Because you married a centipede Gboots?

Tardy you crack me up - do tell what board did you order, or do we have to wait for the photo's when it arrives?

Just an update on the 10'6 StyleXL.
Taken it out twice now in the surf.
First surf blown out sloppy knee high garbage. Board was quite hard to stay upright on as there was some cross swells coming through. Got A few waves and I could definitely tell this board was chalk and cheese compared to my 11'2 ECS board. Once you pick a line it has incredible speed and I could tell it was agile enough to turn on a dime.

Day 2: clean glassy 2-3 ft. Spent a lot more time standing upright today and had an absolute ball. Was probly a 3 hr session. Wow what a board.

Picks up waves very easily and had me doing sharp bottom turns and some nice carves at the top of the wave. Since I don't have my hexatraction yet I can't comment on the nose riding ability. Also Very stable paddling out through waves as well as the big round nose just seems to get above the foam and lift you over the wave. To say I'm stoaked is an understatement. Can't wait to get back out tomorrow morning.
