    Picked up a used flex pig 3 weeks ago and haven't had a chance to get it in the water yet. To be fair I was in San Diego for a week but damn El nino. WB has been awful. Thinking about taking up rollerblading

    Dude- I hear razors are a little more fun then rollerblading- just remember your helmet!



    Really nice board btw- the pig shape is my fav, I love the way they noseride. And that fin is sweet too... What are the dims?

    I just picked up a sweet Ricky Carroll pig off craigslist a little while ago... And in the spring a Jim Phillips - which is the best longboard I have ever ridden.... 10'4

    What are you waiting for. There have been plenty of knee high days lately fit for that log, unfortunately that is about all. Isn't that what you get a tanker for? Glassy thigh high set tomorrow for SNC east facing beaches- maybe let that super high tide back out a little and get your wingnut on. You would be a posuer if you didn't....

    I know, I know. But I have this thing when I get a board where I'll wait weeks or months sometimes for the perfect day to christen it. I once waited 7 months - it's a problem I know. This board is 9'4 and weighs close to 30 lbs. I'm waiting for a knee - waist high day which in September is that really asking too much?????

    Judging by the paint and the weight, I'd say somebody restored it.

    Awesome. This is my RC log. Bought it off a friend, it it was basically brand new. It surfs better than any other LB I have ridden.

    Let me have one more cup of coffee. I'll be posting my log (although it could be loose stool) in about 15-20 mins.
