    Tim Stamps - Shaper of the Year

    Picking up the 5'10" x 19.25" x 2.38" warhawk within the next week or two. I'll post quiver pics once it's in my dirty grubby mitts.

    Tim Stamps - Shaper of the Year

    Finally got the b12 step up in OH+ surf at a ledgy wave that has some sections where the bottom drops out. The thing absolutely goes, best step up I’ve had in a very long time.

    Yeah, and the modern rocker profile with lower nose and more tail rocker.

    Tim Stamps - Shaper of the Year

    Yeah mostly. I also own a 6'6" and a 6'10" but those boards are old and I never really felt I needed them that much around here. I think I've used the 6'10" in southern CA once. You just don't need much board at the waves I surf. Also I'd ride a modern 6'1 or 6'2" stepup in waves I'd be on a...

    Tim Stamps - Shaper of the Year

    Yeah my approach to quivers is probably bad for shapers bottom line. Also it's technically 3 boards if you include the stepup, but 99% of my surfing is done on a 5'8" x 19 3/4" fish or a 5'9" x 19ish" hpsb. As a kid I could only afford one or two boards at most so I just got used to that. If I'm...

    I've only ridden the B12 stepup once during that October south swell in socal. Kinda hard to explain the setup without giving it away, but I used the glass EA’s when I rode it during that October socal south swell. High tide at first and the B12 wasn't going on the head high kinda flat waves...

    Twitter lol

    I'm married into a family of engineers. Some of them are just like this. My FIL has the same tic about people calling airport runways the "tarmac."

    Tim Stamps - Shaper of the Year

    Leash broke at a rocky wave and the days of my grinder x are now numbered. I went ahead and just put in an online order to Tim but wanted to hear what you guys think. So my socal quiver is normally two (or three) boards. A fish, an everyday shortboard, and a stepup. The problem I've had is the...

    Twitter lol

    Twitter is filled with nerds who are really awkward in person but really good at thinking of zingers 5 min later. I'm really curious to learn more why twitter isn't "tech". Is it a "building rockets to space is tech, programming content algorithms to hijack attention span is not" type of thing?

    Elon bought twitter for the same reason that Putin invaded Ukraine.

    The (Prone) Paddleboard Thread

    For sure, he and I have been talking over DM. I want to make sure I can keep up with them first though. The constant low grade intensity is different than the stop and start sprints I do when normally surfing.

    The (Prone) Paddleboard Thread

    Ordered one of those this weekend. I've been scheming how I can get a second paddle in on weekdays. I feel like a grom again.

    The (Prone) Paddleboard Thread

    Just did my first paddle this morning on a 12ft bark surftech commander. Don't know how far I went but I paddled straight for a little over an hour. Probably only 2 or 3 miles but I don't feel super tired. I'm gonna go tomorrow and try to push it a little further. Also I'll remember to turn on...
