Re: QuikPro Forey
Parko didn't get an interference against him as Slater didn't 'intentionally' run him over with a slow takeoff.

Re: Help: DHD Double Shot + DHD Sweet Spot ??
stick with the Double shot or anything like it really mate, it'll go well in pretty much all conditions. Even if it's 6ft and steep you'll easily be able to paddle into those waves with that volume. I wouldn't bother with the HPSB or anything like the sweet spot, it's just way too advanced and you'l...

Re: Which FCS?
Hey mate, I'd be interested to see what you think of the Evo, I'm picking one up tomorrow the exact same Dims as yours. I was planning on riding it as a thruster with the Julian Wilson fins (cross between k2.1 and the pc-5's) Maybe a quad might go better in the bigger stuff, just adding a bit more h...

Re: Legropes.
+1 for DaKine, comfortable and durable. Had bad experiences with FCS leggies with the velcro coming unstuck, brand new too.

Re: Board for a beginner
If you progress quickly, you could be on a fish around 6'6 within 3 or so months but you're still better off borrowing/buying around an 8ft mini mal to get the basics down, then just trade it in for another board. I'd be pretty skeptical of a scot surf instructor unless he rips. Just surf every day ...

Re: Board for a beginner
like braithy said mate, any chunky mini mal without too much damage will do it, second hand would be best as you'll most likely be replacing it within 6 months as you progress.
Good luck

Re: Ode to the round-tailed quad.
Great board, Mark shaped me a similar Quadfather at 6'0 19 3/4 2 9/16 over a year ago now and it's still going strong. It's my go to board for basically everything under 6ft in all conditions here in Vicco. The hype on this site was what got me onto his boards and I haven't been let down yet. My MOR...

hey rs'ers, so after attempting to use the search function to find out the lastest opinions on wetsuits around the traps it has proved pretty futile as the word is mentioned in about every post. anyways, i'm looking for a new 4/3 to see me through a few more vicco winters. at the moment i'm using a ...

Bobby Monster - Looks fun
hey, been thinking about this board for a while, not too keen on forking out the $750+ it'll cost just for a PU but was thinking about getting something very similar made up. heres the link - http://www.basesurfboards.com/board_detail/show/id/61 also like the fact you can ride it as a quad or thrust...
