not much these days. Magic board though , I beat it almost to death then paid the best ding fixer in the region to bring it back to life. It'll get more chances.

I've seen surf shops with less stock than that.

You aren’t the room Yuke You are just a wonky cafe table with a missing rubber pad on the end of one leg.

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.

Hope you have them insured and have taken photos of them. You could retire on those fkers.

If there was an unfortunate fire in the Carrolls garage which five would be replaced?

Epic, Nick - you should create a board-riding lotto system. Charge $200 a ticket and let the winner choose a board and go surfing with them for an hour.

Since Nick provided the sublime, I'll provide the ridiculous

9ft2 Bryne longboard (hand shaped Frank Latta 1994). Havent surfed it for 4 years or so, but keeping it until I get older. Should pull it out again but have cannabilised the fins for my other board
7ft4 Miller Powerglide
6'10 Rodgers shaped McCoy Nugget

um, thats it.

The surf ski. Only one in my size I could ride somewhat competently.

Then the flextail, the bonzer and the 6'4" swallow
