Mabye a beez dick wider, a beez dick shorter and a beez dick thicker. Ride a normal shorty in small waves and...

I must admit to not watching too much competition but I stayed the distance with this video. Not all that impressive apart from some highlights. I agree longboarding is all about style and grace. However, the waves seemed to be pretty slow so I'm prepared to give the benefit of the doubt to the comp...

I feel for you, I have had the same thing, most surfers would have at some stage in their lives but you will have buckleys going to Dept of Fair Trading (ACCC has nothing to do with an issue like this). Yes, they do. And I think that his previous board wasn't a problem would be reasonable evidence ...

JJ, Go back to the store with your story. Explain rationally as you have here, with reference to your previous board's specs. If you get no joy, I'd suggest you read up on the ACCC website on the "fit for purpose" guidelines. Sounds like your product wasn't fit for purpose (ie capable of doing what...

Booger decks are diff material to coolite ones. I know they're different, but they both, like wax, tend to grab at the skin (non slip) and Its that which causes the rash in most people I know. I can see how yours is different, though. Must be a pain. Strange how it only happens in sea water (salt c...

The rash is from the wax, not the boardies. It's why rash shirts were developed. I wear a springie as long as possible in spring/ summer and don't have a problem except just below the bottom of the spring suit leg. When I move into boardies it's not a problem unless they get caught up high while I'm...

I still get the rash, too. Always try to get some boardies which hang down towards my knnes but they keep riding up. And being on a mal, the knees go over the side just where I put my hands when standing up so the wax keeps getting on the rails - thus, wax balls in my hair :cry: Doesn't the vaseline...
