Re: Kirra Groyne is Being Extended?

No womble, never occurred to them. 15t boulders of sufficient density aren't all that common. Apparently the old ones are in a retaining wall at a former councillor's place. Are these the same said boulders that were purportedly being kept in storage ... simple solution to that then ... take the fc...

Re: Ask Carroll

Don't worry Nick ... I've found the answer here ... ASP says ... Only Fanning can clinch the crown in Portugal. If Fanning wins the event: - Slater will need a 3rd or better to take the title decision to Hawaii. - Smith, Burrow and Parkinson will be out of the race. If Fanning finishes Runner-Up in ...

Re: Ask Carroll

As for the issue of big surf hick ups ... I'm guessing its the "corkiness' thats the problem and not simply fixed by blending some V into the tail or such ... kind of like why they put weights in tow boards. Sorry Womble I can't help myself I gotta say something about the "corkiness" thing. It's a ...

Re: Ask Carroll

Hi Womble, I welcome Nick's expert reply, however just my own take and experience with eps/epoxy is that there is less need for deep concaves as a design example due to how high these boards sit on top of the water. Also I find a finer rail seems to work best. Just in general for me the constructio...

Re: Ask Carroll

Well I actually think eps foam is different enough to polyurethane to require a different approach to design altogether. Just taking out a little bit of volume to make up for the extra float but running with the same design ideas/details as you're using in a PU/PE board isn't the way to go in my op...
