That's the Teahupoo kid, yeah?

I'm keen to see his return to that place.

Yep, that's the guy. And my thoughts exactly, GF; in so early and so composed.

Thanks for that one, Stu.
Sat and watched the webcam for 20min this morning, and it looked incredible. Very high on my Yes Please list.

Surfline, GF. Sadly the only option over here.

Thanks IB, I never knew there was a camera on Sunset. Such a good wave, I can picture myself losing a few hours watching that.

The same width throughout the quiver. Seems to be less common these days. I know Al Byrne was a proponent of it. I think I prefer adding a bit of meat and width for extra paddle and retaining a bit of outline curve as the boards get longer.

Heck yeah. I'd bring 6'10 DS, 8'0 Keogh, 8'6 DS. Full old man crutch quiver.

Boards have got too wide thick and clunky with no flex these days.
Those look good….they will go fast and arc well.
My all time favs were 6 8 x 1 9 x 2 1/4” in proper waves.
But I was 85kg…..not now…ha.

85 KG on those Dims would have been a Battle Surely .

Get in late and steep and feel the flex Udo……the longer boards offset the thickness….the spring out of the turns is worth the extra paddle power required.
Young guys should give them a go….at least have one in their quiver.
I try and get my kids to ride em but nup….5’9’s….they are into…pffft…
They won’t even go near a 6’6” in good waves…..deer with no eyes.

Maybe 2 1/4 flat deck but generally I’d be happy with a 6’8, 19, 2 1/2 rolled deck in good waves. I’m 80kgs.
