Pics not great on my phone. Is that a pic of the board before it was glassed?

Never mind, can see no fin plugs

Found my old one board quiver stashed from ~15-18 years ago. Was gonna ride it but a couple of the fin boxes were bulging. Looked pretty good otherwise.

I do not miss the days of boards measuring 18” wide and 2 1/4” thick.

I was watching a vid which included JJF waxing his board before going out at Pipe. I noted that he waxed his tail pad.

John John could wax his balls for all I care ... he's an amazing surfer, but I'm still not buying any of his expensive board-shorts.

If I was about to surf Pipe, I’d wax my butthole if I thought it would help.

Picked this up.
Nose and tail are so thin!
Looking forward to surfing the point on it at 4-5foot.

Those channels as deep as they look?

It’s going to fly.
So I surfed it yesterday eve in drivey sand bottom point waves and fly it did.
But I surfed it like a complete kook. I don’t think it’s a great board tbh. I’ve had al Byrne deep 6s before that could surf easily in anything.

Well if I’m a better surfer than I am a bloke, I’m sorry to say I must be a bit of a cnut.

The chilli down the end too small for you now?
Anyway, nice quiv.

I’ve got more boards in the rack but I’m surfing about 4 at the moment.
5’9 emery Hazfish 75% of the time
5’11 JS xero grav 20%
6’1 Js golden child 2.5%
7’1 Gunther step up 2.5%

Says more about the waves I’m surfing than the boards.
