Epoxy shortboards.
Love them, hate them?
Improved over the last few years?
Never had one but curious.

Again it will raise the question...Rebel/alternative pro tour?

Advice on best spots for competent 12 year olds first Indo/Bali outing?
Peak season usuals or shoulder/off season secrets? Land or boats, don't care.
Perfect 3-4 ft walls. Bit of barrel practice thrown in. Low crowds. I'm asking for the impossible I know. Just suggest the closest thing.

Off for the day again. What's the forecast looking like? Is there something reliable on the way or are they simply crossing their fingers for decent swell?
