RealSurf Surfers' Forum

My missus made the whole family try it for her birthday, on the local Lagoon. She loved it. The next weekend I was driving up to QLD to pick up some second hand boards. Lovin' it. Haven't taken it out to the surf yet, just the Lagoon and the Haven. I come away thinking I've done no exercise but I've...

Found the same thing on an 8'2 Epoxy McCoy. It's a boat, nearly a SUP and it need a few extra strokes to get it into waves early. The poly boards didn't have the problem, like the extra buoyancy was a drag. On the other hand, rode a 9'4 Nat Young Bic, and I loved it. I've heard the Billy Tolhurst Ep...

Arrived in the mail today, quality bit of gear.

10 years ago I bought a Mal cover from a mob in Byron,I balked at the price. It's lasted 3 times as long as any other board bag I've ever owned cos of those YKK zippers. Well worth the entry price, and saved me money in the long run.

Hey mate, how much for postage to Central Coast?

Nick, How often do you pull out a board and ride it for how it feels, rather than purely for it's performance ? - say an old school Mal. I often look at designs and wonder how it would feel on certain waves, then I'll pursue that for 6 months - even chasing waves that suit that design, but I guess b...

I know where this one is going ^^ (not for me )... Can't wait to see grain come out on that bottom.

How hard is it to get a quartet these days? Hasn't purcho buggered off to Bali?

CCMB + BBQ + Avoca = MTM

Yeah, I'd like to give one of these a try, I've seen quite a few popping around the place. Hey Wanderer, Adam from Imprint ( http://imprintsurfboards.tumblr.com/hull ) might be coming along to the next CCMB club day. He's been making hulls and I had a go of one last month. Needs a different approac...

I've seen these boards and they look the goods.

Price is right too.

Magic Seaweed use the Seppo scale too.

Crustt, not exactly the Aloha spirit, but that's gold..... Do you mean the not there comment, well if I was coming toward him unless I was going to run over him I would not know he was there, I have tunnel vision when I surf. If he was sitting out around the take off zone and I was getting a heap o...

Brilliant. Joy on film.

Succinct.

IB is definitely having a good time.... Now, serious question. On such a back foot design, why, why would you ride a longer board, especially on those offshore days? If you're foot is firmly planted over the fins, then even a big guy would have trouble using ALL that rail on say a 7'6. It would have...

Dave, I'm lovin' the look of those cork topped McBeans!! Lovely work

It's all good Damo - Sounds like you're having fun on that 7'0 surftech. If I snap / destroy or just wear out that Zot then I'll get a board designed as a quad from the ground up, probably an NPJ Quartet.
