Though I kinda wished I had an excuse while paddling out on the biggest day. Heading out through the end of the reef there were 6' waves breaking from across the nearby river mouth where normally there was calm water.
Sitting there waiting for the sets to come through...suddenly you're next in line...the next big one to come through is yours...gulp!
Retropete: glad u scored in PI!
Been eying a trip there someday as well.
Your crowd killer is a libtech correct?
I've actually never seen one in the flesh, let alone do the under the arm test. Just don't come across many in my neck of the woods.
Supposedly way more ding resistant and a therefore a great and interesting travel board option in that shape/length for the aging surfer , but how does it feel surfing compared to PU? are they super light??? I don't particularly like that super light deal in better waves, especially with bump and or current..
Thanks!)
Yes it's a Lib tech. It's the same weight as a PU. Feels like a PU to surf. No problem with chop at all. Came through all the flights and handling with zero problems. Went great in the solid stuff. In PI the ding repairs are very cheap but their work can be patchy.
When going to good waves, bring good wave boards.
+1 meant in the nicest way possible.You're being an idiot
When going to good waves, bring good wave boards.
You travel all the way to Indo it turns on and you don't have the right equipment... you will be bummed.
You won't be surfing alone and others will have more foam.
I hope the smile made that obvious.
Bringing my Rusty Twin Fin, wish they had included it, seems mildly similar to the Pyzel.Just take a few twinny's?
Not sure I will be on it on the biggest days, but have ridden mine in some solid overhead Central America surf, felt fantastic, late drops, bigs walls, felt invincible on it.
