Shinn monk is unbelievable for lawn mowing...

Seems all the fatties, oldies and short tackers are on them this year

Similar to seeing a hot Asian chick in the arms of a pensioner, just not right

I picked up a Victa Classic Cut with a Briggs and Stratton 4 stroke from Bunnings for $390.

Semi cheap, plastic wheels but does the job.

Dont know what it would be like in the surf?

I'd class mine in the slashing dept more than lawn mowing

You can always tell a good lawnmower by the use of a board leash.

was out in 14-15knots with a 10m and 6' tomo surfboard just to unwind on a sunset evening. even managed toe-side a few times.

you really notice the board dragging but no troubles going upwind.

water was 1-2 foot deep with reefs so no room for foils not that I would anyway

how about motorized foils, get going in zero knots (kite may become a drag)

Second the shinnster. It and my 18m get me out in almost nothing. It's fun with more wind too!

Mowing the lawn is so boring I actually pay someone to do it.

Can't even take any photos - he just goes up and back, not even the odd basic trick.

Tried the Shinnster. It sure doesn't look like much but it rides super smooth. Shuvits, popping it up in the air, going tail first. Such a fun board. Also good at mowing the lawn I suppose if you're in to that.
