Well thank you! I remember hearing something Wayne Rich once said about covering your mistakes being a key to success, so I guess that kind of sunk in.
Up next, the "Vince/Vaughn" model - 7'7" for my buddy Vaughn with a highly experiMENTAL flex stringer and possibly some slightly less experimental but still uber cool mini bonzer side bites.
So they reissued that model? Looks brand new. I have an original that's more like 8'0" I think. Huge wide hull entry with pulled in tail and negative rocker just forward of the fin box. I used this G&S fin it and it works great. Hard to find fin at the moment though.
That thing was an experiment in stupidity, haha. It's currently in mothballs due to the rails cracking where the flex points met the rails. Probably won't see the water again but it was a fun experiment and I learned a lot.
Some great movies peeps but four pages of comments and not one mention of Evolution? Aside from the opening tune which is a bit too wannabe Jefferson Airplane the music is spot on, and if you get into the flow the movie tells a story despite the lack of narration. The surfing and cinematography...
Full disclosure: I built the website and manufactured the wax molds for Horny Toads Surf Wax. I was also part of R&D as a test rider for the wax as it was being developed. I rated the first bar I ever tried a 2 on a 1-10 scale, but they have come a long way since then. It has now replaced Sex...
One likely explanation is that Sex Wax is the only wax that comes in cellophane, and cellophane floats in the breeze much easier and breaks down much slower than paper or cardboard, in which case some fingers should be pointed toward the company as well as the users of the product.
