Why don't we change our avatars?

Things that don't fit anywhere else...

:lol:
I know it goes on the board, gives you grip, especially when you're hangin' ten, huh?
(Oh wait... Boards are probably too short nowdays to do that)
Could you imagine what that stuff would do to your hair???
Maybe that's what the kids are using to make their hair all spikey... :lol:

My board is 9'1" (long boards forever), but because it's new school, I can only get 5 over. I've tried 10 but every time I do, I get hit in the back of the head by the board. :?

Have a good day.

Welp,
Then I'd say it's fair to say that you've hung ten... just not for very long periods of time all at once.
It's gotta take a few fractions of a second for the board to slap yaa upside the head, right?

Careful what you ask for...it isn't always what you really wished for.

Mr. Zog's is the best for your stick! At least that's what the ad says. Gage, even though you can only do "5", I'll bet it's a lot easier to carry than the solid wood old school boards.

Heck, the boards I had back in the 50's & 60's were fiberglass & foam and I still draged them up hill from the beack. I'll bet the board I have now doesn't weigh 15 lbs. I don't really like it but I can't find an old one that I want. Would like to find an 8'10" Rick with a glassed in laminated skag built in the early 60's.

Have a good day.

Right now I have a 9'1" Jacobs built in '94 and shaped and signed by Hap Jacobs.

Hey Steve - the 'lantic doesn't have waves big enough for a long board except during a hurricane.
Reality? What a concept!

Wrong Rick. I'm looking for one of Rick Stoner's boards. He died in the late 70's. Several different people have owned that business and his son also used to make boards. Don't know if he still does. His son used smaller decals. Just a little trivia.

Have a good day.
