So is this yr new stick then? It looks like its "yellowed" a lot already - no wonder you do not want day light savings

Looks good mate - still don't like your choice of BBQ though

Clean as a whistle that planshape.

8' x 21 1/2 x 2 3/4. single to double to v- standard issue


good question ted.i'm hoping then the points are half decent, a bit of shape i can ride it instead of the hotlog. but don't get me wrong i love the hotlog.



then all the way up to 4,5, 6 plus- well maybe, point breaks. its good to have the paddle power because once the surf up hear gets bigger the rips kick in.

it should surf that stuff no problems

Looks so.so nice... Making me think I have had mine underdone. Similar planshape, except I left the training wheels off mine





Can always put them on later
Oh how many litres did that come in at? Not that litres make a difference according to some

Funny,I was thinking the same thing last night. I just really enjoyed the time I had spent on the single...am hoping we can get more waves that will suit it. I'm pretty jealous atm

I'd hit it as a single fin with a 10" rake with plenty of flex, snap that baby out of your turns...

So if its this big it should handle it then

Incredible footage from Puerto Escondido - Shane Dorian paddling into a bloody good contender for wave of the year.
