Re: ALAIA

"jump on the bandwagon" - this is the call i hear all the time when i start trying to tell people about alaia's and how much freakin fun they are. say whatever you want, when you actually ride one of these things and go faster than you've ever been before on a wave, you will be so freakishly stoked...

Re: Bali

Oh i should mention - dont get so hung up over a few bucks. Sure you might be paying $3 more than the other guys offers, but they need the money more than we do a lot of the time. Make sure you go out to airport lefts and kuta reef for a laugh: Europeans wearing full steamers to protect themselves f...

Re: Bali

i stayed with a balinese family in bingin (albeit in a westerner owned place), but you can get places for $4 a night on the reef down there, its mental. I liked bingin and padang a whole lot more than Ulus which i thought was overrated (blasphemy, i know)....maybe i didnt get it that good but the ot...

Re: Small Wave Boards

I thought it through and i am edging toward a modified shortboard, for small waves. Low rocker and concave, wider in the tail, a bit shorter. That way i can surf it in comps and still have a ball on a board that suits the conditions. After all, fishes are traditionally made for long waves like malib...

Small Wave Boards

Hey guys, I just wanted to get your opinions on a small wave board choice. It will be custom, and i still have to talk to mitch about the board, but i just wanted to run some ideas and get some more. Would a fish type shape work? Sortof full nose, quad fin but with a "modern" outline??? Like a fish ...

Does he still surf in the WCT? I thought he took his bat and ball and went home mid-season when he realised he could no longer win the World Title.
He said he was taking the rest of the season off and maybe competing next year..

"Hey"

Has the word "hey" at the end of each sentence become a fashion?
I have noticed a bunch of people saying it a lot, NC and xander are some examples on realsurf. Not at all a criticism, i seem to do it sometimes.

It sortof reminds me of when people used to say "but" at the end of each sentence....

I always jump on my singlefin though, and always keen for a bodybash.
Without a leggy it's part of surfing...
