I don't think you need to purchase another surfboard. Sack away that $ for another little one in the near future. Kids are cuter than surfboards!

9'0" Hi-performance. It's always easy to catch waves on it no matter what size; 2-15+ feet.

you may well wish you learned to log earlier in life.


you don't need to learn how to LB. that's what you do after you're too old to shred. simple...two solid strokes, stand up on you monstrous tank years before the wave has even developed, cruz to shore on ankle snapper, knee paddle back 2 miles outside the lineup, repeat.

I saw this SWEET green Bates thruster stabbed tip first into the sand at PC yesterday. glass ons and everything. I thought of asking him if he wanted to sell it for you.

That kid had no business being out in the water.
I saw him throwing his board straight up in the air while attempting to jump over a wave. I happend to be paddeling out twice while that thing came shooting out of the water. I told him to never ever let go of his board again when someone was paddling out behind him. Unfortunately he wasn't the only one who had no idea how to duck dive a 3 foot fugging wave.

You can feel good about that great sale you made.
You helped produce a future world champ.

Sorry bro.
It's true.
I'm sure the next time we see that board it will have a spray painted skull on it and more then a couple cracks in the glass.
