Had one on my first board, a hayward thruster from 1986. I was foolish enough to earn on a short board. I have never used one since. When I was learning I was a knee dragging fool and that thing...
Charging too much for wax is like selling spoons at an ice cream shop. They at least know the only use for the stuff is it's intended purpose. Overcharging would get you a Wings/Eagles beach-ware...
How about needle sharp noses on shortboards? I got a nice scar to prove it was lame for me. Needed those lame silicone nose condoms to keep from having a lawn dart moment...
New York surfer.... This is what is known as paying your dues through verbal hazing... Relax and Remember surfing was born from innovative thinking. Add the fact that no two waves are ever the...
I bought a skill100 from Wavecraft and it is a wonderful machine... He knows how to set them up right ...I have seen some other skil 100's and can only imagine what it would take to get them going...

Let's pick this thread back up with some pictures of the swell when it arrives. So when the waves are gone, we have something to look at instead of quiver threads.
I have a stringer-less Christensen Ocean Racer that looks a lot like this one. Has the Volan deck patch too. At 5'9" and I weigh 190 I wasn't sure how well it would do for me, but was unreal in...
Alot of beaches have a 42" or so max on body boards. But I think some either just dont know or care. It would be funny to see the surf patrol with a tape measure:rolleyes:
