Re: Just general surfing stuff

Go cork, loof.


That was bait for Iggy.
It does work though.

The one you have left after you hit a shallow reef, that is.

Re: Just general surfing stuff

Only when you're at the cabin, and it's a drive. You're safe.

My point was the one Iggy made - all removable fins are supposed to snap or come out to avoid greater damage to the board.
So stop stressing about it and use it. Especially as they were almost free.

Re: Just general surfing stuff

Isn't the fin being knocked out or snapping off one of the main points of FCS?

Re: General snow stuff

I'm planning on doing more back country this season. And I'd like to get to Taos or Big Sky.
Family stuff is chewing up my leave though.

Re: General snow stuff

Yeah I know, but I stand by my statement.

Mammoth opened last week, actually slightly later than normal. But they'd only been closed for 2 months.

Re: General snow stuff

Europe always looks bony even when they have a good season.

That spine to skier's left of the lift looks fun.

One day Cranked is going to just flip out and go down a Wikipedia rabbit hole for about 56 hours straight.

There's not a massive difference between yammie and technobutter or whatever the top of the line RC stuff is called.

If you need to save some coin for future art purchases, I'd jump on that deal.

Re: Where did you surf today ?

Surfed Chuns this morning, most other places on the north shore weren't working. Sunset actually looked fun but I didn't get there until just before my work started.

Re: Where did you surf today ?

I surfed Steamer Lane on dusk yesterday. Felt very edible with the oily-smooth water, kelp, seals and fading light. The swell was 2ft and weak but I had a window in an otherwise fairly shitful week and I surfed my new Christenson 7'6" single. Really nice feel to it, it definitely rewards clean lines...

Re: Just general surfing stuff

The Christenson fins are a wank, but those and the Aipa volan ones often go on deep specials here for less than the Greenough etc in similar templates.

Re: Fish

It's got the same rocker as the Nautilus which you didn't like.
