OK I was still undicided the Noserider,sure its a lovely looking log so I started talking myself into another one as mentioned.
So I needed to clear my head so off I went to pay mct a visit,on the way I was trying to be open minded listen for once to whatever
was heading my way
OK sweet GT who I've surfed with heaps was working about 30 mins later Bob rocks in.I was greeted with what do we have here both
looking at my Noserider which I was using as a trade.Its a monster said Bob,GT its a massive beast you don't need a board that big mate.
So GT tells Bob how I surf,Bob asked so your not a traditional type then,GT yells out NO,I reply no,Bob asked what do you want the board for
and to do,I rattled off a reply.Bob said right give me a minute then he appears with a board,here you go this is the trick,its a FB squaretail 908.
I'd trim down the width and thickness from the one he was showing me and he them went on to why this board will be my friend,Bob Likes useing
the term(be your friend) I remember him telling me that about the hatched fin some time ago.9.8 X 23 X 23 1/8 was agreed by all.Bob then said
wow I've got to go,GT then rattles off about the way I sell myself short by going so big on some of the boards,he wrote down my perfect quiver.
Panned out with this FB I've have it
Now I'm a lot clearer and Lance made mention about board length,he has nothing over 9.6 why do we need a bigger board? more volume maybe =
less performance in my book!

So there LL happy now

I've heard about this fella,Theres another guy from Sydney who orders 5 new boards at once all the same art,if one gets damaged he replaces the 5.

I've got nothing,but feel better knowing that life will go on once I really hold back on boards.

I disagree...that morning in tiny snapper surf and i was yelling run to the nose...you killed it. im a bit sad you gave up on it really. I thought the challenge and the fun would have made you try harder to get that dancing part of your trick list

Wasn't the idea to have a board with a flatter rocker that made it easier to paddle onto those smaller waves easier and earlier?

Just my recollection.......
