a teeny bit too small.

Anyone else wondering - the Banjo's Tim dropped off at Katin are a 5'10, 5'8, and 5'6.

i think the 5'10 is gone already. Hoping that 5'8 sticks around till Saturday but Im not holding my breath.
You Happen to get a price on those?

Speaking not waiting, I'm thinking my new slightly slimmer Banjo will be ready right around the new year. Wonder if I can slip a new order in when I pick up.

nah - the other stamps they had on the rack were around 6-650. not to bad. def paying a teeny bit of premium for not waiting but it is what it is.

not in love with the paint and logo on the ones they got in tbh but not a deal breaker.
Yeah, when I see a horizontal stripe or color block like that, I automatically think repaired buckled board. LOL

Now, these Rustlers look like a good time too. is that a new model? Kinda Fuse-ish...

yea not in love with that logo either. my flare is grey and sparse paint like that though as I ordered it - just not hard line cut in half.

Rustlers looking good too. no info on his site about those yet but I think they are quads. let you know how they feel if they still have em on Saturday.

You’re gonna be stoked. no regrets having tim make mine as a slimmer version of my tkf, which was fairly close to stock.

I think in total I shaved 2L and it really didn’t lose any bottom end but gained heaps on the top.

Unless your talking longfish, like >6'4, I don't know about that theory that a tk would give much advantage paddlebattling in a crowd. I haven't surfed my 5'6 tkf in months for that reason.

Watched el portopottie cam for a few min today , its amazing that many people are willing to sit side by side in 1 foot mushy straythaders

It was much less crowded a short walk away, still in view of the mayhem out front from the parking lot... but equally shitty surf. :violin:
