picked up a new board(custom) at Surf the Earth in P.I. last Friday and was lucky enough to get a little wave the same day...yep, the same day. That just never happens. Anyway it is a great all around board from what I can tell so far. Caught everything and very responsive! It is a long board shape that is only 8'4". epoxy Ricky Carroll high performance with chined(sp) rails. 7" wingnut with side bites. Had to get one after riding PFox's and damn glad I did. So if anyone is out there huntin a board that will actually excel in our less than great conditions I high recommend going and talking to Scott at STE. I hope everyone is doing well and you have a great Easter weekend. Peace
I have the 9'0" version of that board 4+1 setup pretty bad-ass ride,Just got a 9'6" Meyerhoffer this past Thursday,thing nose rides killer and turns like it's 3ft. shorter! (Very sick)
Lovely. Where did you get the Meyerhoffer? Whats the fin set up and material on that board? I am really eyeballin the 6'2" walden board that is shaped like a longboard. Looks fun!
Meyerhoffer Picked it up at Village,2+1 fin config. Epoxy.Stock fins are 8in.center fcs m-3's found out that's not enough fin,put 9in. Albacore flex and Walden template sidebiters and still found it quite loose. Gonna jam a 10in. Wingnut long rake and Slater 2.1's in it tomorrow to see if that will stiffen it up a bit!?? The thing gets tons of hang time on floaters too. They have a 9'2" still in stock at Village.
what have you guys been riding these nice new performance longboards on? been flat as hell out there.
Fun, but I think it'd be a way better shape if it had a lot more thickness. Like thickness similar to that of a standard longboard throughout the whole thing.
RETIRED....you suck! LOL just kidding. I barely have time to wipe my ars. Well, good for you. I look forward to the day! Might be a little wave Saturday morn and I plan on hittin it. See ya out at P.I.
I believe thats what I am checkin out with the Walden Superwide. Basically, just like a longboard only 6'2".
Had a 7'2" Mini-magic and a 6' CD a couple of years ago,fun boards once I got my fins dialed in!! I even used my wing-keel fin on the MM,screws with your head though beveled rails and tons of lift at the tail. The superwide sounds good,guess they got my e-mails about blowing the board dims. out a bit?
Yeah I get told that all the time,but when people I surf around want to test ride new or different fin template combos they ask me.
