It was like that surfing in Florence, OR, but like Hog said if they're out the waves usually aren't anything special. They only come out at Pleasure when it's complete crap. I think it's a cool sport, quite a challenge, but agree they should stay away from packs of surfers.

Nice one, Stringer!

My 9'6" Tudor Nuuhiwa that spiderwebbed all over the bottom. Extant, my 9'6" DanO Old Pleasure, but really lately I mostly ride my 42" Turbo Romero and my DaFin Kicks in preparation for winter bodysurfing.

Top 10 JB narcissists of all time? Roy can take the #1 spot, go from there! Do we need a poll?

Hahaha!

If the argument is that there wouldn't be so many kooks in non-beginner spots if they didn't have the crutch of leashes I think soft-tops would get them out there. If I had started surfing in SoCal with the option of small waves at beginner-friendly spots maybe I could have worked my way up...

Interesting shape!

That comet woulda been perfect, put some hair on your chest! Note to self- sell everything you don't need and buy the next comet that you can find for sale...shootz on the right day I wouldapaid 1200+ for that thing!

Right on, for 20k new I'm not expecting too much I usually buy sturdier cars used though so if it feels like a refrigerator box on wheels I may not be into it. Congrats on the Sprinter (and no sales tax?), if that's what I was looking for I wouldn't give the nv a second look. Any conversion plans?

I'm really digging the nissan nv200. Doesn't look like you could fit a 9'6" in the back but I dont mind working the passenger seat into the board storage area, just need something to support them in the rear and it would be pretty much where im at with my passenger setup eurovan. I usually...

It's been flat here for a while, been productive in other areas of life. Took this today. Surfing tomorrow! :)
