    I don't have one 'cause they I think they ride like sh!t.

    I think the fins suck.

    They don't noseride.

    Not enough glide and too much flex.

    The only thing they do is float.

    But that's just my opinion. If you have fun on it, go for it... but it's not for me.

    Oh man youz guys are so mucho macho with your glassed stick egos

    Hey you know I been soft since 1990

    Sure a soft top ain't no fiberglass epoxy workhorse but they will go

    If Slater Kelly can make a coffee table go youz should be able to feel the drag on a softy

    Hey I got a stoogie and a stump but I know I could never prove myself to superior surfing CJ

    Either your frothy or not bruhs or brahs

    I hear from many newbies, they are our training boards until we are ready for the real thing.

    Going straight is possible on just about anything. doing real turns, and connecting turns, is where the limitations really come into play.

    Yeah, there are dudes who can surf an ironing board but that don't mean it's the best vehicle for that dude. I get it. It' an economical way to get in the game but it does not compare to a real bort.

    Delaware seems to have more soft tops in the lineup than just about any lineups anywhere. I have a theory on why that is, but wont go into it on here. I don't want to sound like too much of a dick
