where abouts r u at the moment? lombok?

One California Day is a very nice film if you are after something different, yeah there's some longboarding in there, but what the hell, it's a nice concept and the editing and quality is top notch, so much so that even the second DVD with the out-takes makes bloody good viewing on it's own (especi...

Shapes- top notch
Glasswork and sprays, good to top notch
Foam quality and machine cut quality, questionable.

can you elaborate a bit more there monkey>

interesting nc... but please enlighten me in the way i digested your post. either kelly has taken the time off to get over a few injuries he has (thinking ankle here) or he is staying away from g-land because the waves might spoil his prep for j-bay... tho dont ask me how a quality lefthander can sp...

caveman is on the money.... for small shitty stuff, you want something more flat etc.... i would go a quad. i had a hynd twinny, and now have a CI biscuit, and i have to say the biscuit is way more fun. doesnt mean tho i havent had good surfs on the twinny. its just that the biscuit is more versatil...

The ASP World Tour website does little to help the situation either. Sack the bozos in charge of that for starters... :roll: actually that is true... that website does suk donkeys nuts. does not get your keen on the tour at all. reminds me more of a a business website (which i guess it is in a way)...

i really liked the jbay comp last year... that and pipe i thought were the best... this year has been a letdown so far, basically due to bad surf (imho) in regards to the comps being boring, i dont see how they could make it better...? unless its really pumping there is just long lulls between sets ...

reading a few websites recently, they rekon that the tour is still for the taking... but with the massive break they have had, and the change in format coming really soon (after jbay?) i was trying to think who in the aussies was really standing out... id still really like parko to re-engergize hims...

be interesting to see if it sells for that much....

what is the upper price u would pay for board

whats the question i guess....

i think i was just really curious about the banksy boards basically because the guy sounds like a surfing legend... ie, he really sounds like he knows his stuff, and is into more the quality over quantity kinda thing...

would love to try one....

but man, $1000 buks...

i thought fanning was all quickness and agility....?

machado and slater both have perfect physiques for surfing. machado's a natural beanpole and slater's body type suits all waves. as was tom curren. let's face it, occy's barge arse never leant itself to anything other than power surfing, gotta put those glutes to use somehow. yeah good point. does ...

yeah not meaning to turn this thread into a machado thread... but i like effortless style... hence appreciating the form of parko and machado...

each to their own tho...

afternoon all... i was listening to that down the line podcast here at work. which i find is excellent to have playing in the background while i plod away away.... anyway, they had some great interviews ive listened to recently, rob machado, taylor knox a few others.... taylor was talking about how ...

ive used oneils for years...

would like to try to patagonia tho....

gents, anyone ridden any of jim banks sufboards...? from the website: http://www.jimbanksurf.com/hyper.html Hyper This is a fast response, easy turning, high speed, high performance surfboard. If you want to push the performance limits of your surfing or just enjoy a board that makes everything easy...

thanks nick. appreciate the info... interesting actually. considering he got a lot of inspiration from tow boards, and surfing vicco breaks, i wonder how his boards would fare in normal sydney surf.... the metro board board seems really interesting... id love to see how that would go around here... ...
