke, it was about 10 inch.
Currently it has a10 inch fluid foils fat boy fin in it,this is actually the fin the guy gave me when I bought it, it seems to work with the area down low but needs more I think.

I also have a 12 inch takayama copy dolphin type fin that I used for a while.

But that's why I asked what it was, just looked kinda like a similar tail.

And the reason for no fin in the pic was I have to take it out to get in my car

Sorry to hear you had back surgery, hope you heal quickly.

I think the 10 inch hatchet is the fin for that board. Or one of these

Yeah the.back is going alright and should be surfing in a few months. I spoke to Rabbidge today about big boards after looking at Big spazzs board on another thread he said no dramas. Riding these in small waves would be a good way to get back into it. Jumping to my feet quick will be the test.
Here's a log fin

Ui

I been thinking that as well Mac. I live near a beach with a very gently sloping bottom and a south swell magnate. When it's small it peels nicely and there's usually banks and its a 50 meter walk to your car so an 11 footer would be ideal.I have a 10 and might get an 11 I'm around 95 kilos or a touch more .
