Hahaha pretty much spot on. No Lost or Roberts and no HP Grovelers. WD2 would be a sick ride though.

Speaking of Lost..... cant believe no one has grabed this RNF $100 off too.

Maybe next you can start a thread discussing your profound knowledge of brain surgery.

Ha, it's been a looong time since someone tossed the K word around on this deadbeat site.
Thanks for the throwback, DaHuihead...much needed, brah.

Ha! Ha! Buoyhead is the only one with a brain posting on this thread. You friggin' bunch of "Posers". If i were not a shaper myself and didn't sell materials to two or three of the best shapers in Oregon I'd buy a Soft Top from Surftech and be better off than anyone you good ol'boyz have mentioned in this thread. Ha! Ha! Don't comment any further. You'll make yourselves look like bigger BAFOONS than you are. And---- Spent-- Buy a board in Idaho . Lowelk

Ha! Too late. I sold it for the $$$ I wanted before you could flag the add. I got three more just like it though. I use my real name, phone#, address and google map to my shop. I don't hide behind a bull shite moniker or a keyboard. But you girls go ahead on. Keep hope alive.

I'd say Art and Dan have been at it for a long time, so has Lanny, but I don't do eps.

When was that? How far back have you gotta go??? Got any pics of those bitchin' sticks?

Didn't flag your add/adds Lowel...... have actually been a customer of yours in the past. So hows the learning curve regarding EPS vs. Poly? Have had several boards from Markos, good shite. Just haven't mowed an EPS board yet.

EPS is not an easy thing to do. Thank God for Spackle. Be careful with the Surform. You will wind up with an unintentional ASYM. Touchy bunch of people in the Northwest.

fresh coast? WTH is that? so many "shapers" but how many know what's up with their glass game? There's

Chunky shapes with boxy rails from what I've felt up. Prob works for the clientele and standard local conditions, catches waves, and gets down the line, etc.

But when you want to do all that and then put it on a rail when the opp presents itself without over bloating your CL's....... this guys been filling the magic in my quiver recently. Not domestic PNW, but certainly "domesticated".

Ha! Ha! I'm lovin' it. Still crankin' a few out. Selling blanks etc. to some pretty damned good local boys. None of them mentioned in your previous posts.. Might be because they actually live and Shape at the beach. Sat on a stool and watched a Master turn a rail on a longboard and a mid-size last week. Good to have friends and gurus.
