I picked up a little beater grom board under the SouthCoast label recently. Last night I noticed it had a very tiny G&S logo hidden on it. Funny stuff

That’s super sweet! Never seen that before. Pretty funny the G&S logo is on there

How do you like the C5 fin setup compared to a twinzer setup? Is there a notable difference?

I mostly surfed it with full setup. It worked well in head 3-5+ with the bottom contours, outline and pulled in tail. The jenson trailer was pretty low profile and just a bit of extra hold.

Here is a fun one. This is a 9’8” Larmo that was produced under the KG label. Had an overall Magic outline, but double wing/Christmas tree tail. Quad setup with 50/50 rear fins. This was another gem from @MrChristmas.

To my understanding this was a personal made for owner PJ Johnson. With opaque top and bottom and red pin lines.

I’ve seen a couple of those Christmas tree tails in birds surf shed but never in the wild. Definitely a different/fun looking shape

Here are two I've owned... a 5'8" quad Ghostbuster that I ordered new and a 6' fish that I bought on CL but was essentially brand new. I didn't give the fish much of a try because I already had the Ghostbuster and liked that one so much. I sort of regret giving the fish back up so quickly. I rode the ghostbuster to death. Originally had these cheap fins on it and later put some McCallum quads that worked well in it for me. It was the first sub 6' board that I ever tried and I was surprised how easy it was to surf and how well it paddled. It was a blast from waist to head high. I've since replaced it with a NL Minibob just to try something new but would highly recommend the Ghostbuster.

7’8” Honey Badger 2+1
I mostly surf this when it’s head high or bigger. I prefer a 8” L flex with bonzer runners, but also like a 7” greenough 4a and 3.25” Skip sides. As a single, I usually use a 7.5-8” skip.

What was the deal with KG surfboards? It was Larmo, Stu Kenson and PJ Johnson from Delray surfboards, right?

I’ve been seeing more people running the bonzer bits in the honey badger. Definitely going to be giving it a shot soon. Who made the bonzer runners?

Just throwing this up here for nostalgia.
