mac , you don't need another board for lm. 5 is enough to surf that place.

if you said I need a speedster hp long board to surf 3,4,5,6 foot wide snapper or wide kirra I would be right behind you.

but you are surfing 1 and 1/2 to 2 ft little lm. that's fact . 5 boards you have is enough for that. you have pretty much the entire range of mct to suit that already.


if you absolutely must at least try another brand

But really, it depends as much on the wave shape. If the wave is small and steep/round your actually better off shorter, tapered nose and tail, thick for volume under chest as a big board is just hard to fit in the wave.

If it's a fat small wave go a long glider...

That's my feeling anyways.

Get yourself a nice 9,1 with a pulled in tail, still a longboard still get on the nose but a bit more fun for faster days

Just follow your gut feeling mate.

You are in the position to have a few boards that are 'same same but different'.

I find my 11'8 Glider is the section connector from heaven being narrower and longer with an insane step up speed kick in the pocket and being a totally different sensation to the 66 (dimensions above) which is stable table, ripple rider and cruiser.

They both work however the only similarity is that they ride waves....very differently to each other.

Why not like a big 8' Sumo or Rincon Mac? Surely you have an inkling to go a bit shorter? I'm sure you'd do well on one.

Dear mac. Would you mind explaining to everyone in the greenroom just what is your 'thing '

We would all appreciate a well documented account.

I know i have no idea what your 'thing' is.

Thankyou
