I remember that board Trev.
I love guns. Crazy (for here) big guns not a 6'6" with a pulled in tail type guns.
Thing about them is they can be surfed more often than most think.
Especially this one as it has thickness right through nose and tail.
Just have to put up with stupid comments from people.
I was surfing Broken head this past week and when it was only 2' on Wed but with fast hollow walls the above gun would have been a blast.
When I paddled out there was only 4 longboarders out.
But in no time at all there was 25+ as the Pass hipsters must have all texted each other.
However, the waves speed was beating most.
I borrowed a 7'6" X 23" X 3 &1/4" 7T (short board nose/swallow tail) board from Michael Cundith to ride when it was small and was having a ball pumping down the line for speed and then stalling into little tubes that I had to fold my body into.
I've ridden a 9' Michael Cundith gun which was made to surf Sunset out at the Pass when it's been 2-3' low tide and hollow and it was great fun paddling past all the longboarders in the rip which was running like a set of rapids.
Hands down the fastest paddling board I've ever been on.
The Cadillac feel of a big board like this on small waves is something most will never know. A different feel from longboards.
I reckon I'll have fun out the Bluff on this too.
