Found a flow state on the midlength today and had my best yet on this new board. Had a hunch conditions would warrant with the big HT mid day and 9 second Springish wind swell. CH to HH with some push, but still kinda fat. Was able to link multiple sections together with that built in glide off a rip bowl left. Board is supper responsive, put it on a rail, even had a couple swooping roundies, and went great backside on an open face. Much better than previous sessions so far..... having fun with 2+1. Wouldn't of had half as much fun on my fish. Chilly in the shade toasty in the sun kinda fall morning. Waters still on the warm side and was clear, green, and filled with jellyfish.

7'1" length. I will check Tex. Left the rest up to the Art. More volume than I would of requested, but seems to be in the right places.

Yah there was a little LP pulsing for sure! Think it was 2 or 3 when I looked at the breakdown. Was pulsing some good sets amongst the 9 second wind swell reverb and prob the long ones that made the sesh. Would of been a lot punchier on a lower tide, but that was a big one at 7+. Although I did peep a few spots I didn't have time to really look around, had a hunch about something else, but I couldn't chance it. Squeezed one in on a long lunch break and the Pref-Egg saved the day! 8) Figured there'd be some leftovers. Conditions looks like butter this am. Good work. 2 or 3 20'ers out the back.

For the record all of mine were DIY and from my recollection maybe one turned out alright. Tom Scott would be the man for the job I bet. Otherwise maybe get in line with El Brodo and one of his henchmen may get it right?

Willy gave up repairs when Murdey gave up his shaping bay.

Tom Scott fixed a fin box I blew out this summer, over-amping and trying too hard...

Anyway, with fin boxes make sure the ding guy gets the toe in/ cant angles right. Best to give them some fins so they can match the angles with the fin on the other side of the board.
