Couldn't be happier. Have a total range of boards from 7'6 large volume quad and keel fish's, 8-8'4 mid length / big guy shortboards including a couple of nuggets, 8'6 - 9'0 semi guns, 9'2 - 11'0 longboards including performance, noseriding and mal gun shapes and rounding it out with a few 10'4 - 12'2 gliders and a few SUP's of varying shapes for novelty waves and family water time.

What could I add ? A tweak here and there, maybe a yellow tinted double stringer 9'6 fun gun at some stage and while it's never complete; this also answers the other topic as to why I'm still stoked to surf and never grow tired of it being a constant reinvention and learning progress changing up or down dependant on conditions, location and how the body and mind feels on any given day.

You do have a lot of boards.
But you do surf a lot too

Yeah good topic. I too have scaled back the Traditional longboard quiver...added a mid length and Glider and now the Speedshape....even fell back into the grove with a 6,4 Merick on my Indo trip!.
I'm kinda on the one of each type of board mission. I had 3 or 4 noseriders at one stage...all epic boards but they were competing for surf time. I kept my favourite of each and moved the others on.
I think I have one space for either a long fish or 8,2 ish Mid length.
So yeah... one more board to go (10.5 Bing) and one more on the way in.

I could possibly help with the 10ft plus log....very special 10.5 BING silver spoon I would consider parting with.

Only been riding 2 boards this year so had a clear out, just picked up a vouch a couple of weeks back.


Fairly settled slimmed down line up for me now, I think it will play out as: 7'2 thick Lizzy - my shortboard!
8'1 Gato heroi acid- more of a good wave board,
8' vouch Vish- Longboard replacement and crowded day wave hog option.

The only board that tempts me now is a 7ft ish mote massive.

Surfing only two boards was quite liberating, uncomplicating my surfing life has been refreshing.

No, I have too many boards.
I get anxiety every time I have to pick 2 to take down the coast

Its a nuisance when you are leaving the house and they are all yelling "TAKE ME,TAKE ME!"

I had 8 voices who would all yell out take me take me, I evicted 4 due to being lazy tenants ,the other remaining 4 have fallen into line.
4 half the trouble.

3-4 is a good number.... I often found myself sitting in the water thinking "maybe Ishould've brought.....", A reduced quiver and a ride "what you brought" attitude keeps my mind in the present so I can just catch waves..... now i wait till I am on dry land scrolling through Instagram to let my quiver anxiety kick in

Yep, both gone to a breezer!

They were ( are) great boards and I wouldn't hesitate to get another one from Pieter as he is a fantastic shaper!

More than happy with the quiver I have at the moment, the only thing missing is a logger but am in no hurry as the 9'2 Farrelly is pretty versatile and I haven't surfed it much lately, will probably get a locally made Keyo when the time comes, mainly riding a 6'2 and 6'10 as heading to Indonesia in a couple of weeks for some warm water waves

I'm happy with the boards in my quiver, some I haven't used for a while.
Not selling cos one day I will need them when the waves are right
Happy with the boards not happy with how often I get to chose which one
