great boards had a few, rock solid in the juice. if you can afford it, buy one.

davros, i got a custom from john at chaos last year. fkg awesome board. i'll get another this year. i went in to basically get a more refined version of another board i've got, he threw some other ideas into the discussion, and holy cow ! i got this gem that is tuned to my peculiarities. i have orde...

why would you think of getting a getting a 2+1? seems odd. Is it that your 6'8 is a 2+1?, or do you want to develop a more refined bottom turn? or did you ride a mal that was a 2+1? sounds to me like you really want is a board that has the right volume but is still pretty forgiving. just ring rabbid...

I have seen Tony Abbott in the surf a few times at North Steyne and generally ignored him. But now he has risen to the rank of leader of the Coalition of the Unwilling I feel an overwhelming obligation, as all Australians should, to burn him at every available opportunity.

did old grom or rockin get a single fin? do they now surf with more style?

where do mick mackie, mitchell, mcewen, mctavish, and mccoy fit in?

check this from the burleigh single fin classic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RO4ObU9n1jo&feature=related i am reliably informed that those guys you see in the vid were all really really average surfers when riding their thrusters, but on their 1980's single fins it must be admitted that they look...

may choc have mercy on you all.

no doubt a single fin is good for reminding you how to draw a proper bottom turn. do you need to be reminded how to do a bottom turn? the single fin rewards the good bottom turn and the fade. old grom sounds like he is going to make the leap. for sure he'll enjoy it for novelty value, and if you are...

don't do it. don't you remember when you got your first thruster? didn't you think "bejesus, I'll never ride another single fin again"? why do it now?
