ha ha, well i can pretty much get going in anything.

I mean like the other day i was maxed on my 9m on a twinny at brighton when people were riding 5 to 9's with a surfboard so im figuring when we get it coming in proper everyday, a 5m rev or something would be all good.

Hey im always first on the water in light winds ha ha ha
