Re: Templates & Rules - Stolen from another forum!
Can I suggest a template.. It’s a forum, SDC, not a quorum... you can suggest all you want, but don’t hold your breath. Fair enough.. I guess this forum doesn't get much traffic.. and most of the people on this forum know how to put a sentence or two together.. and don't talk in sms / text talk. (D...

Carrying a Longboard - Distance between Roof Racks?
I am currently looking at buying a smaller car.. but smaller cars have limitations.. such as not being very suitable for carrying longboards. Therefore I will have to carry my boards on the roof. I have checked out the Thule website, and the car I am looking at has to have the roof racks at about 75...

Another vote on the Powerglide
I am about 90kg and have a 7'0" Powerglide.. I've only had 2 surfs on it, but with a bit of practice, I reckon I could pull a cheaky 5 on it.

Re: O'Neill Warranty, Repairs and Service
[quote="petulance"] Does anyone have any experience with O'Neill warranties and repairs? I had a look at their website and they do not mention that rips through regular wear and tear are not covered by their warranty. [/quote] They are nothing less than fantastic!!! I bought a steamer from the US.. ...

Thanks for the info guys! However, I have ordered a board from Grant Miller. I will get another year of experience under my belt before looking at something like this.. but in a smaller size than a 7'2". From what I have heard and read, it appears as though once you make a board too big - it loses a...

Just had a read of your original post SDA, and my experience for summer junk is that you really need three fins for the junk, the extra squirt will get as much power as possible out of the minmal sections of power you are presented with. Thanks for you replies everyone! So would I be on the right t...

I have contacted MR about a twin.. but I haven't heard back from him. What modern single fin would you suggest?

As the subject suggests.. I am looking for an alternative to a fish. I have a Walden Magic Fish which isn't working for me.. not sure if the board is a pig or I just don't know how to properly ride a fish!? Anyway.. I am considering the following boards: -McTavish Egg -McTavish Scooter -Southcoast S...
