im gonna concentrate on little eggs for tiny grommets after this shorty im making mark, just to see the stoke its giving my little boy as it comes together is pay enough for me for a while. After chrissy will look at other stuff, a dim sim is on the cards for sure one day, but if you knew how many years i pondered over getting a quad, in fact I think I told you, if you could see inside my head you would come out a very confused man :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Im glad marcus likes it, the dim sim is so enjoyable and brings about a different feeling on a wave and certianly has its place in any persons quiver, up here I think its almost a must, mmmmm, im almost talking myself into it arent I :shock: :lol:
no, Im not a surfer, Im just a garbage man".

Any chance it will make it down to the border by the 9th?
I have a week off work and we are going camping down the coast.

Cheers,
Scot

got the board back today, Sharon loved it, she said it was alot of fun, she ordered one exactly the same, I was told not to change a thing so I guess she really enjoyed it.....another young Sunny Coaster, Jake Goold rode and he too said it was alot of fun, so all good for the dim-SIM...
its now time for it to head off, who is keen ? I am going to the Goldy this week, prob Thursday or Friday, so if any goldy crew are keen , let me know, maybe you are keen Scott ? then it'll be heading further south, with a pit stop with Shearer along the way.... 8)

While you were OS I dropped in to Da Bomb and I didn't even know Sharon had the board.
She soon let me know how astounded by it she was.
She literally couldn't stop talking about it.
I managed to steer her off talking about the dim sim a couple of times to talk about what I came in for but she doggedly kept on interjecting with more about the dim sim.
Talk about frothing grommet that's actually middle aged and a longboarder to boot.
The really telling thing is that I've seen her out on a Quadfather lately and all she wanted to talk about was the dim sim.
She has a shop full of boards with plenty of fish planshaped boards too.
Now that's stoke. :wink:
Pure gold for a shaper.

Is it due to head south for the Vicco winter?
