    We are a bunch of dudes who spend too much time on surf predictin website message boards...

    So we get excited when a female comes around.

    Bubonics has his pants off right now, and Brewengineer just went into the bathroom.

    another vote for 7'6" egg. Perfect shape and length for the transitioning beginner.

    Pretty sure that our new bonne amie wants to take the next step away from a soft top. That's why a shorter egg shape with plenty of length and some thickness carried in the deck would be a great step to the next level.

    But just to be sure, I feel that qualified Swellies need a picture of the prospective rider so we can use our best judgment. And not just a head shot, either.

    Yes a full prone body shot then we would be able to tell exactly what board would fit best underneath it..possibly superimpose one there...
