Is suicide an option?

What about alcoholism?

I've spent enough time on crap waves that I'll snap one for perfection.

how broken is broken? i'd rather surf the mush with the right board than be tortured by a perfect wave peeling away without me.

anyway, i'm all about junk. junk waves, junk skatespots. its a new movement i'm starting. intentionally seeking the shittiest conditions to see what you can come up with. perfection is overratted.

How do you surf a wave with a broken board, the closest I've come was a water logged board. The foam was completly black. If you didn't catch a big wave then you sank.

new board, because then I have a new board and invariably things will clean up or I could sell it and buy drugs and get laid and then start a white slavery racket and pay all my bills with a miles card and go to somewhere where the waves are perfect and do blow and talk about how much america sucks and brag about scoring fine hookers like someone else on here does and then wake up one morning to realize that it's a paradox to 'score' a hooker.

I vote for the perfect wave and broken board.

The price of riding the perfect wave would be a broken board. I'd mount the board pieces on my wall. The story of the perfect wave, and board pieces would be passed down through the generations; with each telling the story would become a little bit more extreme. Eventually the story would reach into the urban legend realm, only to be saved from fiction by the board fragments. Eventually they would be a permanent fixture in the Smithsonian.

A broken board is a small price to pay for perfection and immortality.

Okay, let's make this a little more interesting--

WOuld you rather be on a new board on the perfect wave, but if you mess the drop, don't get the line and don't get out of the barrel, the board breaks and then THEY kill your parents by throwing acid on them. If your parents are already dead,THEY throw acid and kill your girlfriend or boyfriend or one of your sister or brother's children?


Or would you rather be on a a so-so wave with a stolen board where the real owner is in the lineup and was just released from a mental instituition for murdering his brother because he looked at him 'funny' And when you kick out of the wave he's bound to see his board under your feet?

None of you geniuses thought of body surfing or knee boarding, did ya........of course the perfect wave, it's not as if you broke a leg. Yeah it's foggy and windy, what's it to you?

Gaz and Gils, us maniacal genius' think alike.

I would body surf the perfect wave with me broken board as a boogie board.

Then after paddling back out, I would find the guy stole my board, follow hime to shore, kill him, look at Redliner funny, then drop acid with my mom.

Hows that for a slice of fried gold?
