    Anyone bought and/or ridden a Hanlon LB? Thoughts?

    Nice resin color with the old school heavy tanker vibe going on. First glance indicates the shaper has not shaped a lot of boards and judging from the web picts it would be surprising if he has cracked 1000 (hand) shaped blanks. I'm sure they ride great along w/ lookin' real pretty. Thing is one can procure a big US Blank, skin it, turn the rails, glass her up and have a decent log that anyone can enjoy without any shaping experience. Buy one and go have fun on some mushy 2 footers along w/ supporting the local boardsmith.

    I have had one for about 2 years. Definitely a heavier, old school style of longboard. I like it in waist high stuff, the glide is fantastic. Taking it out on a big day I get scared its gonna kill me if I wipe.
