RealSurf Surfers' Forum

Got it - 5'9, 19 1/2, 2 1/4 - egg. It's really refined, with HP rails and a pulled in nose and tail. Have surfed it about five times. Great allrounder. Really gelled with it from the first surf, which i don't often do with bonzers. Shoulder recovery is slow, so i can only surf once to twice a week,...

Different times I guess, let us know how u go on the Howard mini. I have fondled a few in Byron & almost pulled the trigger a couple of times.

Maybe he meant small pipeline lol!

I like the look of the Russ Short but yes, it’s a good wave board

I think it’s the “Bodega Boardriders” podcast which has a good interview with Devon Howard talking eggs. Well worth a listen

Anyone order a bonzer from Malcolm when he was out a couple of months ago? What did u get? Have u got ya grubby lil hands on it yet?

Yeh, I'd say this 7ft Mini has a bit more performance than the other model. It's designed for decent surf. But you never know. McCoys. Well. McCoys. One day I'll try one and probably love it. If you enjoy the thin bitey rails, then no, you probably won’t enjoy the McCoy! What fins are you using in ...

I have my 7'er being fitted with a centre fin box as we speak. A 5 fin, but I never use the fcs centre fin box, so a 10"er is going in. I will definately use side bites if I think it'll improve the board. Fluk joel Tudor ! Ps I will not say that to his face :) Try some fcs bonzer side bites, even i...

As I live in Queensland perhaps I should just toughen up & wear a wooly jumper like back in the day TRHS footy jersey worked well. Holy crap Trev, are u 80 years old or something? 80 & still surfing, that’s awesome 70 next week. Our sports master wanted to know why my footy jersey was so faded towa...

i'm getting one done from Malcolm in the next few weeks - $1050.

To be fair though Batoes. Your choice of purveyors of surf equipment has been lacking in the past so let’s just wait and see huh? I hear that the Dead Kooks do a nice bonzer.

Ouch! Best thread ever tho.....

My needessentials has got a massive hole in the armpit. Have had it since August but started wearing it in October or so. If it wasn't for that, i would have been impressed. Fit was great; very soft, stretchy etc. I will try to repair, but i don't think i will buy again. Shame. Oh...... I was gonna...

From my reading I think you ride the odd McCoy. So you're talking about your other boards when turning right? :

I'm just gonna copy this to the McCoy riders web site. Your life won't be worth living now.

Please don't.

You ll be ok mate, geriatrics don't know how to use smart phones.

Good on ya beery, I remember when you first got that board and posted the photos. It looks amazing. Keel fish go great in points so do bonzers and one of my best cutbacks ever was at a 3ft beachie on a single fin. Fins are important but really it's about good you feel or as you get older how creaky ...

From my reading I think you ride the odd McCoy. So you're talking about your other boards when turning right? :) Jokes Oh f$&k! Lookout, here come the McCoy zealots. Train wreck impending. Are fins the most important part of a good/great cutback board? I think rails play an important role myself

Please do Jimmy

"Satan McBeezlebub"...... great name for a surfboard model, I can see one under the feet of Ozzy Wright

10ft is the new 8ft.....& you can use them as a "glider" in 1ft peelers
