I've owned a few of them and did a few seasons in Roti on a 7'6. It'll go just fine in anything - head to double no problem.

I haven't surfed that much over summer and my reflects are down as you'd expect with age. It's an age and fitness game. A mid length cruise on a crescent head 4ftr sound so much more appealing than a board snapping coral reef. Come Autumn and if the surf hours are up then maybe a juicy wave like La...

Margaret River is 3.5m/4000kJ, good surf all week.

Mrs Cranked is complaining about how much time I spend in Bali so next year it looks like MR up till the end of April and Bali till December

Huh! What!

Oh yeah, I've been on a speaking tour of the SW

Good question. Since you asked: There's two fish and one gunny shape that are in the maybe category. My fishcuit I rode pretty exclusively for a year and a half. Had some great waves on it but it was ultimately frustrating wave count wise. Gun will probably get sold unless I move somewhere where I'...

Will return

steve - there's only so many weeks a man can endure without a pointless argument with a random pensioner about the catastrophic shortcomings of tuflite

Pointless!

How dare you!

Bring back AJ

Thanks for the reference Hatchy. Here's a few excerpts: "TufLite reacts abruptly to any changes in the wave face with no softening of its effects beyond that built into the board's design . It's not a particularly good or bad feeling -- just different. A competent surfer might work with it to gain s...

We know cranked is just trolling because he doesn't even surf sw WA.

I surfed the WA coast (mainly the SW and NW) from when I moved here from Cronulla in 1990 until I retired four years ago, now I just surf the bukit for 6 months a year.

At 9' they have plenty of weight and momentum. I've ridden them in heavy chop in double overhead at MR main break and Yallingup, as have lots of other surfers here in WA. Don't listen to Iggy, he probably hasn't ridden a mal in anything over head high.

A few different options here https://www.thesurfboardwarehouse.com.au/aqss-boulevard-longboard/ Was gonna suggest those guys but thought Coops was taking the piss. This one looks ok too. https://www.thesurfboardwarehouse.com.au/flow-by-beau-young/ He probably is! Its all just bait to expose the clo...

You should be able to get a nearly as new surftech version of the some world's most renowned shapers designs (alive or dead) for around $500-$700

Here's a Yater in WA for $500

I can recommend the Wayne Dean surftech mal



Mine was in perfect condition, I bought and sold it it for $700

Thanks foamy, thats the best analysis of shark behaviour. We're still fcuked though.

What sort of waves and what style?

The water temp felt a tad warmer, mind. Success! Nope, it was pretty cold south of the Gong. On the bright side, I must have caught the most waves of any session that I ever had in Oz. I recall three times when my surfing suddenly took huge leaps forward. Each was proceeded by a long period of frus...

Agree with that beery

No, I'm fine thanks.
