What does bulbous mean in regards to a surfboard?

Too much foam in the wrong places. It's like riding a ballon. No bite.

If it doesn't work well as a quad, sell it while it still looks good.

Just had a look.
Looks like a hypto crypto?

I think you're right buddy.

Geez I’m glad I went with the mayhem.

Yep

Bust the fcuking door in. If one of my "mates" stole my board and wouldn't give it back I reckon I'd easily be able to justify busting up a lock. Or if I wasn't willing to, dob them in to the cops and get them to get it back.

Jesus, I don't call the cops on my oldest friend over a borrowed board. I'll get it back in due course.

very far from brand new when he got to it.

it's all good mate, Bribie boys work as a team, we are like aboriginals.

I'll go borrow his brush cutter.

And then lock it in his shed

You're full of shit, Legion. As if you'd simply bust the door. You'd be compelled to go bigger than that. Removing his longest wall with a plasma cutter is getting towards believable

Is that code for fuck his wife.

I wouldn't lend a board to legion with his feet made out of bronze.
Anyone else I wouldn't mind.

Or a , which is both sure-footed yet can still do reasonably tight turns, on its own terms.

Mine is gone.

my mate came and took it and now I can't get it back

Do you surf the protow in the same conditions you surfed the ghost?

pretty much , but it's a better paddler and the longer rail line feels better in long lined Point surf.

Ghost knifes into late hollow drops better.

What size did you get?

36l

I have a 5’11” of that recent protow re-jig

It goes up the face a bit better than I suspect a ghost type thing would, but doesn’t let you into a past vertical drop all that well, I feel like that is a deep concave thing — they sorta hang up for a split second at low speeds, maybe because the curve drags till it doesn’t.

But otherwise feels like a relaxed version of the superconcave, everything smooth, fairly graceful and even traditional in a way, and a wonderful tube rider, be great to take to Indonesia

Crabmeat's got your board?

I think I'm going to bust the fins out of the bottom of two boards. One has cracks around the heel fin, one has cracks around the centre. Never hit anything. Maybe weed. Maybe my bronze feet are pushing them through the tail.

Pics? The Realsurf braintrust will get you sorted.

I think BA and Thud need to take the blame for the East Coast flat spell. They bought new surfboards and it goes flat.

You two have a lot to answer for.
