Re: Help me choose a board
Carvin, you say 28 litres ? Parko weights the same as you (2kgs give or take) and uses the same volume around 28 litres... an intermediate / semi-advanced surfer as you describe yourself could benefit from a 32 or so litre board. Foam is your friend, more waves and ability to move around the lineup ...

Re: that wetsuit discussion...
A good friend of mine bought the Needs 3/2 chest zip and he really likes it. We surfed together and I really liked the no logos, all black look. I also felt the rubber and it looks like the same quality on my Flashbomb, soft, flexible, etc.

Re: Boards with 10 fins
Chris, mate it seems that it is a normal 5 fin set up, the guy just put single tab smaller fins in each plug.

Re: What boards DID you take to Indo?
Good onya mate, Did boat trip Mentawis June 2012, for 12 days. Going again in September this year, hopefully further north, wind / swell depending on a different boat too. Flew with Malaisya to KL and then Air Asia to Padang. Malaisya flies boards fro free, Air Asia charged me $40 bucks. Took wrong ...

Re: HOLY MALE
Enjoy dude, best thing about the reef's in the Maldives is that most of them are fairly flat (compared to Indo / Mentawis), so you get the mechanical reef perfection without the underwater boulders threat :o :o :o I also noticed the waves are a notch or two milder than some indo spots so the fun / c...

Re: Pipe Masters
Narra, I heard on a pre-heat interview that he wanted to test both boards, the other was a 7'2 I think, nothing happened to the 7'6 he was just testing equipment, and BTW what a display of surf, he schooled his competitors with a steep drop into a nice bottom/set up and then an amazing barrel, what ...

Re: Pipe Masters
And the Pipe heritage series: Sunny Garcia, age 44 Tommy Carroll, age 53 Derek Ho, age 50 Gary Elkerton, age 50 Cant wait to see this heat however they should have put another surfer instead of Sunny at age 44, compared to 50+ surfers... in any case I would love to see Carroll do another Snap on 12 ...

Re: Step up boards
G'day mate, I got a step up 6'8 about 6-8 months ago and asked my shaper to include the 5 fin set up, so you can have the best of both worlds. In my experience, the quad works well on my back hand and on faster waves. It seems that for me I can throw my board on my backhand harder than on my front s...

Hi There, is someone shaping your guns or you are just buying off the rack? Your shaper will answer your question no worries.

Re: Puerto Rico and Tybee Island in late Sept
Hi there, the Rincon area is only about 1.5 hrs drive from San Juan so if the swell is up, yeah go for it man, I have been there on 3 occasions and the power of the waves mixed with all sorts of reef break options, is insane. The Rincon area has got so many waves is BS...Renting a car there is very ...
