    The stoked vs stocked thread from awhile ago

    Ok I remember seeing a thread along time ago talking about the correct pronunciation of stoked, but I couldn't find it. Not sure why, but the search function here sucks. Anyway, stocked has no g.d. meaning as most of you use it. WTF...Maybe if you said, "right now I'm so stocked up on anal...

    Large fins placed at rear in quad setup

    I saw some vid of Kai Lenny talking about putting the large fins in a qaud at the rear and the small ones in the front. I thought that sounded interesting and i want to try it, unfortunately my quad rear boxes are shallow bases. I can make fins with a shallower base, but I am concerned the...

    Dads blocking for son

    So, I surfed Cottons the other day and while sitting there waiting for the waves a dad(with neon colored wetsuit) and his son paddled near me. There was a lot of sand on the inside moving around so the peaks were a little shifty. Well the dad paddles for a set inside of me so I dont go then he...

    Hard edge rail full length

    Anyone ever ridden a board with a hard edge all the way from tail to nose? I have see a few Maurice Cole boards and they had a hard edge full length, but I never rode one. How do they feel? Ever have issues with the front edge of the rail catching during steep drops?

    S.L. needs to be hacked

    Whenever there is swell and those A-Hats over at surfline dumb it down with their color coding conditions, someone needs to hack their site until they remove that lame color coding. They say there is no evidence that it makes a certain spot more crowded but I say BS. Just throwing this out...

    Surfing with everproper snoops

    Wondering if anyone else has ever tied a haverchamp next to a trobeltude and attached it to the top of your board. Thinking of doing this but I just read in the inertia that Laird tried this but he also used a floopjar and things got super interdasting. Word on the street is that whilst tying...

    So, the wife and I drove up to Santa Cruz this last week and I was able to get out at Steamer Lane for a surf. While I was out there a group of about 10 kids with colored jerseys all paddled out at the same time. After I got out my wife said that she heard other people talking about some guy...

    Surflines rating system and our responsibility as surfers.

    This morning again for I can't count the number of times this has happened to me at various local spots, I planned on riding my bike down to Doho river mouth and catch some small clean waves that I knew would be there. I do a quick camera check on surfline and I see their ridiculous conditions...

    Does board weight really matter that much?

    I have been thinking about this for awhile. How much does the board weight really matter to the average surfer? I am specifically talking about short boards, fishes and hybrids. So if you have a denser foam, 3lbcf Pu I believe, 6 &4oz on the deck and 2x 4oz on the bottom how would this 2-3...
