Just sold a board on gumtree to a 20 something guy. He was giving me unnessary assurances he knew his stuff. Cool as long as he has the green I don't care. I rocked up to do the deal and he was clearly embarrassed he was buying a short board from a bloke who would be in his Dads age bracket.
Lovely quick transaction.

Warning: brand new Rip Curl Aggrolite chest zip long armed springy. Busted zipper. Return to Rip Curl. Nightmare.
Not sure if it's a common issue. Just a heads up.

Back zip?

Re: Just general surfing stuff
His post says chest zip.
Or are you suggesting a back zip wouldn't fail.if so, I'm with you on that.
If you can't reach around () and pull up a back zip, you shouldn't be surfing.

I still don't buy the "official" narrative about 9/11. Oh sure, it happened, fcuk yeah. But who and why and how I'm, not convinced it was what we've been told.

I got a 7'6"DS, probably going to get a smaller one before the winter is out.

Re: Just general surfing stuff
Depends where you are and what waves you ride....but after seeing the wave of the day on Swellnet today I'm thinking of taking a shrunken down DS to the Ments.
Would hate to see a wave like that reel off because you couldn't get into the bloody thing.

Re: Just general surfing stuff
christ! I have a suit just waiting for you shearer
Re: Just general surfing stuff
Steve. Aside from the extra edge with paddling, Wouldn’t the DS be a little too full volumed for the ments? Overall, theyre not slab waves where you need to get in early as possible, nor are they deep water bombie type waves that you’ve gotta hunt down over open water.
Wouldn’t a finer outline and rail with less overall foam work better? A fine scalpel feel as opposed to a board that will sit more out of the water ?

I've seen a few guys getting into and out of them.
All I can say is, why?
