7'11" as well. There's a youngish guy who rides an 8 footer at Bronte a fair bit and goes real well on it.
They've been around for a long time. I got mine after I had soft board he made for a while. It just seemed to fit the wave well. When I got my Carver it was at Manly..Aloha I think. Went for a paddle on a head high peaky day at North Steine. Just felt good from the first wave.

Here’s the link, the writing on the stringer looks like it’s a Tuflite? https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/brighto ... 1209641318

The first Surftechs had a tuflite decal on the deck by the leash plug and the later ones a small surftech 'S' behind the back fin plug. Also the surftechs didn't have a stringer - pretend or otherwise - and the fin plugs were integrated not drilled. The dings look like PU too. I'm saying PU and I'll stake my spotless reputation on it

[godsavethequeen]

Actually maybe some of them did have a pretend stringer

[Cranked]

Same as GSTQ, pretty sure it isn't a Tuflite. They always have the logo and that's a wood stringer, the pretend stringers are just paint lines

I've ridden them a lot, Carvers are great boards IMHO, a 7'7 or 7'11 would suit you well MM

Doesn't look like a tuflite. Pin line and stringer look like PU. My Tolhurst tuflite however has both pin lines and a faux stringer. Looks good.

MM, what I think Cranked is saying is that you might need to go a little easier on the pie floaters before the 7’6” is a feasible option.

I turn 61 tomorrow too Foamy
Nah I still use my 6’ 7” Miller Fish sometimes, so it won’t be too short.

Happy birthday MM you old cnut.

[Beanpole]

Is this a prospective birthday present, The Marauding?

[foamy]

Happy Birthday, MM! I turned 61 late last month.

[Beanpole]

Happy belated birthday, Foamy...and preemptive happy birthday, The Marauding.

[Trev]

Fcuk all you young bastards.
I turn 71 in a couple of weeks.

Getting old is a cnut of a thing. So fcuking inevitable.
