One things for sure, at your weight on that board, you're sure going to catch some waves. If it's a nose rider you're probably going to be doing a different style of riding compared to the Walden so the length is not so much a factor. You will want to move around a lot more and do big deliberate turns off the tail with all the front of the board rearing its head out in front of you, then moving up quickly to trim and do it all over again in the opposite direction. Is that the type of riding you want to move towards? Or do you think you'll always be a hotdogger who prefers the shorter style? Keep in mind that these thoughts are coming from someone who can only do these things in his dreams

Thanks guys, I am a into performance longboarding yes, but want to do more traditional surfing but a board that is not 100 percent limited to it But the single is a must, takes out the ohhhh should have the bites in today Mac will email you now, yep shop is going ok, but the earth quacks have cause a up raw on sales and only one beach is open since two days ago I surfed the closed beach last night 2 ft clean on the mal and i have not got a extra head growing so cant be that bad on sewage I say harden the f... up and get into it, then i might sell some boards

I'm a fan of side bites.... for me, they just stay in there all the time.... Come and hang in the Longboard Room a bit more BP. Distinct lack of grumpy old men in here, on comparison to the SUP room.

hmmmmm yummy

That fin looks pretty good. send in some more pics of the board.

Thanks, i think i will order one in, Will take photos of the board i hope tommorow just need to do a small repair, So dam tied up doing every other buggers board Never thought i would like a single esp with 50/50 rails but i would say its my fav board yet

Thanks, im sure the board i have here is the nose rider model .. Looks the same as the website anyway and same spray, I would not say the nose it overwide though But its more a modern old school board i think If anyone can comfirm the model this would be great

^ looks a bit like a pig with the hips pulled in

LOOK BP,if its not MCTAVISH,I am NOT interested

You know I was joking BP On the tint can someone PLEASE post some picture of awesome tint work.

Thats a great pic and you look so happy Such an awesome board, I would love a shorter version of that like a 7,6

Keep thinking about that session at the Pass, the first on the Saturday. Was so much fun. I recon 7,6 is the go and I fell inlove with Vanders Astro, asea's was very nice as well. Spewin asea could have come with us, but fun was had all the same

There's some 7'6" with your name on them at 6oz - the takayama NR or scorpion come to mind there was a really nice 7'2" NR in there the other day, lasted a day in the shop

The Cooperfish site has some pretty nice tints. A nice tint with a pigment overlay can look good too.

Thanks for link matehope it all goes well for you in Roma
