Plastic type 'short' longboard, pretty indestructible, reasonable easy to stand on, quite cheap, hence gets a bad reputation for being a punters board.
PS, my chicks been here 19 times, and the winter family are looking after us so should be well looked after...
very nice session yesterday, a couple of feet, super clean, and two hours in the water with no booties. (one finger turned very white, though). i have to say that the money i invested in the new board is some of the best spent money in my life. it turns and speeds, and makes me happy.
