The perfect tub board?

I guess that’s what they want - you to buy big name boards you normally wouldn’t.
Was it standard pu/pe construction?

Looks very similar to the Gash that Iggy delivered to me a few weeks ago.
I’ve been having a blast on it.

I thought he would have signed in to turn his activity status off.

Tons of fun here this morn.
Crowds are spread as there seems to be waves everywhere.

You still rocking a Motorola flip top or something, skip?

Cheers thud!

In the uvva Fred.

Finished product. Plenty of blemishes in the spray and glassing but overall happy with it. I stuck these fins in it from a Larry Mabile twinzer set because I already had them, but I’m hoping to get a black set of fcs2 power twins. https://i.imgur.com/vjcGlmt.jpg https://i.imgur.com/0te7qOI.jpg https...

Mine went amazing in those conditions where the swell seems to stand up on the bank/point but didn’t have heaps of grunt.

You’d be happy to know that this one is flat as, Yule. Flatter than MR’s.
After shaping it I kind of wanted a bit more nose kick but it didn’t seem problematic yesterday.

Sold it. It had heaps of rocker and was very, very loose. I had some great sessions on it but it wasn’t that versatile imo. It started to get a bubble on the deck so I got rid of it while it still had some currency. The red 6’10 one, pictured in the same thread, I have ridden too and is a lot easier...

Took the new twinny out at the point and it goes unreal.
Heaps of fun.
Pretty happy that first self shaped board isn’t a dog.

Only 5 hours sleep last night godsave?

Well it’s been fun lately. Had the last two days off while it was rubbish, then looks epic mon onward for the foreseeable future.
Working 9-3 each day so will get plenty of hours in.

Photos of Wales remind me of westernport bay. You can get a photo of setups that look like perfect little waves, but the reality is slow and boring with long lulls.
Has its moments.

Planning on going in Feb

On another, is this the first time the words "cognitive dissonance" have been used on RS? Impressive!

Ok had a better session today only a bit of smoke and no asthma. The facility itself has a contemporary surf retail vibe. It feels like you're on the beach with people getting ready to go out and coming in, boards lying everywhere and so on - but you're not, you're beside a concrete lined swimming ...
