Sweet be worth revisiting mate it's 2019


haha true, never even seen a modern Tolhurst over here though, yet alone one for sale. Doesn't sound like Razz will sell his

I got 7'2" Linchpin off him last year for 6'+ up north barrels. Awesome board. He glasses his own boards too and the finish is superb. I'm looking at a Denzel next.

Saw a 8' Linchpin get surfed in the 3.5m contest a month ago. Yewwww! Zac's boards are sick.


Great looking boards, a round tail Denzel is the board I think would fit my current quiver very well also

Get a mctav with a triple stringer , My Fire ball single stringer snapped on a 3 ft day recently , on a shallow bank , Seen a snapped Tolhurst pop out , Thera not much inside them , multiple stringers is the way to go .


sunovas have as much wood in the rails (stingers) as 3 regular stringers , but with the benefit of increased flex and torsion

Sorry boys that was poorly written. Final paragraph should of contained my opening statement regarding longboards. It describes what I have found with the Tolly & why I like it so much

Only on the lookout for HP shortboards about 30L - 32L atm Something to slip in between a 6'0 Hypto & a 6'4 DHD Ducks Nutz

Drip I've eyed off a couple of Zac Ogram's selling locally lately. Good chance a Z shape will be my next board.

Mac not sure how old the interview I read was, but I read that somewhere 2 years ago when I was considering purchasing the Tolhurst Tuflight & googling it.

I would like to pause on this for a second.
Unfortunately I was working away when this went down, I seen footage of antmans barrel, in fact I seen photos and footage of quite a bit of this.
What I consider to be a who's who's lost of underground generally non sponsored humans tackled solid solid waves that day without a single picture published in a magazine ( that I'm aware off)
This place breeds underground chargers
Men ( and women ) who paddle Bombies solo a Kay or more in the middle of the big sea
Zacs boards are beyond sick they are proper hunter gatherer boards

A group of humble humans performing the equivalent of climbing Everest and the prize is the honour of surfing

Proper legit surf comp
