Looks sweet. My next investment will be something a bit shorter to cope with the massive antarctic swells of the Western Cape.

Suffering withdrawal symptoms at the moment, been almost a month since I was last in the water.

yesterday was perfect.
got to the beach, and there was like 1 ft on the rocks. time for a chat, another, a coffe and pastry, other chat, some pizza and red wine, and we were back, with a couple feet. then the wind died.

the swell came in absolutely without any wind, got to 6/7ft, a super long left till shore.
yes yes fucking yes it was due.
wednesday go to the shapers room to talk about rails.
this was due too.

That's why I shaped my own - it cost about £150 in total including the electric sander.... try it sometime, it's great.

good, good fellings, even if ill have to wait ages for my board, and had to change my mind according to the gurus suggestions.
so i still went classic, but:

9'2" pintail glassed single fin.
