Man this is what I call some good feedback,get the blood flowing.One more time and then were off to the next topic of debate.There is nothing wrong with any style of riding,as long as you ride,I just happen to prefer a certain style over another.

What your saying is I cant have an opinion EQ?.....thats a pretty naive attitude dont you think.I'd much ...

I think Ron shapes some of the truest kneeboards around.He doesnt get caught up in the all the hype and b.s that is so pervasive in kneeboard design nowadays.If you want a real clean responsive board that will handle anything we get here then you cant go wrong with Ron.Check out the Frog House in Ne...

Great article Rob,thanks for sharing with us.This brings up the reacurring theme of kneeboard resurgence and what do we contribute it to? My 2 cents view is that surfing as a whole is rediscovering its 'soul roots" you know that feeling that made you want to start surfing or kneeriding a long t...

Leg Cramps

Why would a 5-10 Romo give you cramps and not a 5-10 Blast? I have ridden Romo's for years as well as many other shapers and never could say a shaper caused my cramps.Cramps are caused by a cpuple of things. 1.Muscles and cells in the body that are not properly hydrated is 80% of the cause. 2. Muscl...

With all the hype lately with regards to the fish I have decided to take my original 1974 5-7 off the wall. I bought a new leash for her and took her for a pre-christmas spin in perfect kneeboard conditions in Seal Beach, 6-10 foot faces,peaky a-frames. I now understand. This design was made for So ...

Mark,ditto buddy,we passed up the southern stretch and scored perfect long peaks at Seal Beach River Jetty.12 guys out. Solid 4-8 foot faces with unreal shape.I'm thinking of catching an afternoon "bug" and hotting Bolsa Chica.

I surfed Huntington Cliffs this morning and It was totally fun.Sheet glass 4-8 foot peaks and the warmest water I can ever remember in OC.Its supposed to be a pretty good weekend with a combo of swells keeping us in the water.Get on it!

I would be very happy with glassy peaky 8-10 foot faces.For me at my age its all about shape.I have had my days of 20 foot Wedge and huge Point.I still need the juice but I would gladly give up a couple feet for primo glassy peaks.
