Any board you order with a heavy glass job is likely to be a total dog, and every board that you wish had heavier glass is going to be pure magic...
Hilarious. Hadn't noticed.
Oh yeah, current Carver quiver: Venice (36") + C7, orig. wheels. Hot Dogger (42") + CX, orig. wheels. Flowmaster (41") + C7, ABEC11 No Skoolz 65...
Anyone else riding Carvers in parks? I do the daily carve up and down the street but I'm really getting into riding 'em in bowls. For the parks...
I was very tentative about it at first bc I hadn't skated vert since the 80s. Now it's my go-to substitute when I can't surf.
Nah Carvers work great in skateparks as long as you respect what they do and don't do. I ride a 42" Flowmaster with C7s and it's the tits for...
Both. I skated in the 80s, quit for 20 years and took it up again a few years back. Usually ride a Carver in the skateparks when I can't surf -...

Lots of spots in the Gulf get swell. And more often than you'd think. But usually onshore windswell junk.
Nice thread and glad to see other people as stoked about Carvers. I've got the 42" (Flowmaster) w/ C7/C2 and a 36" Venice, C7/C2. On both I'm...
It does look like rainfall in June can be kinda bad - July and August totals are much lighter. Definitely avoid Oct/early Nov.
Guanacaste is not too rainy that time of the year. Afternoon-evening showers are common but it's not like the full on rainy season. You might...
You can learn to surf in Nosara in the summer. Lots of people do. It will occasionally get 2x overhead but 5-7 feet is more common. If you...
