Just wondering what folks are riding at the local beaches these days? Please include your stats and board dims for comparison.

I'm planning on making a new board. I have a 6-10 blank that's been sitting around the garage for years (thanx afoaf...my computer wants to auto correct your user name to "afoul").

My daily driver is a 6-0 x 20 x 2-1/4 twinzer, but it's many years old now. Also, I'm nearly a senior citizen and presently nursing a back injury, which is a first for me. Sucks. Might need more foam. With the 6-0, if it's head high or above I always feel like I'm falling out of the sky on take offs. I prefer to feel in control on takeoff.

MC shot me a text the other day to say howdy. I'm guessing, that he be good as Is most of us pushing up in years, he's got a few creaks n' groans going on but nothing revealing. Hope he and Robyn are well.

Can someone post up the old ET Surfboards ad that had a B+W photo of a series of lefts in south Hermosa, towards the breakwall. Thanks.
