Lol. I can say I've seen a lot of #1 and #8..is also at least one board bobbing out there no matter how early..has been a ton of teens and kids that are really good the sport should be fine in years to come
I like how the first comment is someone whining about how lame the article is then goes on to justify wearing a watch to **** with the working class and how he wears a rashie....
Let me add three more. The nerd This guy is always out there talking about board dimensions and explaining to you how his board is 2 and so and so thickness. Usually surfs average. The brave one Our there in a 3/2 when everyone is in 5 mils "You cold?" "Nah its not bad" The weenie Out there in a 5/4 hood gloves and boots when everyone else is in 3/2. "You dying in there?" "Nah its not bad, think I'm going 6 mil next time."

#9 Doug #9 sigh What aboot the dude who always says "shoulda seen it earlier/ yesterday". It was smokin'.
The Drop In Artist: There are an infinite number of types... but here are a few common ones: Old dude who drops in on you and blames his aging eyesight. Grom who uses his youth to his advantage, knowing he's, "just a kid." Novice who can't get a wave, and finally... his desperation drives him to do the forbidden. (He'll never do it to you twice, but does it to everybody once.)
I used to be that ghost face full of zinc (still a good idea if you're surfing a sunny summer day from 12-3pm) kook once told me he dropped in on me because he was blind in one eye...idiot
Old man ripper anyone? There are a couple dudes pushin their 60's and 70's in the line up who still shred. Love seeing that
