Didn’t see that - thanks.
What a stonker, but probably a bit big for Steve so he might need to sell it to a bigger unit.

Hint.

Never seen one when surfing my yellow boards in Lennox/Ballina over the last 5 years.

All my sightings have been on whiteish boards

Interesting vid of summer of 69 boards being ridden and compared.

Geez, that is a cracker Steve. I'd love to get something like that. Am still very much in love with my Russ Short - great board. Not quite a midlength at 6'2, but for a short-arse, it feels like a super long rail.

I thought I was over midlengths and have just surfed mine twice in succession and had a blast.
