Evan Squirrell is from northcoast. As Mac said they make some awesome boards and have been the Local Takayama Guys for many years. I believe they also do Lopez and some others.
Anyway I have previously bought through a Sydney surf shop but this time went direct.
Evan is on here sometimes and really helpful.

Can't quote LLs original post for some reason so I'll quote yours..

The osprey is a bit more sporty than a c bucket.

Personal option at 2-3 ft I dont reckon a 9ft c bucket would be much more user friendly then a 9ft hp lb.

If you want better paddling and just flatten the nose rocker a touch.
I'd also pull the nose in a bit 17 inch ish as your probably not going to be up the front as much.
Riding LBs in head high waves is more fun than grovelling on them.

Umm. .....
I guess so, it's actually one of his mid length shapes stretched out.
but the mid was originally based of the idea of a Skip Frye model K which can be a glider so...

I guess that would make it a glider if you stretched it back to a glider length?

Lets just call it a surfboard..

Heads up for those interested in the big fish/Fish Simmons genre- 9' Pieter fish for sale on Gumtree. Virtually as new, pale grey/green tint, volan glass, dual timber stringer with high density grey foam stringer. Burgundy pinline. Can be used as a single, quad, 2 plus one or twinnie. I'll box and bubble wrap at my cost for transit. Would cost around $1500 to replicate- if you are on this forum you know the quality of Pieter's work. $750.
