Mwaaaa Now i have decided to get a C4 10'6 there are no boards available.. Well here anyway.
What the hell is going on C4
I think I have the itch to go the other way now..... I have a great surfshapes 8'6" and sold my 11'2" starboard. Now I want a bigger board that paddles on flat water and good in larger/ fuller waves. Starboard was good 2/3 but not flash in the larger surf. Any suggestions? I am 92kg and thinking still 10ft and under??
Yep - got the itch
Started on a 10'6 Jimmy Lewis,
Then to a 9"3 Naish
And about to take delivery of a custom 8'6 Laguna Bay.
Spoke to Tully and he customised a board for my weight, type of surf and ability.
Heres hoping my itch doesnt cause problems by going too short !!!! Excited.....
i started thinking about a 3 inch drop then went 8 inches then chickened out and went back to 6 inch . geez time drags on slowly when theres a new board coming . how come boards take so long to make ? i know as soon as it comes there will be a long flat spell .
It the itch that makes the sport progress.[}:)]
a 3 board quiver is sounding good I think that should cover all conditions????
Oh yeah 1st time on the breeze looking forward to august 9 [}:)] spsc016
Thanks Casso, reading the breeze has kept me in touch.
I'm a lone paddler down my way.
Except for one competition in April I've never seen or paddled with anyone.(now you know why I'm looking forward to august 9)
but I knew I had the itch from the first paddle, definately brought back the surf stoke.
The problem with having a quiver of SUP is it makes it difficult to obey the first rule of play:
- Always have all your toys with you all the time because if you don't the one you need is the one at home.
How are you going to lug 3 boards around every time you go away for the weekend?
and make sure your boards are all the same colour so your Financial Controller (wife/GF/BF) thinks you have 1 board
I have been scrathing this lately .I love it and it's so stable it's become my everyday board .For those that don't want to do the sub 9-0 drop this is a great alternative , it's basically a blown up version of Casso's 8-10.
It's a very different board to the PSH 9-3 with a lot more tail area , when you stand on it it feels more like the PSH 9-6 wide ripper but it is much easier to throw around and slide if you under fin it and the board comes off the lip like it's on autopilot.
So I reckon if it's itchy ....scratch it.
