Just added a FCS fin in the back.

Could be ridden as an Aussie style four fin.
Could be ridden as a Flashpoint style three fin.
Also, could be ridden as a small fin cluster standard tri fin set up as on stand-up boards.

5'10" / 24" wide / swallow tail with Parkes Deck Pads.

Standard Parkes design:

Wide point forward
Double concave.
Wings and a couple other cool things like a step deck in the tail area.

Picture will be hard for me to do but Oakland can see it live and in person as I live just over the hill.

K-man, I see the forecasted wind has changed to going west earlier. Will bobo handle that wind? or should I get my chores done and wait for sunday?

Glassy all day today.Wind predictions for here are not very accurate.Swell may peak on sun.2-4 ft south,under the NW.Hard to say from day to day.I'd say sunday is the best day in terms of swell size.Don't quote me though.Best laid plans.....etc :lol:

Must be some surf in the SC area?Couple friends called said they were having some fun.

OB was funky. Waves in the 4-8' range with little organization but no wind. Saturday morning I lucked into a wedge the was hitting the inner bar. Barrels to be had after freefall drops. (My unoffical count was one coverup, one deep and long that closed on me and one long pocket ride in the dawn sunlight.) Nobody noticed the luck I was having and I was alone for an hour before the tide changed it. More good waves today at a different part of the beach but there always seemed to be someone behind me, or the set broke on my head, or someone in the impact zone... OB is a crazy place to surf.

Just got back from a nice little surf just down the road from home. Hot
weather and smooth conditions all day but the sandbars needed the upcoming tide this afternoon to bring the shape together.

Early hot spell at the beach = more pasty, white flesh than you really
would care to have to look at!!

Think of one of the best SW summer swells and some of the best winter high pressure conditions....sets were 8 on the 10 scale today but overall "just" a 7/10 due to crowd at our favorite San Diego beachbreak.
