"You want a board that catches a ton of summer waves but don’t want to strap a 9 foot board on your roof? Or maybe you’re new to surfing but don’t want to be a kook on a Tork? Or maybe you just want to spice up your quiver?"

Sorry Tex.....the Torqed hate is for reals :lol:

This seller is a class act. Deep roots and deep cuts in the quiver. Radical perspectives on surfing. Sold off a spoon that was shaped by someone in GG's circle, if not by Greenough himself for 300 clams.

Don't buy this board, mid-lengths and 2+1s kinda suck. Devon's mushy shoulder guttbacks have become boring. Could go quad thou.

Jah Mid did certainly provide! But surfing 2-3 days a week sequentially, mostly midweek, finding I'm having way to much fun on newish and slightly upped volume fish and chonk shorty, which unfortunately is likely to change very soon :cry: Wasn't crazy about single either. Prolly regret it..... esp when I have to collect at Social Securities or if I rip to Tx's shangrala. Sold inna week for full price and have a feeling I might see it again, in my line, either on a clueless drop in or in the way on the wave my the day. :lol: Basement board rack is looking awfully empty with 3 boards now.

Selling because I need to thin the quiver. I don’t have a garage and my wife lets me store my boards in the house, but apparently 10 boards when living in Vancouver WA is a bit excessive. I disagree, nevertheless….


Truly worst time of the year... but fair enough excuse. No garage, can relate. Was down to 2 unintentionally, now 3, and hope to get to 4 or 5 here soon. 4 or 5 is ideal for basement quiv stash IMO.

Still no expected estate sales..... :?:

Never been a fan of Sarftech, but this one looks about right for a "shorter mid" niche I am trying to fill:

6-8. This is their EPS tech and Mollusk glass and polish finish I guess. Worth a haggle perhaps, but sand bank is decaying and seasons waning as well as order in the que with uber hip performance alt shaper.
