:lol: Wax, maybe some day we can have a paddle race, you might find out your quicker than you think (or at least not as slow as me) but there is no way I would carry an orange shoulder bag to the beach. Newtothis, check the boards section of the album page for a recent posting by Steeno of a very nice example of David Parkes take on the fish. Steen, maybe you can pass on some insights on riding these types of boards in comparison to riding the fins forward modern boards.You have ridden that beauty hav'nt you?

Doggie Style?

Post by KenM »

Kneemo, the other day I was surfing some mushburgers, leaning forward pushing on the nose trying to get some planing action (definately not dynamic) when a friend of mine paddles up and says " you look just like a dog whizzin' on a fire hydrant." I told him, "well, surfing's not the only thing I do Doggie style."

Cappy, for the surf in question, it might have required an 8'3".
