Just been asked by the lady if I want a new Board for Xmas. Bloody tough question.
Rehearse this ,"Yes my dear when we hit Hawaii I will be stuffing my christmas stocking (board bag) with Brewers or a nice Owl Chapman singly if I can find one. Have I told you how lovely you look lately"
...the key is to distract them with technical talk (shapers names/board sizes) and then compliment them this way they are confused because it sounds like you are getting more than one board but their happy to recieve a compliment.
Unfortunatly if your lady friend is married to a board whore she will be onto this trick and you may need to come up with something even more devious....if you work out anything good can you let me know
