it would make more sense if you called it a bodyboard.

do they even make 7-7s anymore? also you can add shortboard vs longboard to that poll. since many surfers ride one or the other pretty much exclusively.

As of late Ive been sponging but have surfed much more of my life. Doesn't really matter as Chuck said. Around these parts it seems to be better for sponging but whatever the swell merits I will be doing. Any of you guys who diss a sponger I would like to bet I can get deeper than you standing or prone!

Saaawweeeeeet!
I have had some crazy experiences with the kamikaze Brazilian BB'ers in Puerto Escondido. I was taking off what I thought was deep, however, these guys were still 30 meters deeper than I...but then I realized they weren't standing up.
Nonetheless, top to bottom and over the falls at that spot it doesn't matter which type of ship one rides!

I paddle out to ride waves - doesn't matter shortboard-longboard-bodyboard-bodysurf I'll do what the conditions merit just as long as I'm on a wave

same here, especially around here, because most of the time it isnt too easy to fit inside a barrell on a surfboard

I agree. I usually bodyboard or ride my kneeboard, but for the summer I have a longboard to mess around with.

Kneeboarding is really fun on chest to head high waves. I've been doing more of that lately.
