The gig is up.

He should come clean.

Any prospective buyer is potentially an erBB sting operation…the photo and video evidence will make the Album Red pics look like photos of grass growing.

What does he think the consequences are of just coming clean and saying that he was riding a PU shaped by Album Matt?

Agree…just take your medicine and confess to it all. We’re all just a bunch of kooks spending too much time here with this silliness anyway. No harm no foul….

Edit: Nevermind…I take the above comments back. The entertainment value is too great and has been a welcome distraction from my route as I check for updates throughout the day

That would be recipe for disaster taking out the dent-riddled dentist. I’ve taken out a handful on dents on my three Venerials (soon to be four early next week), but it’s a process not without a decent percentage for error. I wouldn’t do it anywhere where my feet routinely go since it weakens the foam’s cell structure a bit.

My daughter’s Venerial Surf Rx that I bought used for $140 was littered with dents. She wanted a pristine bort once she saw me take out a moderate sized one on one of mine and a couple of her bort’s bubbled. I’m not sure if it’s because her’s wasn’t infused glassed, but it is a possibility.

The bubbles did recess to flush, but they discolored to a light yellow color. It was only two out of dozens and they were the two deepest ones.

Any of you duus have a Fascination? I’ve become intrigued by asyms and think that board would be a good intro to them, especially for the mushy BB that I’m so privileged to surf on the regular.

edit: tried searching this thread, but most of the fascination talk is about the fins.

Think that @tedshred5 had one but said he got it too small.

FWIW I really like my 5’9 PU Plasmic asym. Have daydreamed about an varial plasmicEast asym.

I have one, better for descent lined up waves, flatter rocker not the best for quick direction changes. * although got mine used mine is my height and I have the g10 fins which are stiff. I like mine in reef surf chest to littl overhead. Looks like they have revamped the model since mine and would love to check that out, maybe a bit shorter tho

Not sure if you had standard Plas but if so curious if you prefer asym? My Plas has lots of life yet but think East would be my replacement too although It does look like they have added a but of a bump to the standard issue which might be just the trick to add a bit more control to an amazingly fun boar

Oh I forgot there was a plasmic asym. I’ll have to look more into that

The boards in my current rotation have pretty flat rockers (plasmic, winged lightbender and a locally shaped traditional fish) so that likely wouldn’t be an issue. I’d also be getting it 4-6 inches shorter than my height. Was thinking it would be an easy transition from those boards based on Matt’s description on the website.

Twas sarc, I wouldn't advise anyone to use a heat gun on poly or eps. I'd probably say the same for Varial but you guys have some success.
