Gliders....
- Thread starter VaB
- Start date
2min15 mark young Stubbsy riding his 6' Pacer egg and me at 2min22 riding near the end of my last wave on the 9'1" Pacer from the previous page on its maiden surf at Noosa.
return of summer glider days.....
72 degrees and cloudy, light west winds (offshore) and 1-2 foot surf with an occasional 3 foot (east cost wave heights, sorry HI, this 3ft wave is not overhead....) . tried to surf my fish and really struggled but had some great waves on the glider. Clean long lines and lots of fun. Water temps are up, looking forward to trunks, sunshine and gliders.

Has surfboard inflation hit the glider market or can I still get one for under $1k?
who has eyes on whats available OTR in SD?

Bird
Last week, Bird still had a 8'0 mitsven mini glider for like $900 or $950. Perfect fo summa. You know what to do.
Does it come with saw horses? Maybe I could convince hunny bunny it’s the 8person dining room table she’s been asking for.
11’0 John Kies Glider - sporting goods - by owner - sale
This board paddles faster than anything else on the water and can catch bumps out past the guys on SUP’s. Perfect board for San O or any other clean open break. 500 OBO

Just sayin', you don't have to get a resin swirly hipster craft.
I have a glider I will sell, a 9'6 Drednought by Tribute ridden once, and will include a 4A fin.
$750 takes it.
I had fun on it, just a PITA with my living/vehicle situation.

I don't know how you guys have space to store 11' of boar.
Although I guess not having 15 twin fins probably helps. LOL. Wife said yesterday, "there's a lot of boards in the shed [aka boar barn]... can't even walk in there now..."
me: "uh yeah, I am selling a few now"
Well, that's actually part of my problem.
Surfer dude who lives in my building is taking up all the space in the storage room - ground and ceiling - with single fin longboards that he doesn't ride and with the rest of the ceiling space he has 3 bicycles he doesn't ride hanging from the ceiling.
So on top of other things it's a huge PITA to get the thing in and out without hurting my back.
Here is the board:
The only difference is I waxed it. As stated before, ridden once.
Greenough 4A fin included as well as a board bag.
Quite a deal, pretty much a no-brainer if you're interested in gliders.

Is there a cutoff for length?
Christenson and Roy Sanchez the guy who ghosts for him that shaped mine say it's design characteristics to some extent that make a glider, hence they make 9'6 gliders...
IMO, yes. That thing looks like loads of fun for a lined up wave and someone will be very happy.
I don't really have any idea.
This genre is not my forte.
And yes it's quite fun. Easier to surf than I imagined.
