Paraletic's or his std X4 models???

Yes have had both....still riding his paraletic atm

very good

Ordered my quad off Muzza but he changed the dimesions that I wanted so its gone from a 6'3 to a 6'2 and from 18 5/8 to 18 3/4 he wanted to go 19 wide but I said no. Said it has to have more girth to create curve in the outline to help it go rail to rail being a quad so Longbum can you not just get...

For the record, I have not been into any of the diamond tails that I have ridden. DH quad was nearly there.....

a question to anyone who can answer it.. the whole focus of talk on quad fins on anywhere always seems to be about fin placement, size, angle, rake, cant etc.. or maybe also a little bit of talk about the tail (bat vs swallow vs diamond vs rounded etc..) but not much is ever mentioned about the boa...

the vast majority of quads im seeing tend to have a very generic outline.. that mostly look like the board rod dahlberg developed for occ many moons ago ... the stubby... just about every shaper has an outline very similar to that in their bag of tricks these days, and to confuse the average consum...

Consider that quote stolen !
I like it.

Hey longbum, just spent the last two weeks surfing snapper, the pass and cabarita point and it was so nice to have some time and wall, even in that short time I felt my surfing got better, marginally, or I just had better surfs I saw your bro out at little snapper pushing his son into a few waves, ...

OK now i will be the first to admit that when it comes to board design im no where near as knowlegable as i should be, i know what size works for me, and a general outline, and i've only come to know what fins work with which boards through trial and error. Now recently in our new place we had a ro...

bit of a myth unless you have good waves all the time imo.........
But the hippies on here will disagree.

Best way to smooth out your style is to go to Indo or somewhere and surf good clean waves consistently.....
Not everyone can do that tho. :?

kiama's answer to the bay, can you tell a couple stories about that, longbum? like who surfed it first and what it's like to surf in your experience and have you seen some memorable rides? there's room for words in this thread after all, alight to mix it up a bit! Good story actually..... Yep, well...
