Just got a new gem today. Sold my 6'4" Santa Cruz Tuflite Fish and found a pretty much brand new 5'8" Brian Wynn Fish on craigslist. Took it out in the chest to shoulder high chop today in Belmar. All I Can say is she rides In light of this new addition to my family, what's in your quiver? And in what conditions do you like each board From left to right: 5'7" x 22.5 x 2.65 Wynn groveler. 5 fin set up. I ride it as a quad. Kills in chest to shoulder. Works well in knee to waist too. Looking to bond with this baby more this summer. 5'8" x 20 5/8 x 2 9/16 Wynn fish. 5 fin set up. Just got this one today. I have 4 fins with a 5th trailing fin. I like the extra hold. This will be my daily driver. 7'6" 22 3/8 x 3 Ron Jon funboard. Tri fin. It's a blast in ankle biters to shoulder/head high. This Jawn is glassed extra heavy and hasn't dinged in the most brutal of conditions. First board that I really bonded with. I will probably never get rid of it. What's in your quiv???
If I had a 5'7, that thing would be an incense holder. I kid, I kid. Nice pics, Kan. I'd post my slew of addiction, er, boards, but it would take forever. 23 is too many to trundle into the frame. Some are at work, some at home, some in Cali. I'll revel in the pics of y'all's functional art.
For any and all the waves I ride these days, I've narrowed it down to 3 borts. Any more would be a waste of time and money for me. I know what I like and like what I know.
One for each foot at the Belmar. 5'6 (?) Mini-Sim 6'0 fish 6'2 fish 6'4 round tail 6'6 round tail 7'0 rounded pin 9'3 log
Nice! Seems like a pretty reasonable quiv. I need to a get log soon. I might get one of those odysea soft top logs. They just came out with a single fin option. That + one of those carver skateboards and i'll feel set.
This picture is a few years old...but mostly what I'm still riding...basically three of the boards get ridden 90% of the time.
I love the set up Mitch. Sick quiver. I was checking out those photos on your photobucket too. You shredz. Don't you make a lot of your own boards? That yellow and orange twin fin on your account is so gnarly. I definitely need a twin in my life.
This board? Yeah it changed the way I looked at riding 2 foot waves. It's 4'11" x wide x flat rockered.
It looks like most your boards have wider noses and pulled in tail with the exception of the standard baords on right. What fins are you running in that mini simmons, they look small?
It is a Gipos....5'8" EPS. i think i would have liked it better set up as a quad. I've since sold it. haha...yeah i kind of went through a phase of putting tiny fins in the mini simmons to make them as fast and loose as possible... I'm putting Rasta Keels in the mini simmons these days.
I took out a 40 year mortgage on my Roy Stuart 19' Dragon. She rides like a battleship. I've killed an entire elementary school worth of kids on the inside with it too. Leashless, bruh. I might see if my bank will let borrow against the equity I have in it so that I can finally pull the trigger on one of those outerknown tee shirts.
Yeah mitch that's the one. I would like to try something like that down the road for sure. There is a guy in OCNJ who rides a very similar board but its a square tail and round nose. Kind of simmons like but a quad. He rips too. I definitely want a twin fin sometime but I just don't know what design I should go with. Retro fish? Simmons? I think I need to have a retro twin in my quiver. Something like this...
