Recently picked up a surf board for $50 of gum tree, funnest board I kited on go figure.... Anyone else found any hidden gems out there ?
Mmm... where do you start?
Old PU boards are fun, but as they are light but get dinged up quickly been through maybe half a dozen of them
Just got another Vader, probably my 4th one, still one of the best kiting boards around for fun
Also a firewire fish with raked back fins, haven't tried yet but looks the biz
I have 2 P/U's, 2 firewires, 2 kite specific surfboards, and 2 actual paddle surfboards.. it can become a problem...
Old PU boards are so magic to ride There is no denying
Punctuation isn't bad either between sentences.
The hidden gem is punctuation
For an old seadog I'm sure you got more input than that, you custom made this board?, what was your reasons for choosing this outline, bottom contours, rocker ect??
That's a very broad question . My 5'10 FireWire dominator epoxy with quad setup when it's 2 foot and racy . Then when it's a bit bigger an old phantom pu 6 channel swallow tail with glassed in fins that I snapped and round the nose off , that's now around the 5'11 mark.
but on Sunday I had a long downwinder on my 150 mako set up as a mutant with 55 mm fins riding my core xr5 and had an absolute ball.
whatever puts a smile on ya face I reckon
