Second hand yolo, doesn't look like it's ever been ridden. 5'9 stonk. Low key airbrush, stressing out about what leash string to run....

Pretty hefty concaves, and serious beef under the rear foot. She thicc
550 rainbow paracord for small wave mush. maybe some extra dangly tails a la @oeste858 if you are feeling sassy.

750 black paracord for overhead surf or more formal settings.

That matching traction pad is impressive.

I say you go full contrasting color with the leash string - like an international orange or similar.

Got my varial aipa dark twin yolo last week. Finally unboxed it. Feels a lot thinner than 2 3/4". Maybe it's my dad bod, but I don't think I'm going to keep it. Listed it already. Will see if I get any takers.
I know what you mean. Mines 2 3/4 also and you wouldn't guess it.

I have one at 2 3/4 and yes it is very refined. I really like the board especially in steeper waves, it’s not a groveler, and I am glad I “sized up”. I say give it a go given your location!
Yeh, I like the way it feels on turns. Especially in bowly sections

How'd she go?
Really fun in slopey beach break, needs a lil bit of push. Will go great at OB once we get some waves

I think it'll like a lined up point too but the one day I had it out at pleasure point it was nothing but burgers

What size did you get?
5.10 - those 2 9/16 rails are chonk, I like.

nice uggs!
I moved here about 8 years ago. I looked and saw grown adult men walking around with these in winter, and I was aghast. How can someone be seen walking around in these things, boardshorts, tshirt and uggs, while checking the surf.

2 years later, it became my winter uniform.
